RubyGems is the Ruby standard for publishing and managing third party libraries.
For user documentation, see:
-
gem help
andgem help [command]
For gem developer documentation see:

Gem::Version

RubyGems Plugins
As of RubyGems 1.3.2, RubyGems will load plugins installed in gems 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 discovered via Gem::find_files
then loaded. Take care when implementing a plugin as your plugin file may be loaded multiple times if multiple versions of your gem are installed.
For an example plugin, see the graph gem which adds a ‘gem graph` command.
RubyGems Defaults, Packaging
RubyGems defaults are stored in 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 and 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

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.

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.
