Which directory should "bundle install" be run from when installing plugins?

Added by Gary Aitken almost 3 years ago

The install procedure for plugins is generally something like:

cd $REDMINE_ROOT/plugins
git clone <plugin-source>
bundle install
bundle exec rake redmine:plugins:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
touch $REDMINE_ROOT/tmp/restart.txt

Depending on how they are written, it's often not clear which directory one should be in when these commands are executed.
If I execute "bundle install" from the redmine root when installing the additionals plugin, I see one set of gems;
executing it from the additionals plugin directory, I see a different set of gems, some from the top level set but with different (more recent) versions, and some new.
Should "bundle install" be run only from the new plugin sub-directory?
Should the rake task be run from the plugin directory or the top level directory?

Well, it sounds weird to me.

My experience is about 2 years deploying Redmine, writing plugins and hacking third part plugins. I always run bundle install and other scripts from Redmine root directory.
