Hi all,

For my application I'm creating a plugin and a native script. In order to  
keep the codebase together I'd like to register my native script from  
within my plugin, instead of the normal configuration file method. Is this  
possible to do?

Never mind, figured it out myself. Gisted it for anyone else interested.

Gist contains AbstractPlugin class loading in a RestModule and a  
ScriptModule (native script)
