Plugins¶

Redmine 0.6.0 provides basic support for plugins. Redmine plugins can rely on Rails engines to add functionalities to the application.

Installing a plugin¶

1. First, you need to install the Rails engines plugin: http://rails-engines.org/. If you are using Rails 2.0 you will need Engines 2 and also add the Engine boot configuration to environment.rb:

require File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), '../vendor/plugins/engines/boot')

2. Then, copy your plugin directory into #{RAILS_ROOT}/vendor/plugins.

3. If the plugin requires a migration, run the following command to upgrade your database (make a db backup before):

rake db:migrate_plugins

4. Start Redmine

You should now be able to see the plugin list in 'Admin -> Information' and configure the newly installed plugin (if the plugin requires to be configured).

Plugin list¶
