Nodeos Plugins

Overview

Plugins extend the core functionality implemented in nodeos. Some plugins are mandatory, such as chain_plugin, net_plugin, and producer_plugin, which reflect the modular design of nodeos. The other plugins are optional as they provide nice to have features, but non-essential for the nodes operation.

Nodeos is modular

Plugins add incremental functionality to nodeos. Unlike runtime plugins, nodeos plugins are built at compile-time.
