Plugins¶

Indico can be extended through plugins, standalone packages of code that do not require any modifications to the Indico core itself. A plugin can perform something very simple such as adding a new command to the Indico CLI to more complex functionalities like introducing new payment methods, chat integration, etc.

We suggest that you first have a look at Getting started and then head over to the more advance topics in the table of contents.

Indico allows you to programmatically access the content of its database by exposing various information like category contents, events, rooms and room bookings through a web service, the HTTP Export API.
