Generated when trying to lookup a gem to indicate that the gem was found, but that it isn’t usable on the current platform.
fetch and install read these and report them to the user to aid in figuring out why a gem couldn’t be installed.
Signals that a file permission error is preventing the user from operating on the given directory.
Used to raise parsing and loading errors
Raised by Gem::Resolver
when dependencies conflict and create the inability to find a valid possible spec for a request.
Represents an error communicating via HTTP.
Raised by Gem::Validator
when something is not right in a gem.
Raised to indicate that a system exit should occur with the specified exit_code
Raised by Resolver when a dependency requests a gem for which there is no spec.
The installer installs the files contained in the .gem into the Gem.home.
Gem::Installer
does the work of putting files in all the right places on the filesystem including unpacking the gem into its gem dir, installing the gemspec in the specifications dir, storing the cached gem in the cache dir, and installing either wrappers or symlinks for executables.
The installer invokes pre and post install hooks. Hooks can be added either through a rubygems_plugin.rb file in an installed gem or via a rubygems/defaults/#{RUBY_ENGINE}.rb or rubygems/defaults/operating_system.rb file. See Gem.pre_install
and Gem.post_install
for details.
Gem::PathSupport
facilitates the GEM_HOME and GEM_PATH environment settings to the rest of RubyGems.
Available list of platforms for targeting Gem installations.
See ‘gem help platform` for information on platform matching.
RemoteFetcher
handles the details of fetching gems and gem information from a remote source.
Given a set of Gem::Dependency
objects as needed
and a way to query the set of available specs via set
, calculates a set of ActivationRequest
objects which indicate all the specs that should be activated to meet the all the requirements.
The SourceList
represents the sources rubygems has been configured to use. A source may be created from an array of sources:
Gem::SourceList.from %w[https://rubygems.example https://internal.example]
Or by adding them:
sources = Gem::SourceList.new sources << 'https://rubygems.example'
The most common way to get a SourceList
is Gem.sources
.
Gem::StubSpecification
reads the stub: line from the gemspec. This prevents us having to eval the entire gemspec in order to find out certain information.
RubyGemTestCase provides a variety of methods for testing rubygems and gem-related behavior in a sandbox. Through RubyGemTestCase you can install and uninstall gems, fetch remote gems through a stub fetcher and be assured your normal set of gems is not affected.
Tests are always run at a safe level of 1.
An Uninstaller
.
The uninstaller fires pre and post uninstall hooks. Hooks can be added either through a rubygems_plugin.rb file in an installed gem or via a rubygems/defaults/#{RUBY_ENGINE}.rb or rubygems/defaults/operating_system.rb file. See Gem.pre_uninstall
and Gem.post_uninstall
for details.
The UriFormatter
handles URIs from user-input and escaping.
uf = Gem::UriFormatter.new 'example.com' p uf.normalize #=> 'http://example.com'
