Support for entry_points? #56
Description
I was looking at the implementation for creating custom collectors and handlers and I was curious if there was any thought or plans to support entry_points rather than inspecting a canonical filesystem location. This approach would make it very easy to make custom/third-party collectors and handlers independently versioned, tested, and installed.
If there is some interest in this, I'd be very happy to help with the effort. Thanks!

Hello @shaunduncan,
The link you posted is now out-of-data but I believe http://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html#dynamic-discovery-of-services-and-plugins points to the same info.
If you are still interested in this, it would be great if you could send an example.
