Support symlinked plugins in the asset PackageManager - #1524
Merged
Conversation
Plugins are commonly symlinked into a project during local development (e.g. to work on a plugin from its own repository). The asset PackageManager resolved each compilable package to its realpath via PathResolver::resolve(), which for a symlinked plugin points outside base_path(). The resulting path was neither registerable (the base_path() existence check failed) nor web-servable (compiled assets live outside the document root), so Vite/Mix packages inside symlinked plugins were silently skipped and their assets never loaded. Resolve plugin packages from the in-project path reported by getVendorAndPluginNames() (which honours symlinks under the plugins directory), and in registerPackage() keep the in-project location when a symlink resolves outside base_path() but the original (symbolized) path is inside it. Adds PackageManagerTest covering in-project registration, symlinked-package registration, and the missing-path error. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <[email protected]>

The symlink handling added in d12e552 changed path resolution for every plugin, including standard installs that never symlink anything. Gate both sites behind "develop.allowDeepSymlinks" so the original realpath behaviour is kept unless symlinked plugins/themes have been explicitly opted into. That config already governs whether symlinks are supported below the first directory level, which is exactly what symlinking an individual plugin or theme into a project requires, and it defaults to false. When the gate is closed, init() skips building the in-project path map entirely and falls back to getPluginPath(), and registerPackage() no longer recovers the symbolized path. Tests cover both sides of the gate, including that an in-project package resolves identically either way and that the handling is inert when disabled.

PackageManager stores package paths using the platform's directory separator, and consumers normalise them at the point of use (AssetInstall::processPackage() does Str::replace(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, '/', ...)). The test expectations were written with hardcoded forward slashes, so they failed on windows-latest with: -'modules/system/tests/fixtures/themes/assettest' +'modules\system\tests\fixtures\themes\assettest' Convert the expected paths to the platform separator before comparing. The symlinked-package assertion gets the same treatment; it currently skips on Windows because creating symlinks needs privileges, but it would fail the same way wherever symlinks are available.

The symlink fallback in registerPackage() built the stored path from the raw $path argument, which carries whatever separators the caller supplied, while the normal branch goes through PathResolver::resolve() and always yields the platform separator. On Windows that produced forward slashes for symlinked packages and backslashes for everything else: -'modules\system\tests\fixtures\wn-symlinked-pkg' +'modules/system/tests/fixtures/wn-symlinked-pkg' Run the path through PathResolver::standardize() first so both branches store the platform separator. This also makes the base_path() prefix check reliable, since a caller-supplied path could otherwise mix separators and fail to match. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>

Problem
Plugins are commonly symlinked into a project during local development (e.g. to work on a plugin from its own repository). The asset
PackageManagerresolves each compilable package to its realpath viaPathResolver::resolve(), which for a symlinked plugin points outsidebase_path().PackageManagerassumes every package lives under the project root, so:base_path()existence check fails and the package is silently skipped (never registered), andVite/Mixbuild the manifest/hot path and the served asset URL from that path — outside the document root, so the browser can't fetch the compiled assets.Net effect: Vite/Mix packages inside a symlinked plugin are dropped and their assets never load, so the plugin renders unstyled despite being enabled.
Fix
getVendorAndPluginNames()(which honours symlinks under the plugins directory) instead ofgetPluginPath()'s realpath.registerPackage()keeps the in-project location when a symlink resolves outsidebase_path()but the original (symbolized) path is inside it — so the package registers and its compiled assets serve from a web-accessible path.Tests
