Shale

Shale is a thin but opinionated abstraction layer over Nate McMaster's excellent DotNetCorePlugins. That library is doing all the hard work of loading the assemblies and types, Shale just provides a slightly easier (and in my opinion, friendlier) reusable API for adding plugin support to your own applications.

Building

Building Shale locally should be pretty simple. Ensure you have the .NET 10 SDK installed, and dotnet available in your PATH.

First, restore required build tools:

dotnet tool restore

Now you can run a build with the Cake script in the repo:

dotnet build.cs
# or to build all artifacts
dotnet build.cs --target=Publish

This will build all the component projects and (assuming you used the Publish target) create all relevant build artifacts in the dist/ folder.
