Registered on: 2010-11-17 (over 1 year ago)
Current version: 0.3.3
Compatible with: Redmine 1.0.x, 1.1.x, 1.2.x, 1.3.x

Redmine is just plain awesome, and has proven to provide 90% of the functionality I need. The one feature that was missing was a usable knowledgebase component. I've looked at some of the open source solutions available, but couldn't find anything that fit my needs exactly. Seeing as redmine is so easily extended, I figured why not create it for this platform instead of starting yet another project from scratch :P

Installation notes

To download the files for the plugin, run the following command from the Redmine application root directory, as the root user:

script/plugin install git://github.com/alexbevi/redmine_knowledgebase.git

This downloads the files for the plugin from the GitHub repository, and installs them in the $redmine_root/vendor/plugins/redmine_knowledgebase directory.

After the plugin has been installed, you will need to do a db migration to update your Redmine database (make a backup of the database before running this command).

In the Redmine application root directory, run this command as the root user:

rake db:migrate_plugins RAILS_ENV=production

More information on installing Redmine plugins can be found here: http://www.redmine.org/wiki/redmine/Plugins

After the plugin is installed and the db migration completed, you will need to restart Redmine for the plugin to be available.
