Hi, Whenever I need to add a plugin or edit some setting in PuTTy docker I need to rebuild the container. Is there a faster way to edit in Docker without having to rebuild? Best regards Olle

If you add or remove a plugin you must rebuild. Btw consider dropping PuTTY in favour of Windows Terminal.

Developing plugins against a production site will be a very tedious process. I’d recommend you look at setting up a local (or cloud) development environment. We have a few guides over here: [图片] Developing Discourse using a Dev Container Developer Guides Dev Containers is an open standard for configuring a development environment inside a container. This almost entirely eliminates the need to install/configure Discourse-specific tools/dependencies on your local machine, and makes it very easy to keep up-to-date as Discourse evolves over time. Dev Containers can be used in a number of different IDEs, or directly using their reference CLI. This guide will describe the setup process for VSCode.

[图片] Olle11: Is there a faster way to edit in Docker without having to rebuild? It’s not really recommended, but you can do something like cd /var/discourse ./launcher enter app cd /var/www/discourse/plugins/your-plugin-path git pull sv restart unicorn But unless you’re changing something pretty trivial you’ll want to set up a development environment as suggested.

But that’s not going to run any migrations?

I’m assuming that if he doesn’t know any more than he seems to that there aren’t going to be any migrations. :person_shrugging: But, yeah, if it were you, then I would have said to also bin/rails db:migrate And then you’d say “but what about assets?” And I’d say, “Yeah, you need to do that too. Exactly how is left as an exercise to the reader.”

Hmm maybe I should just do it like I use to so I don’t break the site, Is Windows Terminal better to use than PuTTY? Best regards Olle

[图片] Olle11: maybe I should just do it like I use to so I don’t break the site, If you move to a new server, you’ll make no changes to the site until you know the new site works. It’s impossible to break the site.

[图片] Olle11: Is Windows Terminal better to use than PuTTY? Yes, it’s much more modern. Windows Terminal offers multiple tabs, customizable themes, Unicode and UTF-8 support, GPU acceleration, and better integration with modern Windows features compared to PuTTY. Windows Terminal integrates with Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), supports native shell profiles, and allows seamless switching between PowerShell, Command Prompt, and WSL environments within a single window.

在生产站点上开发插件将是一个非常繁琐的过程。我建议您设置一个本地（或云）开发环境。我们这里有一些指南：
