Adding tabs from plugins

Hi all, I'm pretty new here and I'm also pretty new to Python.

I'm planning this application that would scan a plugins directory on startup and add one tab for each plugin to the main wx.Frame. Now, I got this simple plugin example working, that printed a line from the plugin, but what I need is to somehow import a function from the plugin, into the main wx.Frame class, so that a tab is added in the main window for each plugin with tab capability on initialization. I'm guessing that the plugin function would look something like this:

  1. def tab_setup(self):
  2. self.plugin_name = wx.Panel(self.notebook_1, -1)
  3. self.notebook_1.AddPage(self.plugin_name, "Plugin Name")

And this should somehow be automatically imported from each plugin into the frame class in the main script. Does anyone have an idea on how to do this, or could you point me to some good web page that has similar examples?

Thanks,
Wonkychair
