Hi,
We are looking to develop several custom plugins for FreeIPA. Could anyone please advise on any documentation guidelines on FreeIPA plugin development?
Thanks, Yuri

I'm in the same boat. The current documentation leaves a lot to be desired. Most resources you find are terribly outdated. Thanks Josh

There are two sources that stay more or less up to date:
- FreeIPA source code - My plugins at https://github.com/abbra/
The last is a shameless plug but I try to keep them up to date with the current state of plugin development and packaging I do as part of my day to day job.
For the source code, an easy way to explore the documentation we already have is to start with pydoc:
pydoc ipalib
this will give you an overview of a plugin infrastructure and parameters.
All commands that operate on objects in LDAP are built on top of classes provided by ipaserver.plugins.baseldap, so 'pydoc ipaserver.plugins.baseldap' would give you a basic view of how it is structured. Any specific plugin's code in ipaserver/plugins/*.py would serve as an example.
I'd recommend to look at simple plugins in my github tree to understand how you can amend some aspects: https://github.com/abbra/freeipa-userstatus-plugin/
If you want a bit more complex example, https://github.com/abbra/freeipa-desktop-profile gives a fully working sample that stores two different objects in LDAP and even has managed entries plugin integration for bridging them together under specific complex access controls.
Even more harcode is https://github.com/abbra/freeipa-adusers-admins
