I suspect some will answer "Uh, you probably shouldn't be doing that"...
But something like this will work:
from twisted.plugin import getPlugins
from twisted.application.service import IServiceMaker
def getPlugin(name):
for plugin in getPlugins(IServiceMaker):
if hasattr(plugin, 'tapname'):
if plugin.tapname == name:
return plugin
return None
