Convenient way for plugin test

[Thom]

Hi there,

I've had the need for uploaded files to be stored in a Backblaze B2 server. The most recent plugin I can find doesn't seem to work properly and has outdated dependencies, so I'm planning on writing a new one.

However I haven't find a way to easily hot reload the plugin in development and see effects every time I change the code. I had been doing the same routine of code edit, copy paste to the node_modules directory, nodebb build and nodebb dev so many times for the entire day last Sunday. Would anyone be so kindly to help me out, please? I'd be much appreciated.

@Thom Do not copy the code manually to node_modules, use npm link

@josef Thank you. I'll give it a try.
