Can't make ApiGenerator to work

I downloaded ApiGenerator from GitHub and pasted it inside app/Plugin/ApiGenerator, and edited the bootstrap to CakePlugin::load('ApiGenerator');. Then I wanted to do the next step, that is going to cake console and input the following line:

cake ApiGenerator.ApiIndex initdb

But it returns me the following error message:

Error: Plugin ApiGenerator could not be found.

I changed the bootstrap to CakePlugin::loadAll(); but still I got the same error. I tried to change the line cake ApiGenerator to cake DebugKit (which I have installed and working) to see if it's just ApiGenerator or not, but it shows me the same error, which means that the cake console isn't recognizing any plugin, although I have DebugKit successfully operating.

So, any ideas what is wrong with ApiGenerator? Is there a way (a variable or something) that can tell me which plugins are already operating?

Solution

  • Ok, found the answer myself, lol. Refering to this post: CakePHP AclExtras Plug In not found, it was cake console's fault on windows.

    For those who run on the same luck, just add the path to app folder. That means:

    cake -app "C:\www_dir\cake_project\app" ApiGenerator.ApiIndex initdb

    Hooray me!
