Module System Design (module_manager.py, modules/)

This document details the design and purpose of the module system within the backend, primarily managed by backend/module_manager.py and any abstract base classes or interfaces defined in backend/modules/ (e.g., modules/base.py).

(TODO: Team member to fill this section after reviewing module_manager.py and contents of the modules/ directory.)

Please describe:

  • Purpose of the Module System:

    • Is it designed to allow for pluggable components, extensions, or different strategies for a part of the application?
    • What kind of modules does it manage?
  • module_manager.py:

    • How does it discover and load modules? (e.g., dynamic import, scanning a directory, naming conventions).
    • What are its main functions or classes?
    • How does the rest of the application interact with the ModuleManager to access or use these modules?
  • Module Interface/Base Class (e.g., modules/base.py):

    • Is there an abstract base class or a defined interface that modules must adhere to?
    • What methods or properties does this contract define?
  • Example Modules (if any):

    • Briefly describe any existing modules and what functionality they provide.
  • Application Logic Integration:

    • How does the core application logic (e.g., in main.py/api.py) utilize these modules through the manager?

If your project does not have a significant or distinct "module system" as described, this page may be unnecessary or its relevant content merged elsewhere.
