Description John 2018-04-12 17:20:42 UTC
In 
System Settings > Search > Plasma Search > plugins 
would be nice to have a GHNS to get new Krunner Search Plugins

Chris, now that you know how to do this, would you be interested in doing it for KRunner plugins?
Comment 2 Kai Uwe Broulik 2018-10-17 06:59:34 UTC
Is this even possible, given KRunner plugins are all binary and as such need to be compiled before use?

We could look into a KRunner JS/QML/Python API (also to ease 3rd party plugin creation) but as of now we don't have that.

Could such an API could also be useful for https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=181552  ?

I made a krunner plugin in a few lines of python and it worked. Like a mini demo.

Since it's possible, is there any news on this?
