| | 1 | = CKAN Extensions = |
| | 2 | |
| | 3 | The CKAN codebase is open source so that different organisations can customise it for their own needs. As CKAN has grown in popularity it has become |
| | 4 | especially important to organise the code in a way that can accommodate the customisations which different organisations require without those changes |
| | 5 | interfering with customizations required by other organisations. |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | To meet this need we have introduced the concepts of CKAN extensions, plugin interfaces and workers. These work together to provide a simple mechanism to |
| | 8 | extend core CKAN functionality. |
| | 9 | |
| | 10 | If you create a new extension, please document it here. Implementations of plugin interfaces should be documented separately on the [wiki:Plugins Plugins] page. |
