nself plugin

nself plugin

Install, remove, update, and manage ɳSelf plugins.

Synopsis

nself plugin <subcommand> [flags]

Description

nself plugin manages the nself plugin ecosystem. Plugins extend the CLI and your backend stack with new capabilities. Free plugins (MIT licensed) install without a key. Pro plugins require a valid membership license key, set one with �P1� license set.

When you install a plugin, ɳSelf checks your license tier against the plugin’s requirements, downloads the plugin binary and Docker image, registers the plugin with the stack, and prepares database migrations. Run nself build and �P1� restart after installing plugins to include them in the generated docker-compose.yml.

Unknown subcommands are proxied to the matching plugin binary: nself plugin ai <action> calls �P1� <action>. This allows installed plugins to expose their own subcommands through the ɳSelf CLI namespace.
