Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.Follow-up Issue
This is a potential follow-up issue to #1903346: Establish a new DefaultPluginManager to encapsulate best practices, which changes the behavior of plugin managers to use a base plugin manager class. The patch in that issue only addresses 5 plugin managers - ArchiverManager, ConditionManager, BlockManager, ConstraintManager, ImageToolkitManager. The rest of the plugin manager classes need to follow the new behavior.
Proposed resolution
This may be done in this issue or this issue may be a meta issue to document individual plugin manager classes listed below:
Remaining tasks
- Write patch(es)
API changes
API changes per #1903346: Establish a new DefaultPluginManager to encapsulate best practices.

BerdirSlightly changing title, we still use discovery and discovery decorators but we no longer use decorators for alter hooks/caching/processing.

BerdirYes, not all of those are plugin managers.
The other issue went in, so work on this one can start.
Have a look at the changes in the other issue to e.g. ArchiveManager and Conditionmanager, it should be quite easy to apply that pattern to the others here. Define the arguments in the corresponding services file, update the constructor and change the class that is being extended from.
You probably want to update only a few at the time and run the tests, make sure to update the list and mark non-plugin managers as such and check those off that are already converted. I think we don't need a meta issue for this, shouldn't be that big. Views is going to be a bit more complicated, and I'd wait with EntityManager for now.

BerdirAdded #2204621: Convert InPlaceEditorManager to DefaultPluginManager and #2204635: Convert ViewsHandlerManager to DefaultPluginManager, #2039435: Convert EntityManager to extend DefaultPluginManager now also has a patch that needs review.
The only left over plugin managers are test implementations, Typed Config which is "special" and therefore not default, Action is blocked on #2155635: Allow plugin managers to opt in to cache clear during module install.
Please review, want to close this issue :)

BerdirAwesome, all done!
Opened #2271363: Remove CacheDecorator and ProcessDecorator to discuss the removal of the decorators that we no longer need/want.
