Calibre Plugin with External Dependencies

ClashTheBunny · 06-22-2015, 11:14 AM

Is there a standard way of bundling external dependencies with a plugin?

How would the compilation step happen? Do I need to compile it for every supported platform and then zip it? Are eggs the solution? How do I include the dependencies of the dependencies?

You will have to compile it and all its dependencies (that are not already part of calibre) for every platform. calibre includes no native code compilers.
