Plugins: what are they?

Plugins in pyCIF are the elementary block of the python library. They are the basic class on which all other classes are built.

All data and meta-data in pyCIF are stored as attributes of Plugin class instance.

Dependencies and links between each plugin are automatically dealt with, as further explained here.
