In order to extend the functionality of the HDPS system, it is possible to write your own plug-ins and add them to the system. The first step to doing so would be to decide what kind of plug-in you want to write. There are five possible types of plug-ins:
A view plug-in is specifically targeted at visualization of some data. Examples of such plug-ins would be:
- A scatter plot
- An image viewer
- A 3D volume viewer
- A chart or histogram
An example of how to write a View Plug-in is given here: https://github.com/hdps/ExampleViewPlugin
