You are referring to the webapp side, but this is not enough. We have also the engine side which has to become more pluggable. Agreed. For me, the webapp side is really an interesting option, since it would mean that 3rd parties could write custom code that would consume our existing Java/Engine services (assuming these could be exposed across WARs). In other words, plug custom Java code into Engine (inside-product integration), as opposed to typical scenario where 3rd party system uses Engine REST interface (outside-product integration). In addition, we will probably need to handle all kinds of issues that rise from our singletons at engine - class loading might be an issue here, no? Hm, Java class loaders have hierarchy, so if we put shared Java services (ideally exposed and injectable as CDI beans) into class loader above specific webapp (WAR) class loaders, it wouldn't be a problem. But I can be wrong here. You don't want the X-ton (doubleton, tripleton, etc..) phenomena in your setup - you don't want for example X instances of AsyncTaskManager. I think that in general we should strive to turn engine into way more pluggable/modular than it is now, imagine an engine microkernel (for those of you who did not hear the term microkernel, I am referring you to jboss architecture) - we should have a thin microkernel and the rest of the code should be pluggable, using the extension API (and perhaps web fragments as well).

If the latter: this will catch actions that were performed either via the GUI or outside the GUI; in this case, it would probably be better to use an Engine extension API (solution 0 above) rather than a UI plugin, since it will be more reliable, will be active even when the GUI is not in use, etc. It was meant simply as polling Engine via oVirtJS / REST API. But then again, any UI plugin-based solution has the drawback that web GUI must be active (open) in order for plugin to be active. The disadvantage of 1, and 2, is that WebAdmin GUI must be open.

I would be nice to have a hook for different UI action items, but it isn't available at the moment. There are plenty code samples for UI plugins, most of them available at: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/UIPlugins I must say that I'm not sure webhooks are the right approach for that, as I guess it is relevant only in environments in which one doesn't use the API/CLI/SDK but.. it will be a cool feature!
