Discussion - Plugin Packages

[devjain32]

Currently, all of Corsair's plugins are imported from the main corsair package. This is a really nice DX because it allows you to do something like this:

import { createCorsair, github, slack, gmail } from 'corsair'

const corsair = createCorsair({
    ...,
    plugins: [github(), slack(), gmail()],
})

With 30 integrations, this means our package size is 15 mb already. This is unsustainable, especially as we scale to 1,000 integrations. We are

Our long-term option is to split up packages by plugins. In my opinion, this degrades DX a bit. It means you have to do this:

import { createCorsair } from 'corsair'
import { github } from '@corsair-dev/github'
import { gmail } from '@corsair-dev/gmail'
import { slack } from '@corsair-dev/slack'

const corsair = createCorsair({
    ...,
    plugins: [github(), slack(), gmail()],
})

This is not ideal, so we're considering peerDependencies + lazy re-exports. Better DX, smaller package size.

This discussion aims to update the community on progress to dramatically reduce package size and maintain the best experience for developers and agents.
