Hmm... you want to make sure that a plugin is installed in a FSH script. Good question... Do you need the plugin to be available, or just installed (and possible not available in the current context.) In reality, you probably really want to check for the availability of the command, yes? I know that the shell throws errors on failure, but I'm not sure there's really a good way to test for that in a FSH script without using a try-catch block somehow.

Perhaps the install plugin should accept a flag to ignore if already installed. Something like: forge install-plugin --skip-installed -Dan On Wed, May 9, 2012 at 8:54 AM, Jason Porter <lightguard.jp(a)gmail.com&gt;wrote: > I want to install the plugin if it's not available. > > > On Wed, May 9, 2012 at 5:39 AM, Lincoln Baxter, III < > lincolnbaxter(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > >> Hmm... you want to make sure that a plugin is installed in a FSH script. >> Good question... >> >> Do you need the plugin to be available, or just installed (and possible >> not available in the current context.)
