Most plugins carry all the code they need and have a simple install. Those two you tried to use need to fetch gems (libraries) from the internet to able to function.
do you know where in the code those ruby gem fetches for plugins happen? I tried looking for it but havenât found the right place yet.
Iâm thinking maybe instead of using cached gems maybe it would be more elegant to run a rubygems mirror on the isolated host, i found a tutorial here and it looks like you can configure extra system-wide gem sources
Our internal Discourse has happily been running the same old version for a good long while now, but we are finally getting rid of IE9 so itâs way overdue for an upgrade.
I can report that this guide is still good with the latest versions of Discourse. Even with RHEL8 instead of 7 
While experimenting I figured out a way to get those discourse-prometheus and discourse-calendar plugins working offline too even with the extra dependencies, the trick was to fish out the ruby gems from the plugin directory of the build server as well as the ones in /var/www/discourse/vendor/bundle/ruby
docker run -it -v ~/local/rubygems.org:/local-rubygems local_discourse/app /bin/bash -c "cp -rv /var/www/discourse/vendor/bundle/ruby /local-rubygems"
docker run -it -v ~/local/rubygems.org/plugin-gems/discourse-calendar:/local-rubygems local_discourse/app /bin/bash -c "cp -rv /var/www/discourse/plugins/discourse-calendar/gems /local-rubygems"
docker run -it -v ~/local/rubygems.org/plugin-gems/discourse-prometheus:/local-rubygems local_discourse/app /bin/bash -c "cp -rv /var/www/discourse/plugins/discourse-prometheus/gems /local-rubygems"
and then in /templates/web.template.yml :
- exec:
cd: $home
hook: bundle_exec
cmd:
# copy local ruby cache
- cp -rv /local-rubygems.org/ruby/* $home/vendor/bundle/ruby/
- cp -rv /local-rubygems.org/plugin-gems/* $home/plugins/
- su discourse -c 'bundle install --local --deployment --retry 3 --jobs 4 --verbose --without test development'
By the way it looks like the topic for Active Directory IIS SSO got lost at some point, but the code is still available at GitHub - laktak/discourse-sso: Single Sign On for Discourse with Active Directory and still works with the now renamed DiscourseConnect SSO
Ho provato un altro aggiornamento e sembra che a un certo punto sia stata aggiunta una nuova sezione âyarn installâ a web.template.yml che si rompe allâinterno dellâambiente isolato.
- exec:
cd: $home
cmd:
- "[ ! -d 'node_modules' ] || su discourse -c 'yarn install --production && yarn cache list'"
Confrontando i contenuti del vecchio e del nuovo container, sembra che ci siano un sacco di pacchetti yarn memorizzati nella cache nel nuovo in /usr/local/share/.cache/yarn/v6 ma niente nel vecchio, immagino che tutti i node.js richiesti fossero inclusi nellâimmagine di base ma ora vengano aggiornati durante una ricompilazione?
Sperimenterò copiando la cache di yarn nello stesso modo della cache ruby e vedrò se riesco a far usare a yarn i pacchetti memorizzati nella cache dalla build box.
