Problem/Motivation

Some plugin types might have a LOT of plugin definitions. Menu links is one exampe but block_content could also provide a lot of potential custom blocks,
which would be too much for the derivative system.

Proposed resolution

One possiblity would be a StoragePluginManagerInterface which adds addDefinition()/updateDefinition()/removeDefinition().
The implementations would have to store this data inside a new database table and retrieve data from there.

Remaining tasks

User interface changes

API changes

Does the StaticDiscoveryDecorator not effectively achieve this?

No, this issue is about actually storing the data somewhere.

Data storage is an implementation detail. What happens to the definitions is the manager's problem, not the interface's. Following that logic we could abstract out the methods to a StaticDiscoveryInterface?

Wonder after so many years if this is still a valid feature request. If so should we update the issue summary update.

Version: 10.1.x-dev » 11.x-dev

Drupal core is moving towards using a “main” branch. As an interim step, a new 11.x branch has been opened, as Drupal.org infrastructure cannot currently fully support a branch named main. New developments and disruptive changes should now be targeted for the 11.x branch, which currently accepts only minor-version allowed changes. For more information, see the Drupal core minor version schedule and the Allowed changes during the Drupal core release cycle.
