### Manual Installation of MyBB Plugins
|
|
|
|
This guide describes the process of manually installing MyBB plugins in your Docker-MyBB environment. This can be useful if you want to quickly test plugins or do not wish to execute the Ansible role.
|
|
|
|
#### Steps for Manual Installation
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. **Prepare Plugin Files:**
|
|
- Download the desired MyBB plugin zip files.
|
|
|
|
2. **Copy plugin to host:**
|
|
- ```bash scp <plugin> administrator@<server>:/home/administrator/docker-compose/mybb/plugins```
|
|
|
|
3. **Unzip Plugin Files on the Host:**
|
|
- Unzip the plugin zip files in the host's plugin directory:
|
|
```bash
|
|
unzip /home/administrator/docker-compose/mybb/plugins/<plugin-file>.zip -d /home/administrator/docker-compose/mybb/plugins/
|
|
```
|
|
- Replace `<plugin-file>.zip` with the name of the plugin zip file.
|
|
- Repeat this step for each plugin.
|
|
|
|
4. **Access the Docker Container:**
|
|
- Open a terminal or SSH session on the server where the Docker container is running.
|
|
|
|
5. **Copy Unzipped Plugin Files to the Container:**
|
|
- Copy the unzipped plugin files from the host directory to the Docker container:
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker compose cp /home/administrator/docker-compose/mybb/plugins/<unzipped-plugin-folder> application:/var/www/html/inc/plugins/
|
|
```
|
|
- Replace `<unzipped-plugin-folder>` with the name of the unzipped plugin folder.
|
|
|
|
6. **Restart the Container:**
|
|
- Execute the following command to restart the MyBB container:
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker-compose -p mybb up -d --force-recreate
|
|
```
|
|
- This ensures all changes take effect.
|
|
|
|
7. **Activate Plugins in the MyBB Admin Panel:**
|
|
- Open the MyBB admin panel in your web browser.
|
|
- Navigate to the plugin settings and activate the newly installed plugins.
|
|
|
|
#### Important Notes
|
|
|
|
- Ensure you use the correct paths and filenames.
|
|
- Do not forget to regularly back up your MyBB database and files before making changes.
|
|
- If encountering issues, refer to the MyBB documentation or specific instructions from the plugin author.
|
|
|
|
### Running the Role
|
|
Execute the Ansible playbook containing this role to set up MyBB in a Docker environment.
|
|
|
|
## Docker Compose Configuration
|
|
The `docker-compose.yml.j2` template outlines the services required for MyBB, including the application server, Nginx web server, and database (MariaDB).
|
|
|
|
## Additional Information
|
|
- For detailed configuration and customization, refer to the contents of the `default.conf` template and the `docker-compose.yml.j2` template.
|
|
- Ensure that the environment variables and paths are correctly set as per your system's configuration.
