## Interface PluginProvider<C extends PluginConfiguration>

- All Known Implementing Classes:
    MLPluginProvider

      public interface PluginProvider<C extends PluginConfiguration>

  Pluggable Ignite component.

  Ignite plugins can be loaded using JDK `ServiceLoader` or set up explicitly via `IgniteConfiguration.setPluginProviders(PluginProvider[])`. First method called to initialize plugin is `initExtensions(PluginContext, ExtensionRegistry)`. If `ServiceLoader` approach of plugin loading is chosen, fully-qualified `PluginProvider` class name is used as the service type. And required plugin configuration in this case can be set up via `IgniteConfiguration.setPluginConfigurations(PluginConfiguration...)`.

  See Also:
    `IgniteConfiguration.setPluginProviders(PluginProvider[])`, `IgniteConfiguration.setPluginConfigurations(PluginConfiguration...)`, `PluginContext`
