[bitnami/redmine] Plugins management issue

[tameroski]

Name and Version

bitnami/redmine:5

What architecture are you using?

amd64

What steps will reproduce the bug?

I'm using the docker-compose.yml file provided in the repository.

If I put plugins in the redmine_data/plugins folder, I get an error on docker compose up :

mariadb_redmine  | 2024-02-21 14:38:15 0 [Note] mysqld: Event Scheduler: Loaded 0 events
mariadb_redmine  | 2024-02-21 14:38:15 0 [Note] /opt/bitnami/mariadb/sbin/mysqld: ready for connections.
mariadb_redmine  | Version: '11.2.3-MariaDB'  socket: '/opt/bitnami/mariadb/tmp/mysql.sock'  port: 3306  Source distribution
mariadb_redmine  | 2024-02-21 14:38:15 0 [Note] InnoDB: Buffer pool(s) load completed at 240221 14:38:15
redmine          | redmine 14:38:17.46 INFO  ==> Executing database migrations
redmine exited with code 1

It's working just fine without the plugins.

It looks like the database has to be updated for the plugin installation to work :

bundle exec rake redmine:plugins:migrate RAILS_ENV=production

So if I start the Redmine container, copy the plugins files afterward, and run this command into the Redmine container, it works fine and I can use the plugins in my Redmine instance. The problem is I'll have to do that again each time I rebuild the container, let's say after an image update for exemple.

I'm not very familiar with docker yet, but a solution would be to automate that with a Dockerfile, i guess :

FROM docker.io/bitnami/redmine:5

ENV REDMINE_WORK_PATH=/opt/bitnami/redmine
ENV REDMINE_SHARED_PATH=/bitnami/redmine

# Copy plugins we want to use to shared dir
WORKDIR ${REDMINE_SHARED_PATH}
ADD assets/plugins ./plugins/

WORKDIR ${REDMINE_WORK_PATH}

# Install plugins an restart
RUN bundle config set frozen false && bundle install
RUN bundle exec rake redmine:plugins:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
RUN bundle exec rake restart

But then I get the error below on the redmine:plugins:migrate command

So I might be missing something or there's a bug somewhere. How am I supposed to manage plugin installation and persistence?

What do you see instead?
