Still a thing?

[f0086]

I wonder if it is still possible to build maubot plugins with go?

• The maubot/plugin-base image is no longer on Docker Hub
• I can not find the maubot.xyz golang package
• This is the only source of information about programming a maubot plugin in go. The official documentation has no information whatsoever.
• This repo seems more like a test? (just 1 commit, 5 years ago)

No, maubot was rewritten in Python due to the limitations of Go's plugin package. https://github.com/maubot/maubot/tree/f06c6dd7676771e740e665bb22ac5d42762fcc62 is the last commit of the old version. I just never got around to rewriting this plugin.

I might eventually add some way to run plugins written in other languages, maybe including some sort of sandboxing, perhaps with wasm.

Thanks for your answer. Maybe archive or delete this repo then?
