Hi guys,
I want to use my own music archive as an online catalog for VirtualDJ. Should I do it with plugin or is there some simpler way like implementing an API?

and you can recurse the database, sort it in browser view and then export browser view with selected columns only, in csv or html format
VDJ often have many solutions

With a plugin, maybe, but without, there isn't really any way you can directly handle the search queries you enter into VDJ.
What you can do however is enable logUnseccessfulSearches, parse the TXT file with whatever you want and then do some action like editing the Automix or Sidelist playlist files. I'm not sure when those get reloaded, if at all. It may be that VDJ only reads them at startup and only writes from RAM during runtime, but might be worth a shot.
