Step 1: Plugin registration

Each plugin may be registered with (and later unregistered from) the system.

Plugin registration can only be done by the Bókun staff. Registration is only done once. No two plugins can be registered on the same {hostname, port, path}.

NOTE: once registered, each plugin will be available for configuration to selected vendors in Bókun. If you wish your plugin to be made available to other vendor(s) than your own, please inform Bókun staff about this. Plugin configurations are per vendor and only visible for the vendor who created the configuration. Plugin is expected to reject calls from Channel manager if the incoming configuration parameters are unrecognised by the plugin. See Step 3. plugin configuration for more details on configuring the plugin.
