Gestalt Module

Overview

gestalt-module is a library providing support for "modules" of assets and code. These can be embedded as part of the application, or discovered and loaded at runtime. This, together with a dependency resolution system, provides core support for mods and extensions.

Major features include:

• Runtime discovery of available modules.
• Ability to resolve compatible sets of modules out of a variety of versions and dependencies.
• Secure sandboxing of module code, restricting available classes, packages and permissions.
• Support for optional sets of additional permissions that modules can request.
• Querying of classes and resources within modules.
