Plugin system

[fucksophie]

Plugin system using some scripting language like JS, Python or Lua.

My usecase for this would be discord presence support.

Do you have examples of existing music player apps with a documented plugin system that I could use for inspiration? Might be nice to reuse an existing standard if possible instead of inventing our own.

Media Monkey has the ability to be scripted in JavaScript. MM4 was very well documented on this wiki, but MM5 (current version) is not yet as well documented.

The godfather of music players, WINAMP (winamp), did not just whip the LLAMA's Ass, it also had a ton of plugins. The winamp developer wiki is still online, and here is an overview of the SDK examples with the SDK itself downloadable from the same page.

That SDK (the .exe file) can be unpacked with 7-zip for example. This should also work on other operating systems.
