Autodiscover plugins #99

Closed bkeepers closed 7 years ago

bkeepers commented 7 years ago

When deploying multiple plugins in one instance, it might be nice to just auto-discover plugins from node modules.

One idea for how this would work would be to find any plugins with the keyword probot-plugin in their package.json.

This could make #97 easier, or negate the need for it entirely.

I believe this makes #97 less of a priority if users of probot are expected to be familiar with npm (the CLI). If not, #97 seems like a friendly idea.
