I have the generated Xtext web editor working and customized for my DSL. I
am using the Orion editor.

I'm now wondering if it is possible to package this up as an Orion plugin so
that it can be installed on an existing Orion editor.

It is certainly possible, but you will have to write the plugins yourself. The Orion integration shipped with Xtext just uses the Orion editor as a widget, similarly as Ace or CodeMirror are used. The editor services are registered programmatically, without the plugin interface of Orion:

https://github.com/eclipse/xtext/blob/master/web/org.eclipse.xtext.web/src/main/js/xtext/xtext-orion.js

Maybe there will be some reusable Orion plugin code for Xtext in some future release...

Thanks, Miro.

I am currently restrained in terms of time and resource to take this on.

Anybody else up for the challenge? ;-)
