Bench get-app/install-app with local app folder

Install / Update

Continuing the discussion from Use bench get-app with local repository instead of remote repository:

Hi, I have a local folder that contains application code. It is not a git repository.

I would like to do the following (in frappe-bench as working directory):

bench get-app myapp <path-to-local-folder>
bench --site site1.local install-app myapp

However, the bench get-app command syntax requires a GIT_URL. Is there anyway to get an app from a local folder?

thanks!

To use a local repo, the only thing that worked for me was to use the --soft-link option, and use a normal file path (NOT file://):

bench get-app--resolve-deps /workspace/my_app --soft-link
