[FEATURE] Extract goofys primitives from internal to make it exstensible?

[philwinder]

Hi there, Would you consider extracting the files that currently reside in /internal into their own packages?

I would like to develop my own Backend but I can't because all of the core code is marked as internal. Thus the only option is to fork.

Thanks, Phil

Hi, what files exactly do you want to me extract into other packages? Do you want some kind of a plugin interface? Beware that backend API will definitely be affected by changes in the future, so there won't be any "stable API"..

Hi @vitalif, yes that's exactly what I mean. Exposing the interfaces required to implement a new backend, or maybe even add functionality to an existing backend. Then allowing that backend to be instantiated by the current "API" code.

So yes, maybe a plugin system. But making them public is an easier first step and allows others to reuse code.

Thanks, Phil
