<p>Hi.</p>
<p>Thanks for the answer. The way you proposed is understood, but is
not inline with buildbot needs, we need specific data to be
available via a REST API.</p>
<p>In reality, we don't need to extend api v2, we want to have there
parallel API but data concept is good to be reused. What is
proposed way to do the extension?<br>
</p>

<div>The idea is, you should not develop a custom extension that
you do not intend to upstream -- that's why there's no
"pluggability" included. Instead, if you have a need to add
functionality, you should write a patch to Buildbot and work
to get it included in the framework itself. So you can extend
the list of submodules by editing the source :)<br>
