This sounds fantastic! Anything to make it easier to install. I couldn't spot where the linked repo is doing the route injection. Could you point me to the section where this happens? Appreciate it!

Here is the specific commit, there were some followups too

This would still be nice to have. I tried to find documentation for the altered Apache configuration but I couldn't find any. Fortunately, I was able to find some old existing examples on my own systems.

I can't get the EDS plugin to work on 21.11, but I'm having the librarian follow up with EBSCO, as I imagine it's just plugin configuration and nothing Koha specific...

It is pretty frustrating trying to get this plugin to work.

Found the alias at https://koha.katipo.co.narkive.com/GnvGDdb2/eds-plugin-not-loading

Alias /plugin/ "/var/lib/koha/instance/plugins/"

Needed the Location directive as well since Apache didn't want to run those scripts as CGI.
