Remove the gem about spree_static_content HOT 4 OPEN

please check vendor directory, and remove the like related with the error @D7na

from spree_static_content.

Hello, is there a procedure to un-install the gem? Do we need to manually remove tables from database, or remove some .rb files? Thanks.

from spree_static_content.

We need a way of deleting this gem. It makes deployments take about five times as long and it leaves behind a bunch of things that destroy migrations.

from spree_static_content.

To remove the Gem you will need to reverse some steps.

You can see what the current install task does here:
https://github.com/spree-contrib/spree_static_content/blob/master/lib/generators/spree_static_content/install/install_generator.rb

If you can find the commit when you added the gem that may be the best indicator. It's possible you may have updated the gem and more is required, than the initial commit.

Removing the Spree Static Content Plugin

1. Remove the gem from Gemfile
2. Run bundler to update the Gemfile.lock
3. Remove *= require spree/frontend/spree_static_content from: vendor/assets/stylesheets/spree/frontend/all.css
4. Create a new migration bin/rails g migration RemoveSpreeStaticContentPlugin
5. Add the following to the migration

class RemoveSpreeStaticContentPlugin < ActiveRecord::Migration[6.0]
  def up
    drop_table :spree_pages
    drop_table :spree_pages_stores
  end

  def down
    raise ActiveRecord::IrreversibleMigration
  end
end

6. Run migrations bin/rails db:migrate, make sure everything still works, commit, push up. NOTE: this is irreversible as the code shows above.

Note:

Currently these are the two tables that are being created.
You could add this to a fresh project to see what is added, or find the commit that you added the plugin to your project and what changed at the time; it's possible updates changed it from there out.
You can also see what migrations were ran here ideally too:
