Rails - Mar 2007 - how to remove a plugin installed with script/plugin install -x

Railsters:

The -x option sets your plugin up as an svn:external, to track updates
automatically.

I tried to remove a plugin, and got this:

$ svn rm naugty-plugin/ --force
D         naughty-plugin/...
...
svn: ''naughty-plugin'' is not under version control

That''s not a good sign. Then I svn ci my project, cap deploy it, and
the plugin (and its ill effects) are still on the server.

How to croak an svn:externalled plugin?

Phillip, what does svn status tell you? Is the plugin listed as an  
external, ala:

X      vendor/plugins/naughty-plugin

if it doesn''t show up this way, then it''s not an external
defined entry.

svn propedit svn:externals vendor/plugins

will allow you to edit the externals directly.

Is it possible that you ran svn remove from the project root? and not  
svn remove vendor/plugins/naughty-plugin?

hopefully the above gets you further ahead. I''m hitting the hay now -  
l8r.

Google for that, aaaand here''s the tip:

http://blog.opensourceconnections.com/2007/02/13/how-to-remove-plugins-installed-as-svnexternals/

The svn propedit svn:externals . --editor-cmd vi done it.

New question: Should that file contain this?

plugin                        ./script/plugin

I nuked it too, cap deploy, and the naughty-plugin didn''t follow me
home
this time!

I been banging on my plugins too much, huh?!

no it shouldn''t. ( I gather you ran that cmd from RAILS_ROOT? )

the format of the externals file is

directory external_path

for instance (all commands run from RAILS_ROOT)

imac:~/Documents/dev/zoop jodi$ svn propget svn:externals vendor/plugins
savage_beast http://svn.nnovation.ca/svn/savage_beast/trunk

means thtere''s a directory under vendor/plugins called
''savage_beast''
that is externally linked to the url above.

one more note, you can use textmate to handled all svn propedits  read:

using_textmate_from_terminal#the_general_editor_variable

cheers,
Jodi
