Specify the Plugin’s Location

All plugins must be located in the directory specified by the configuration variable proxy.config.plugin.plugin_dir, which is located in the records.config file. The directory can be specified as an absolute or relative path.

If a relative path is used, then the starting directory will be the Traffic Server installation directory as specified in /etc/traffic_server. The default value is config/plugins, which tells Traffic Server to use the directory plugins located in the same configuration directory as records.config. It is common to use the default directory. Be sure to place the shared library hello-world.so inside the directory you have configured.
