Installateur ProCourse

Ce plugin est conçu pour rendre extrêmement simple l’installation de nouveaux plugins sans se connecter au serveur. Il ajoute un écran sous /admin/plugins/procourse-installer qui ressemble à ceci :

À partir de là, vous pouvez entrer l’URL (avec ou sans .git) du dépôt Git du plugin et cliquer sur Installer le plugin. Attendez quelques minutes (environ 5 minutes) que l’installation se termine et vous êtes prêt à partir.

Pour voir tous les plugins que vous avez installés via l’installateur ou pour supprimer un plugin, rendez-vous simplement sur Plugins installés.


Quelques remarques :

  • Ces plugins restent bien après une reconstruction ou un démarrage (bootstrap) de app ou web_only.

  • Il n’a pas encore été testé sur les instances multisites et échouera probablement dans ces scénarios, car le plugin nécessite un accès au répertoire /plugins de l’application pour fonctionner.

  • Les plugins installés s’afficheront bien sous /admin/plugins.

  • Vous POUVEZ mettre à jour ces plugins normalement depuis /admin/upgrade.

  • Lors du développement de ce plugin, nous avons détecté une erreur potentielle lors de la suppression de traductions dans les plugins. Cela peut provoquer l’affichage d’une erreur sur le site si l’utilisateur visite une page où la traduction est utilisée. Cela semble se produire même si vous utilisez admin/upgrade pour mettre à jour un plugin spécifique et que celui-ci a supprimé une traduction. Nous travaillons actuellement à trouver une solution à ce problème.


Prérequis :

  • Vous devez exécuter une installation Docker prise en charge.

  • Le plugin Docker Manager doit être installé.

  • Accès à /admin/upgrade.

Wow! That’s quite an accomplishment! I thought it couldn’t be done. Nice work, @joebuhlig!

EDIT: Here’s a question. If you do a rebuild at the command-line, are the procourse-installer plugins upgraded?

Yes – plugins should get upgraded upon bootstrap.

Just wow!
Nice work!

IMO, this deserves to be in core.

So, would it be worth removing my existing plugins from the app.yml file and moving them to this installer?

I have to admit that I’m conflicted on this one. It would really cool to be in core but if it’s in core, installing plugins will only work on Docker installs and non-multisite installs. That would cause problems for a quite a lot of instances.

Technically, it doesn’t matter. They end up being installed in exactly the same way. This just makes it easier to do.

I assume the challenges associated with getting it to work with multisite are far more complex then getting to set up multisite (which none of my clients have deployed) and I’m saying that from managing over 2 dozen active discourse installations.

It should be easier to include this in the standard app.yml on bootstrap for the standalone installs and not including the same in a multisite/multi container/HA setup.

It could always be part of core (with a big warning label that says “only works with docker”) but leave the current install method available as well.

Even better if there’s a way to detect a compatible installation and hide or show itself as necessary.

The main challenge is precompiling assets and such. We’re effectively adding the repo to the /plugins and then running an docker manager upgrade on that specific plugin. That handles the magic side of it.

But in a multisite, you run into issues because you don’t want one instance to be able to make edits for all instances in the multisite.

How i can uninstall a plugin using ssh? Because i installed Moderator Extension and now I cant put it anymore online, Error 502

Assuming you can’t get to the admin panel:

  1. SSH into the server.
  2. cd /var/discourse
  3. ./launcher enter app
  4. vim /shared/tmp/procourse-installer/plugins.txt
  5. Remove the offending plugin from the file.
  6. exit
  7. ./launcher rebuild app

Cant up online :cry:

Looks like your container isn’t running. Try this ./launcher start app

I think the installer is working fine but I saw this in my error log, not sure if it’s anything but thought I’d might as well bring it up:

NameError (uninitialized class variable @@install_state in ProcourseInstaller::InstallController)
/var/www/discourse/plugins/procourse-installer/app/controllers/procourse_installer/install_controller.rb:4:in `status'

Interesting. Do you have any guesses about what you were doing when that error came to be?

Some 20 or so days ago, I installed this Procourse plugin, and another plugin (I forgot which one was it) thru this plugins interface.
After a few days, I found that many times (say once every few days) my website went dead slow. On those moments, even safe mode opening went equally slow. And after 20-30 minutes I found that the speed of my site became normal.

Although I have not got necessary skills to diagnose the logs, but since the logs’ (or was it sidekiq?) warning section contained ‘procourse’ so many times, I thought it is somehow related to this plugin installed inside/thru procourse plugin. So I uninstalled that plugin from procourse interface.

But yesterday it again (almost) crashed.
I checked and again found the word ‘procourse’ written in many many warnings in logs.

So today I decided and uninstalled procourse too.

Now my fingers are strongly crossed.

Can you share the backtrace of one of those errors? That would help us narrow down where it’s coming from.

Since I have Uninstalled the plugin for the time being. I can have the logs sent only when next occurrence occurs.

(I don’t know if logs are kept for 2-3 days or not, if they are, then I can try).

Thanks.
