# plugin
Create a Nx Plugin
## Usage
```bash
nx generate plugin ...
```
By default, Nx will search for `plugin` in the default collection provisioned in `angular.json`.
You can specify the collection explicitly as follows:
```bash
nx g @nrwl/nx-plugin:plugin ...
```
Show what will be generated without writing to disk:
```bash
nx g plugin ... --dry-run
```

```bash
nx g plugin my-plugin --directory=plugins --importPath=@myorg/my-plugin
