Where does script/plugin cache its server list?

Rails

tiring of manually googling for SVN urls then checking out modules into
/usr/share/ruby and linking it into plugins/, ive tried script/plugin
again. it predictable fails here:

./script/plugin install acts_as_ferret
svn: URL ‘svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/rails/plugins’
non-existent in that revision
./script/…/config/…/vendor/rails/railties/lib/commands/plugin.rb:758:in
parse!': undefined local variable or methodname’ for
#Commands::Install:0x2af381b6fa90 (NameError)
from
./script/…/config/…/vendor/rails/railties/lib/commands/plugin.rb:469:in
parse!' from ./script/../config/../vendor/rails/railties/lib/commands/plugin.rb:485:inparse!’
from
./script/…/config/…/vendor/rails/railties/lib/commands/plugin.rb:907
from
/usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:21:in `require’
from ./script/plugin:3

im thinking maybe the laszlo thing is fouling it up, but maybe thats
just a warning? in any case, grep -ir laszlo finds nothing of interest
to prune …

m cracklog # ./script/plugin unsource
svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/rails/plugins
failed: svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/rails/plugins
Removed 0 repositories.
m cracklog # ./script/plugin unsource
svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/rails/
failed: svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/rails/
Removed 0 repositories.
m cracklog # ./script/plugin unsource
svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/
failed: svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/
Removed 0 repositories.

so i guess its write my own plugin script…or figure this out. any
ideas?

That’s not a good answer. It answers the question you asked, but is
irrelevant. What you should do is in the output of

script/plugin -h

That will let you read and write you plugin-sources file and otherwise
manage where you get you plugins.

yeah. i was able to get it going by using the SVN url listed on the
acts_as_ferret page, since the one found in discover wasnt working for
whatever reason…

however,
./cript/console
Loading development environment.

Entity.find_by_contents(“pcp”)
./script/…/config/…/config/…/vendor/plugins/acts_as_ferret/lib/acts_as_ferret.rb:226:
[BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.4 (2006-05-27) [x86_64-linux]
Aborted (core dumped)

i will be announce an ultra-simple and ‘probably not good enough for
discriminating users’ pure-rails search in the next few days, since
ferret segfaults, and acts_as_hyperestraier fails to return results from
its supposedly still intact index (according to its web interface) after
a reboot…

I believe that this error occurs if you have not installed the ferret
gem. This is documented on the “Before Installation” step on this page:

This doesn’t directly answer your question :), but it may be helpful
just the same. Instead of ‘manually googling’ for plugin URLs, go to
http://www.agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/ to
quickly find plugins. Once you found one, you can then run ‘script/
plugin install ’ to fetch and install the plugin.

Maybe one day I’ll get around to writing a nice little UI for script/
plugin that can do the search and let you pick ones to install from
the list. Until then, at least you can save yourself a little bit of
time by using the rails plugin directory I created.
