Installing Plugin Dependencies on `docker-compose up` #41

Closed damanic closed 3 years ago

damanic commented 3 years ago

I have used this docker package on a project with a custom plugin mapped as a volume. This plugin has a bunch of free marketplace plugins listed as dependencies in Plugin::$require .

I was hoping octoberCMS would catch this on install, and add all the dependencies for my Plugin - but it's not that slick.

What is the recommended way to install a list of octoberCMS plugins on docker-compose up?

We typically use git submodules to manage plugins and trigger install using the INIT_PLUGINS=true environment variable set in the docker-compose.

This method works well when you want to keep plugins under version control.

If you're looking to install plugins via the marketplace, I would extend the entrypoint script to run the plugin install commands.
