I have tried everything I can possibly think of to install a rails
plugin without being connected to the internet. Specifically, I’m
wanting to try out the streamlined and active scaffold plugins to
compare the 2 and choose the best one, but my rails app is on a work
machine that is offline. I’ve even tried committing both plugins to my
own svn, as well as make it accessible from an apache web server and
passing it to the script/plugin command as follows:
ruby script/plugin install <path_to_plugin>
However, whatever I’ve tried to set <path_to_plugin> as, ends up
telling me that the plugin is not found.
I’ve scoured the web as best I can and it amazes me that it seems no
one else has had this issue yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
