spyder_io_hdf5 plugin not available

[smjorda]

Description

spyder_io_hdf5 plugin doesn't seem to be registered although h5py installed correctly.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Ensure h5py installed
2. Go to variable editor pane
3. Click import, note lack of .h5 extension being available

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Please provide any additional information below
This code change fixes it (line 51 and down of otherplugins.py):

---

for name in os.listdir(plugin_path):
    # Is this a Spyder plugin?
    if not name.startswith(PLUGIN_PREFIX):
        continue
    # Ensure right type of plugin
    if is_io != name.startswith(IO_PREFIX):
        continue

    # Import the plugin
    _import_plugin(name, plugin_path, modnames, modlist)
