but still want to reuse he Store class for simplicity.

Add option to source configuration from a file

2014-11-12T22:47:36+00:00

If the configfile:// schema is used, the data is sourced from an ini
style config file instead of being read from a database.

The tables in this data source will be considered read-only and
all modification functions will throw exceptions.

Only 2 and 3 columns tables are supported, and the first column
values must not contain spaces (typically a name/identifier).

The adminconfig db is the only supported one at this time.

Refactor plugin initialization and enablement

2014-11-12T22:47:25+00:00

Move most plugin enablement and initialization code in plugin.py to
reduce code duplication and simplify and unifify plugin enablement
for all base plugin types (login, info, providers).

This patch breaks backwards compatibility as it changes how the list
of enabled plugins is stored in the database tables.

Refactor plugin configuration

2014-11-12T22:47:15+00:00

Fork a PluginConfig class out of PluginObject, the base object now supports
a simple dictionary config, while using PluginConfig provide access to
structured util.config based configuration.

Change UI code that deal with plugins configuration to properly use the new
structured config objects in order to represent data in appropriate format
based on the data type.

Use the new util.config objects to represent plugins configuration.
