Private git clone installs for plugins.
-
I setup a private repo on npm, still having same issue this is strange.. Anyone had this issue before?
When you install a plugin and some reason others get removed? Mind you im using Dev atm to make sure everything works maybe theres something wrong with that?
Seems the private NPM installs by cli are still installed, but the ACP installs get removed.
-
@staff So yeah, It seems my bug has to do with ONLY installs by ACP, If i install any plugin by the back end it automaticllay removes all of them EXCEPT for the ones done by cli. Anyone know why this is the case? Uninstalling from ACP is pretty much the same as installing fyi. Unless its from ssh/cli

@joykiller What version of node/npm are you using? I think node v8 does this, I'd recommend going back to the LTS version.
-
@teh_g the reason it happens with node 8 is that npm@5 comes with node 8. This issue is caused by npm@5

Ah thought might have something to do with that.
What node should I use n with for Nodebb? I run it as a service so ill just update the startup link. Currently using the following:
$ npm --version
5.3.0
$ node --version
v8.4.0 -
Node 8 and
npm@5can work with custom plugins, but you should be using[email protected]minimum andnpm link.Let's say you have a directory called
webwith thenodebbdirectory within it. Clone your custom plugin repositories intoweb(so there's, for instanceweb/nodebb-plugin-customized-by-you), and then runnpm linkinside the plugin repository directory, and thennpm link nodeb-plugin-customized-by-youin thenodebbdirectory.
