Plugins
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Cutter supports writing plugins in both C++ and Python.
|
|
If you are unsure of which language to choose, starting with Python is strongly suggested as
|
|
it provides a faster and simpler workflow.
|
|
|
|
If you plan to implement support for a new file format or architecture, Cutter plugins are not the correct approach.
|
|
Instead, you will want to implement a radare2 plugin, which is documented `here <https://radare.gitbooks.io/radare2book/plugins/intro.html>`_.

Loading and Overview
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
Plugins are loaded from an OS-dependent user-level directory.
|
|
To get the location of this directory and a list of currently loaded plugins, navigate to Edit -> Preferences -> Plugins.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
The plugins directory contains two subdirectories, ``native`` and ``python`` for C++ and Python plugins respectively,
|
|
which will be created automatically by Cutter.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
The support for Python plugins is only available if Cutter was built with the options ``CUTTER_ENABLE_PYTHON``
|
|
and ``CUTTER_ENABLE_PYTHON_BINDINGS`` enabled.
|
|
This is the case for all official builds from GitHub Releases starting with version 1.8.0.
