How to Get Instance of a Plugin Using Calibre's Plugin Framework？
Is there a method like Source.get_plugin_by_name() to get a specific plugin's instance by its name (although I know it does not exist)?

Because I want to call plugins written by other authors in the plugin I am editing.

Look at the functions in

calibre.customize.ui

they give you access to all types of calibre plugins.
