Walrio Developer Documentation
Walrio is a modular Python application framework designed for extensibility and dynamic module loading. This documentation is intended for developers who want to understand the codebase, contribute to the project, or build modules and extensions.
API Reference
Overview
Walrio follows a modular architecture where functionality is provided through dynamically loaded modules. The core framework handles module discovery, loading, dependency management, and provides a plugin system for extending functionality.
Key Components
Core Framework: The main application framework that handles module lifecycle
Module System: Dynamic module loading and dependency resolution
Addon System: Plugin architecture for extending functionality
GUI Components: Optional graphical user interface modules
Architecture
The Walrio framework is built around several core concepts:
- Modular Design
The application is structured as a collection of loosely coupled modules that can be dynamically loaded and unloaded at runtime.
- Plugin System
Addons provide a way to extend core functionality without modifying the base framework.
- Library Modules
Core functionality is provided through library modules including:
Playlist Management - Handles audio playlist creation and manipulation
Audio Player - Provides audio playback capabilities
Database Operations - Manages persistent data storage
Queue Management - Handles playback queues and ordering
