Topic: How to install plugins in MDB React 6.2.0?

clickstudioltd priority asked 1 year ago


According to the documentation, you can install plugins manually or from the repository. The plugins in the repository are not complete so we have to use the manual way to install plugins to have access to all the plugins.

Since version 6.2.0 the plugins folder is removed from the npm package and the online repository for plugins is still incomplete.

What is the right way of installing plugins from now on?

https://git.mdbootstrap.com/mdb/react/mdb5/prd/mdb5-react-ui-kit-pro-advanced

is that the repo you meant? It seems like there is a plugin folder and nothing has changed in the installation.

Not the UI repository. The repository for plugins at this address https://git.mdbootstrap.com/mdb/react/mdb5/plugins/prd is incomplete. This is the address used by the documentations to install plugins from the repo. Therefore, I prefer to install plugins manually from the plugins folder within the UI repo at this address https://git.mdbootstrap.com/mdb/react/mdb5/prd/mdb5-react-ui-kit-pro-advanced which has all the plugins, but the NPM package of this repo does not include the plugins folder in 6.2.0 anymore. If you look at the .npmignore file inside the repo for version 6.2.0, the plugin folder is ignored for the NPM package.

Oh, I see what you mean. The decision to include it in the .npmignore file was intentional, aligning with the recommended plugin installation guide.

Regarding the plugins repository, I've just checked it, and it appears to be comprehensive and up-to-date. Could you please provide more details about what you perceive as incomplete?

For example, the file upload and wysiwyg plugins are not available in this address https://git.mdbootstrap.com/mdb/react/mdb5/plugins/prd. And it's not just these two plugins, if you compare that address with this address https://git.mdbootstrap.com/mdb/react/mdb5/prd/mdb5-react-ui-kit-pro-advanced/-/tree/master/plugins, you'll see more plugins are missing from the first address.

We apologise for the inconvenience. I have updated the repository accesses on your account. Please check that nothing is missing.

Thanks for the assistance. I can see them all now.


clickstudioltd priority commented 1 year ago

I still don't have access to the file upload plugin.


Mateusz Leciejewski staff commented 1 year ago

I added the missing plugin
