Plugin is the "meta-type" which encompasses the plugins implementation through Callbacks and a Manifest (potentially more to be added). The plugin implementation must have an exported symbol named "Plugin" of this type.

An example of how this will look from the plugin main package:

    package main

    import (
            clicallback "github.com/apptainer/apptainer/pkg/callback/cli"
	           pluginapi "github.com/apptainer/apptainer/pkg/plugin"
    )

    var Plugin = pluginapi.Plugin{
            Manifest: pluginapi.Manifest{
                    Name:        "PluginExample",
                    Author:      "Sylabs Team",
                    Version:     "v0.0.1",
                    Description: "This is an example plugin",
            },
            Callbacks: []pluginapi.Callback{
				       (clicallback.Command)(callbackRegisterCmd),
            },
    }

    func callbackRegisterCmd(manager *cmdline.CommandManager) {
            // Do command registration
    }
