In real world, your plug-in may have some external dependencies. Also, your application might be designed to support plug-ins. All these are your own system requirements. What ABP does is just loading modules on the application startup. What you do inside that modules is up to you.
However, we can provide a few suggestions for some common cases.
### Library Dependencies
For package/dll dependencies, you can copy the related dlls to the plug-in folder. ABP automatically loads all assemblies in the folder and your plug-in will work as expected.
> See [Microsoft's documentation](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tutorials/creating-app-with-plugin-support#plugin-with-library-dependencies) for some additional explanations for that case.
### Database Schema
If your module uses a relational database and [Entity Framework Core](Entity-Framework-Core.md), it will need to have its tables available in the database. There are different ways to ensure the tables have been created when an application uses the plug-in. Some examples;
1. The Plugin may check if the database tables does exists and create the tables on the application startup or migrate them if the plug-in has been updated and requires some schema changes. You can use EF Core's migration API to do that.
2. You can improve the `DbMigrator` application to find migrations of the plug-ins and execute them.
There may be other solutions. For example, if your DB admin doesn't allow you to change the database schema in the application code, you may need to manually send a SQL file to the database admin to apply it to the database.
