6.2 Creating Plugins

Using the PSE plugin API, you can create your own modules that appear under the pse.plugins package for use in your applications. Some examples of user created plugins include:

A new ``session'' module that uses an SQL database instead of DBM.
A module to handle pooling of persistent database connections.
A special Form handling module that can read and write form elements in different ways.

Since plugin modules have access to the original apache request through mod_python, you are only limited by the limits of mod_python itself when writing your own plugins.
