Rails - Nov 2005 - rake load_fixtures task doesn't load fixtures in plugins?

I''ve got the login_engine plugin installed which has a fixtures for
''users''.

When I load ''rake load_fixtures'', it doesn''t seem to
load the
login_engine''s fixtures into the development database.

Should it?  Or should it be another rake task?  (i.e. rake load_plugin_fixtures)

In any event, here''s the additional rake task that will load all
plugin fixtures:

desc "Load plugin fixtures into the current environment''s
database"
task :load_plugin_fixtures => :environment do
  require ''active_record/fixtures''
  ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(RAILS_ENV.to_sym)
  Dir.glob(File.join(RAILS_ROOT, ''vendor'',
''plugins'', ''*'', ''test'',
''fixtures'', ''*.yml'')).each do |fixture_file|
    Fixtures.create_fixtures(File.dirname(fixture_file),
File.basename(fixture_file, ''.*''))
  end
end

Since engines are a special-case plugin ''type'', it''s
unlikely that the
default rake tasks would support them. However, I can see it being a
bit of a grey area, since testing plugins *is* supported.

Regardless - I''ll add this task to the Engine plugin so it is
available to everyone using engines, thanks Joe

I think that task should work for all plugins that have fixtures, engines or no.
