Question

I want to install awesome_nested_set in my Rails 3 app. This is a plugin, versus a gem. I’ve installed gems but never a plugin.

The awesome_nested_set is here: https://github.com/collectiveidea/awesome_nested_set

But that appears to not be Rails 3 friendly, according to several reported issues.

There is a Rails 3 friendly fork here: https://github.com/FreakyDazio/awesome_nested_set

But I’m not sure how to install this? How do I install this plugin in my Rails 3 app?

Thanks

Answer 1

In Rails 3, install a plugin via:

rails plugin install <path to plugin>

So, for this plugin:

rails plugin install git://github.com/FreakyDazio/awesome_nested_set.git

Using just rails plugin will give you additional information.
