hi all,

i am currently writing a process/workflow manager based on dokuwiki...
and i am doing this based on several syntax and action plugins, in order
to be able to update dokuwiki easily...

i am starting to get along in dokuwiki... and i have to say that i love
the way the events are implemented!!!

but back to my question:
      * what would be the cleanest way to define common functions for a
        plugin suite?
      * where would you put such a toolbox.php file?
      * is it possible to put several syntax and action plugins in a
        single /lib/plugins/folder?

cheerz... and greetz

Hi,
* Checkout helper plugins. Esther is probably the biggest user of them with her suite of plugins (e.g. Blog). * Make it a helper plugin * Yes. See the plugin reference pages at splitbrain, one describes the plugin file structure. 

e.g. for single plugin

/lib/plugins/<plugin name>/syntax.php

for multiple plugins

/lib/plugins/<plugin name>/syntax/<component name>.php
/lib/plugins/<plugin name>/syntax/<component name2>.php
class names will end with <plugin name>_<component name> (making it inadvisable to use an underscore in your actual plugin name).

PS.  (iirc) Helper plugins are currently only found in DEV version.
