(easy:) Installing plugin from folder

rubyonrails-talk

Can't find any details on this on the web, so I try on the forum.

For whatever reason, "ruby script/plugin ..." doesn't work for me. What i then do is:

1. Download the plugin (.zip), unzip it. 2. Place the folder in vendor/plugins 3. ?

How do I install the plugin from here? I know the plugin wants some controllers to be made, some migration to do etc. How do I run the thing?

:smiley:

Some plugins have an install.rb which script/plugin would run for you. (my hunch here though is that the plugin provides a generator (or several) and that it's up to you to run it)

Solved.

(This forum needs the ability to quickly move solved topics from the topics-list) (And the ability to edit posts, wtf?)

it's a mailing list - moving topics/editing them is meaningless.
