RubyGems Plugins¶ ↑
RubyGems will load plugins in the latest version of each installed gem or $LOAD_PATH. Plugins must be named ‘rubygems_plugin’ (.rb, .so, etc) and placed at the root of your gem’s require_path. Plugins are installed at a special location and loaded on boot.
For an example plugin, see the Graph gem which adds a gem graph
command.
RubyGems Defaults, Packaging¶ ↑
RubyGems defaults are stored in lib/rubygems/defaults.rb. If you’re packaging RubyGems or implementing Ruby you can change RubyGems’ defaults.
For RubyGems packagers, provide lib/rubygems/defaults/operating_system.rb and override any defaults from lib/rubygems/defaults.rb.
For Ruby implementers, provide lib/rubygems/defaults/#{RUBY_ENGINE}.rb and override any defaults from lib/rubygems/defaults.rb.
If you need RubyGems to perform extra work on install or uninstall, your defaults override file can set pre/post install and uninstall hooks. See Gem::pre_install
, Gem::pre_uninstall
, Gem::post_install
, Gem::post_uninstall
.
Bugs¶ ↑
You can submit bugs to the RubyGems bug tracker on GitHub

-The RubyGems Team
Provides 3 methods for declaring when something is going away.
+deprecate(name, repl, year, month)+:
Indicate something may be removed on/after a certain date.
+rubygems_deprecate(name, replacement=:none)+:
Indicate something will be removed in the next major RubyGems version, and (optionally) a replacement for it.
rubygems_deprecate_command
:
Indicate a RubyGems command (in +lib/rubygems/commands/*.rb+) will be removed in the next RubyGems version.
Also provides skip_during
for temporarily turning off deprecation warnings. This is intended to be used in the test suite, so deprecation warnings don’t cause test failures if you need to make sure stderr is otherwise empty.
Example usage of deprecate
and rubygems_deprecate
:
class Legacy def self.some_class_method # ... end def some_instance_method # ... end def some_old_method # ... end extend Gem::Deprecate deprecate :some_instance_method, "X.z", 2011, 4 rubygems_deprecate :some_old_method, "Modern#some_new_method" class << self extend Gem::Deprecate deprecate :some_class_method, :none, 2011, 4 end end
Example usage of rubygems_deprecate_command
:
class Gem::Commands::QueryCommand < Gem::Command extend Gem::Deprecate rubygems_deprecate_command # ... end
Example usage of skip_during
:
class TestSomething < Gem::Testcase def test_some_thing_with_deprecations Gem::Deprecate.skip_during do actual_stdout, actual_stderr = capture_output do Gem.something_deprecated end assert_empty actual_stdout assert_equal(expected, actual_stderr) end end end

Public Class Methods
The number of paths in the +$LOAD_PATH+ from activated gems. Used to prioritize -I
and ENV['RUBYLIB']
entries during require
.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 572 def self.activated_gem_paths @activated_gem_paths ||= 0 end
Add a list of paths to the $LOAD_PATH at the proper place.

Find
the full path to the executable for gem name
. If the exec_name
is not given, an exception will be raised, otherwise the specified executable’s path is returned. requirements
allows you to specify specific gem versions.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 235 def self.bin_path(name, exec_name = nil, *requirements) requirements = Gem::Requirement.default if requirements.empty? find_spec_for_exe(name, exec_name, requirements).bin_file exec_name end

Clear default gem related variables. It is for test
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 1249 def clear_default_specs @path_to_default_spec_map.clear end
Reset the dir
and path
values. The next time dir
or path
is requested, the values will be calculated from scratch. This is mainly used by the unit tests to provide test isolation.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 314 def self.clear_paths @paths = nil @user_home = nil Gem::Specification.reset Gem::Security.reset if defined?(Gem::Security) end
The path to standard location of the user’s .gemrc file.

Quietly ensure the Gem directory dir
contains all the proper subdirectories. If we can’t create a directory due to a permission problem, then we will silently continue.
If mode
is given, missing directories are created with this mode.
World-writable directories will never be created.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 408 def self.ensure_gem_subdirectories(dir = Gem.dir, mode = nil) ensure_subdirectories(dir, mode, REPOSITORY_SUBDIRECTORIES) end

Finds the user’s config file
# File lib/rubygems/defaults.rb, line 121 def self.find_config_file gemrc = File.join Gem.user_home, ".gemrc" if File.exist? gemrc gemrc else File.join Gem.config_home, "gem", "gemrc" end end
Find
a Gem::Specification
of default gem from path
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 1234 def find_default_spec(path) @path_to_default_spec_map[path] end
Returns a list of paths matching glob
that can be used by a gem to pick up features from other gems. For example:
Gem.find_files('rdoc/discover').each do |path| load path end
if check_load_path
is true (the default), then find_files
also searches $LOAD_PATH for files as well as gems.
Note that find_files
will return all files even if they are from different versions of the same gem. See also find_latest_files
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 472 def self.find_files(glob, check_load_path=true) files = [] files = find_files_from_load_path glob if check_load_path gem_specifications = @gemdeps ? Gem.loaded_specs.values : Gem::Specification.stubs files.concat gem_specifications.map {|spec| spec.matches_for_glob("#{glob}#{Gem.suffix_pattern}") }.flatten # $LOAD_PATH might contain duplicate entries or reference # the spec dirs directly, so we prune. files.uniq! if check_load_path files end
Returns a list of paths matching glob
from the latest gems that can be used by a gem to pick up features from other gems. For example:
Gem.find_latest_files('rdoc/discover').each do |path| load path end
if check_load_path
is true (the default), then find_latest_files
also searches $LOAD_PATH for files as well as gems.
Unlike find_files
, find_latest_files
will return only files from the latest version of a gem.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 509 def self.find_latest_files(glob, check_load_path=true) files = [] files = find_files_from_load_path glob if check_load_path files.concat Gem::Specification.latest_specs(true).map {|spec| spec.matches_for_glob("#{glob}#{Gem.suffix_pattern}") }.flatten # $LOAD_PATH might contain duplicate entries or reference # the spec dirs directly, so we prune. files.uniq! if check_load_path files end

an unresolved Gem::Specification
of default gem from path

# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 220 def self.finish_resolve(request_set=Gem::RequestSet.new) request_set.import Gem::Specification.unresolved_deps.values request_set.import Gem.loaded_specs.values.map {|s| Gem::Dependency.new(s.name, s.version) } request_set.resolve_current.each do |s| s.full_spec.activate end end
Is this platform FreeBSD
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 1026 def self.freebsd_platform? RbConfig::CONFIG["host_os"].to_s.include?("bsd") end
Get the default RubyGems API host. This is normally https://rubygems.org
.

all ‘rubygems_plugin’ files in $LOAD_PATH and load them
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 1061 def self.load_env_plugins load_plugin_files find_files_from_load_path("rubygems_plugin") end
The index to insert activated gem paths into the $LOAD_PATH. The activated gem’s paths are inserted before site lib directory by default.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 558 def self.load_path_insert_index $LOAD_PATH.each_with_index do |path, i| return i if path.instance_variable_defined?(:@gem_prelude_index) end index = $LOAD_PATH.index RbConfig::CONFIG["sitelibdir"] index || 0 end
Find

The file name and line number of the caller of the caller of this method.
depth
is how many layers up the call stack it should go.
e.g.,
def a; Gem.location_of_caller

Default options for gem commands for Ruby packagers.
The options here should be structured as an array of string “gem” command names as keys and a string of the default options as values.
Example:
def self.operating_system_defaults
{ 'install' => '--no-rdoc --no-ri --env-shebang', 'update' => '--no-rdoc --no-ri --env-shebang' }
end
# File lib/rubygems/defaults.rb, line 286 def self.operating_system_defaults {} end
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 391 def self.path paths.path end

Retrieve the PathSupport
object that RubyGems uses to lookup files.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 347 def self.paths @paths ||= Gem::PathSupport.new(ENV) end
Initialize the filesystem paths to use from env
. env
is a hash-like object (typically ENV
) that is queried for ‘GEM_HOME’, ‘GEM_PATH’, and ‘GEM_SPEC_CACHE’ Keys for the env
hash should be Strings, and values of the hash should be Strings or nil
.

Default options for gem commands for Ruby implementers.
The options here should be structured as an array of string “gem” command names as keys and a string of the default options as values.
Example:
def self.platform_defaults
{ 'install' => '--no-rdoc --no-ri --env-shebang', 'update' => '--no-rdoc --no-ri --env-shebang' }
end
# File lib/rubygems/defaults.rb, line 305 def self.platform_defaults {} end

Adds a post-build hook that will be passed an Gem::Installer
instance when Gem::Installer#install
is called. The hook is called after the gem has been extracted and extensions have been built but before the executables or gemspec has been written. If the hook returns false
then the gem’s files will be removed and the install will be aborted.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 666 def self.post_build(&hook) @post_build_hooks << hook end
Adds a post-install hook that will be passed an Gem::Installer
instance when Gem::Installer#install
is called
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 674 def self.post_install(&hook) @post_install_hooks << hook end
Adds a hook that will get run after Gem::Specification.reset
is run.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 691 def self.post_reset(&hook) @post_reset_hooks << hook end
Adds a post-uninstall hook that will be passed a Gem::Uninstaller
instance and the spec that was uninstalled when Gem::Uninstaller#uninstall
is called
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 700 def self.post_uninstall(&hook) @post_uninstall_hooks << hook end
Adds a pre-install hook that will be passed an Gem::Installer

The directory prefix this RubyGems was installed at. If your prefix is in a standard location (ie, rubygems is installed where you’d expect it to be), then prefix returns nil.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 735 def self.prefix prefix = File.dirname RUBYGEMS_DIR if prefix != File.expand_path(RbConfig::CONFIG["sitelibdir"]) && prefix != File.expand_path(RbConfig::CONFIG["libdir"]) && File.basename(RUBYGEMS_DIR) == "lib" prefix end end
Safely read a file in binary mode on all platforms.

Refresh available gems from disk.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 748 def self.refresh Gem::Specification.reset end
Register a Gem::Specification
for default gem.
Two formats for the specification are supported:
-
MRI 2.0 style, where spec.files contains unprefixed require names. The spec’s filenames will be registered as-is.
-
New style, where spec.files contains files prefixed with paths from spec.require_paths. The prefixes are stripped before registering the spec’s filenames. Unprefixed files are omitted.

Is this platform Solaris?
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 1019 def self.solaris_platform? RUBY_PLATFORM.include?("solaris") end
Returns the value of Gem.source_date_epoch_string
, as a Time
object.
This is used throughout RubyGems for enabling reproducible builds.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 1164 def self.source_date_epoch Time.at(source_date_epoch_string.to_i).utc.freeze end
If the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable is set, returns it’s value. Otherwise, returns the time that Gem.source_date_epoch_string
was first called in the same format as SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH.
NOTE(@duckinator): The implementation is a tad weird because we want to:
1. Make builds reproducible by default, by having this function always return the same result during a given run. 2. Allow changing ENV['SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH'] at runtime, since multiple tests that set this variable will be run in a single process.
If you simplify this function and a lot of tests fail, that is likely due to #2 above.
Details on SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH: reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 1145 def self.source_date_epoch_string # The value used if $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is not set. @default_source_date_epoch ||= Time.now.to_i.to_s specified_epoch = ENV["SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH"] # If it's empty or just whitespace, treat it like it wasn't set at all. specified_epoch = nil if !specified_epoch.nil? && specified_epoch.strip.empty? epoch = specified_epoch || @default_source_date_epoch epoch.strip end
Returns an Array
of sources to fetch remote gems from. Uses default_sources
if the sources list is empty.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 892 def self.sources source_list = configuration.sources || default_sources @sources ||= Gem::SourceList.from(source_list) end
Need to be able to set the sources without calling Gem.sources
.replace since that would cause an infinite loop.

Try to activate a gem containing path
. Returns true if activation succeeded or wasn’t needed because it was already activated. Returns false if it can’t find the path in a gem.

Lazily loads DefaultUserInteraction
and returns the default UI.
# File lib/rubygems.rb, line 979 def self.ui require_relative "rubygems/user_interaction" Gem::DefaultUserInteraction.ui end
Looks for a gem dependency file at path
and activates the gems in the file if found. If the file is not found an ArgumentError
is raised.
If path
is not given the RUBYGEMS_GEMDEPS environment variable is used, but if no file is found no exception is raised.
If ‘-’ is given for path
RubyGems searches up from the current working directory for gem dependency files (gem.deps.rb, Gemfile, Isolate) and activates the gems in the first one found.
You can run this automatically when rubygems starts. To enable, set the RUBYGEMS_GEMDEPS
environment variable to either the path of your gem dependencies file or “-” to auto-discover in parent directories.
NOTE: Enabling automatic discovery on multiuser systems can lead to execution of arbitrary code when used from directories outside your control.
