[feature] Plugin storage

[ykaridi]

Describe your idea

Hi,
I am writing a plugin for JADX to allow synchronization of symbols across multiple users & connect to JEB users as well. Is there a way for plugins to store data associated with a JADX project? In JEB the analogue would be com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.units.IMetadataManager

Thanks!

No, this is not possible for now.
I will add API for store objects in jadx project file.
Also, it may be helpful to add API allowing to store raw files in jadx config directory.

Is there perhaps a way to store informations coupled with a method/function/class object? Persistent annotations or something of the sort? what is saved in the jadx project file except for names?

[ykaridi]

Is there anything new?

@ykaridi sorry, no updates 😭
Also, storing metadata for nodes is slightly different from what I understand at first. And that change require a lot of refactorings, because jadx already have similar functionality, but it is not universal and store only specific data (renames and comments).
