another question, when will the Plugin API documentation land? https://docs.avohq.io/3.0/plugins.html is pretty empty 🙈
l
done!
added more information about plugins
thanks for the nudge Julian
please let us know if you need more info or want to jump on a call or something to talk more about it

thanks Adrian
great stuff. yeah a call probably wouldn't hurt ... my client is essentially asking for a way to add fields to a User model from the backend. this will probably boil down to managing a JSONB column because I can't have them issue a migration over thousands of records, but I wanted to evaluate all the options I have.
(actually it's not the User model itself but a join table)
l
uuuh. sexy!
we have a customer who made Avo into a no-code tool with that same approach
with a jsonb column
also, they went super deep with custom developed scopes, views, filters and more
so it is doable

nice! any insight you can share would be greatly appreciated. the issue I foresee is with validations... I think
store_model
would allow that, but it would still mean having to add some code for that
(btw this project will likely include the purchase of an Avo pro license)
l
I don't knwo the specifics, but definitely figured out the validation aspect
I'll try to ask about it on the next call
let me know when you want to jump on a call
