rake_plugins

Simple Rails 3 plugin management using Rake.

In your Gemfile:

gem "rake_plugins", :git => "git://github.com/nragaz/rake_plugins.git"

Adds the following Rake tasks:

plugin:list
plugin:install[<source>]
plugin:update[<name>]
plugin:update_all
plugin:remove[<name>]

Installed plugins and their sources are tracked in vendor/installed_plugins.yml.

You can also copy installed_plugins.yml from one app to another and then run plugin:update_all. Or, don't check in vendor/plugins -- just run plugin:update_all after deploy.

Yes, nobody uses plugins anymore. Except for Moonshine. So there you go.
