How to uninstall a plugin in Rails
February 17th, 2009
This one is simple, but I couldn’t find a decent google result for it.
Before you uninstall the plugin, you have to get its name … go to the vendors directory in your app folder and get the name of the folder
In this case the name of the plugin is “active_scaffold”
Go to the directory of the app you want the plugin removed from and type in
ruby script/plugin remove active_scaffold
or if you’re on a Linux box
./script/plugin remove active scaffold

Or you can just delete the folder

True … but *some* plugins have database altering calls in install.rb that you would not be able to cleanly roll back if you did just that
