Plugin

To add new plugin, you can just place a <your_service>.rb in /lib/upstream_notifier/plug.

Make sure it defines a class named "Your_service" (first letter capitalized), which provides an initialize function with parameters url,version,*args and a get function that returns the new release number.

You can reuse any plugin that presents, example see our fcitx plugin which reused the github plugin.
