# Adding a Multimodal Plugin
|
|
|
|
This document teaches you how to add a new modality to vLLM.
|
|
|
|
Each modality in vLLM is represented by a {class}`~vllm.multimodal.MultiModalPlugin` and registered to {data}`~vllm.multimodal.MULTIMODAL_REGISTRY`.
|
|
For vLLM to recognize a new modality type, you have to create a new plugin and then pass it to {meth}`~vllm.multimodal.MultiModalRegistry.register_plugin`.
|
|
|
|
The remainder of this document details how to define custom {class}`~vllm.multimodal.MultiModalPlugin` s.
