Using ScanCode Plugins

[ChinnuJose]

I have to search for certain keywords during the Scanning. Is there any in build plugin for these or is it possible to use certain kind of plugins for searching the Keywords.
Is there any documentation/samples for using plugins?
I have gone through: https://github.com/nexB/scancode-toolkit/wiki/Plugin-architecture , but would prefer something which gives more clarity.

Installed ScanCode 3.0.2 in linux

@ChinnuJose there is no plugin yet, but there is definitely interest to add this feature! not only from you but also from @ummer9987 in #1751

I suggest we have a chat online on Gitter on the details together to hammer a design!
The chat room is at https://gitter.im/aboutcode-org/discuss

Hi , I have commented same in the chat. Is it like if we make changes in the Python scripts which is there in the scan code or add these special characters as some rules /license will this will wok & show the added keyword/rules/license?

@ChinnuJose let's chat as I would need to understand how would a keyword search be related to license detection and ruels
