Building plugin with other plugins

[AndreKR]

Sorry to create an issue because this is more of a usage question but it's really not obvious so one could say this is a request for improved documentation. :)

When I use xcaddy from the plugin directory to build Caddy with my plugin, how do I include other plugins at the same time? I tried xcaddy --with github.com/mholt/caddy-events-exec run but that just says Error: unknown flag: --with.

I'm not sure that's possible right now, but it would make sense to include.

But what you can do instead is use xcaddy build and do module replacement with the = syntax, then run that binary. Two commands instead of one, but it's more flexible.

Yeah, I use build and then with to include both plugins: the current one (using =. To replace it with the local copy) and the other one.
