Get Started with Custom Plugins
This section takes you through the development process of creating a Custom Go Plugin.
At the end of this process you will have a Tyk environment running locally and a simple Go plugin executing on each API request.
Go plugins are the recommended plugin type and suitable for most use cases.
Prerequisites
- docker & docker-compose
- A Tyk license (if using Self-Managed Tyk, which will make the process easier via UI)
- Make
- OSX (Intel) -> Not a prerequisite, though these steps are tested on OSX Intel/ARM
This tutorial will take between 15-20 minutes.
