## 🔌 Plugin Interface

### Abstract Base Class

```python
from mjr_am_backend.features.metadata.plugin_system.base import (
    MetadataExtractorPlugin,
    ExtractionResult,
)

class MyExtractor(MetadataExtractorPlugin):
    @property
    def name(self) -> str: ...

    @property
    def supported_extensions(self) -> list[str]: ...

    @property
    def priority(self) -> int: ...

    async def extract(self, filepath: str) -> ExtractionResult: ...
```

### Plugin Lifecycle

1. **Discovery** - Scan plugin directories for `.py` files
2. **Validation** - Security check (no eval, exec, os.system, etc.)
3. **Loading** - Import module, instantiate extractors
4. **Registration** - Register in loader and registry
5. **Runtime** - Handle extraction requests
6. **Cleanup** - Release resources on unload

---

## 🔒 Security Features

### Validation Checks

| Check | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| **Pattern-based** | Blocks dangerous patterns (eval, exec, subprocess) |
| **AST-based** | Analyzes imports and function calls |
| **File size** | Max 1MB per plugin |
| **Complexity** | Warns on high complexity (>50 functions) |

### Blocked Patterns

```python
# Code execution
eval(), exec(), compile()

# OS access
os.system(), os.popen(), subprocess.*

# Network access
socket.*, requests.*, urllib.*

# Unsafe deserialization
pickle.load(), marshal.load()
```

### Validation Modes

- **strict** - Fail on any warning (default)
- **permissive** - Fail only on critical issues
- **disabled** - No validation (not recommended)

---

## 📊 Features

### Plugin Loader

- ✅ Auto-discovery from multiple directories
- ✅ Security validation before loading
- ✅ Priority-based extractor selection
- ✅ Hot-reload support
- ✅ Error tracking and reporting
- ✅ Plugin information tracking

### Plugin Registry

- ✅ State persistence (JSON config)
- ✅ Enable/disable plugins
- ✅ Statistics tracking (extractions, errors, confidence)
- ✅ Performance metrics (avg extraction time)
- ✅ Import/export configuration

### Plugin Manager

- ✅ Lifecycle management (init, shutdown)
- ✅ Extraction with fallback support
- ✅ Event hooks (on_extract, on_error)
- ✅ Statistics and monitoring
- ✅ Hot-reload capability

---

## 🔧 Integration Steps

### Step 1: Modify MetadataService

```python
# mjr_am_backend/features/metadata/service.py

from .plugin_system.manager import PluginManager

class MetadataService:
    def __init__(self, exiftool, ffprobe, settings, plugin_dirs=None):
        # Existing initialization
        self.exiftool = exiftool
        self.ffprobe = ffprobe
        self.settings = settings

        # NEW: Initialize plugin system
        self.plugin_manager = PluginManager(
            plugin_dirs=plugin_dirs,
            config_path=INDEX_DIR_PATH / "plugin_config.json"
        )

    async def extract_metadata(self, filepath: str, file_type: str):
        # NEW: Try plugin extractors first
        result = await self.plugin_manager.extract(
            filepath,
            fallback_extractor=lambda fp: self._extract_with_builtin(fp, file_type)
        )

        if result.success:
            return result.data

        # Fallback to built-in extractors
        return await self._extract_with_builtin(filepath, file_type)
```

### Step 2: Add API Routes

```python
# mjr_am_backend/routes/handlers/plugins.py

from aiohttp import web

def register_plugin_routes(routes: web.RouteTableDef):
    @routes.get("/mjr/am/plugins/list")
    async def list_plugins(request):
        services = request.app["services"]
        metadata = services.get("metadata")
        plugins = metadata.plugin_manager.list_plugins()
        return web.json_response({"ok": True, "data": plugins})

    @routes.post("/mjr/am/plugins/{name}/enable")
    async def enable_plugin(request):
        name = request.match_info["name"]
        services = request.app["services"]
        metadata = services.get("metadata")
        success = metadata.plugin_manager.enable_plugin(name)
        return web.json_response({"ok": success})

    @routes.post("/mjr/am/plugins/reload")
    async def reload_plugins(request):
        services = request.app["services"]
        metadata = services.get("metadata")
        count = await metadata.plugin_manager.reload()
        return web.json_response({"ok": True, "data": {"reloaded": count}})
```

### Step 3: Register Routes

```python
# mjr_am_backend/routes/registry.py

from .handlers.plugins import register_plugin_routes

def register_all_routes():
    # ... existing route registrations
    register_plugin_routes(routes)
```

---

## 🧪 Testing Strategy

### Unit Tests

```python
# tests/plugins/test_plugin_loader.py

class TestPluginLoader:
    def test_discover_plugins(self, tmp_path):
        loader = PluginLoader([tmp_path])
        count = loader.discover_plugins()
        assert count > 0

    def test_get_extractor_by_priority(self, tmp_path):
        loader = PluginLoader([tmp_path], auto_discover=False)
        loader.register_extractor(HighPriorityExtractor())
        loader.register_extractor(LowPriorityExtractor())

        extractor = loader.get_extractor("test.png")
        assert extractor.priority == 100  # Highest priority
```

### Integration Tests

```python
# tests/plugins/test_plugin_integration.py

class TestPluginIntegration:
    @pytest.mark.asyncio
    async def test_plugin_extraction(self, metadata_service):
        result = await metadata_service.extract_metadata("test.png", "image")
        assert result.get("success") is True
```
