The license for this gem.
The license must be no more than 64 characters.
This should just be the name of your license. The full text of the license should be inside of the gem (at the top level) when you build it.
The simplest way is to specify the standard SPDX ID spdx.org/licenses/ for the license. Ideally, you should pick one that is OSI (Open Source Initiative) opensource.org/licenses/ approved.
The most commonly used OSI-approved licenses are MIT and Apache-2.0. GitHub also provides a license picker at choosealicense.com/.
You can also use a custom license file along with your gemspec and specify a LicenseRef-<idstring>, where idstring is the name of the file containing the license text.
You should specify a license for your gem so that people know how they are permitted to use it and any restrictions you’re placing on it. Not specifying a license means all rights are reserved; others have no right to use the code for any purpose.
You can set multiple licenses with licenses=
Usage:
spec.license = 'MIT'
The license(s) for the library.
Each license must be a short name, no more than 64 characters.
This should just be the name of your license. The full text of the license should be inside of the gem when you build it.
See license=
for more discussion
Usage:
spec.licenses = ['MIT', 'GPL-2.0']
Singular accessor for licenses
With no arguments, sets the default visibility for subsequently defined methods to public. With arguments, sets the named methods to have public visibility. String
arguments are converted to symbols. An Array
of Symbols and/or Strings is also accepted. If a single argument is passed, it is returned. If no argument is passed, nil is returned. If multiple arguments are passed, the arguments are returned as an array.
Returns a list of the public instance methods defined in mod. If the optional parameter is false
, the methods of any ancestors are not included.
Similar to instance_method, searches public method only.
Returns a copy of self
with Unicode normalization applied.
Argument form
must be one of the following symbols (see Unicode normalization forms):
:nfc
: Canonical decomposition, followed by canonical composition.
:nfd
: Canonical decomposition.
:nfkc
: Compatibility decomposition, followed by canonical composition.
:nfkd
: Compatibility decomposition.
The encoding of self
must be one of:
Encoding::UTF_8
Encoding::UTF_16BE
Encoding::UTF_16LE
Encoding::UTF_32BE
Encoding::UTF_32LE
Encoding::GB18030
Encoding::UCS_2BE
Encoding::UCS_4BE
Examples:
"a\u0300".unicode_normalize # => "a" "\u00E0".unicode_normalize(:nfd) # => "a "

, String#unicode_normalized?
.
Like String#unicode_normalize
, except that the normalization is performed on self
.
Related String#unicode_normalized?
.
Returns true
if self
is in the given form
of Unicode normalization, false
otherwise. The form
must be one of :nfc
, :nfd
, :nfkc
, or :nfkd
.
Examples:
"a\u0300".unicode_normalized? # => false "a\u0300".unicode_normalized?(:nfd) # => true "\u00E0".unicode_normalized? # => true "\u00E0".unicode_normalized?(:nfd) # => false
Raises an exception if self
is not in a Unicode encoding:
s = "\xE0".force_encoding(Encoding::ISO_8859_1) s.unicode_normalized? # Raises Encoding::CompatibilityError.

Returns the list of public methods accessible to obj. If the all parameter is set to false
, only those methods in the receiver will be listed.
Similar to method, searches public method only.
Invokes the method identified by symbol, passing it any arguments specified. Unlike send, public_send
calls public methods only. When the method is identified by a string, the string is converted to a symbol.
1.public_send(:puts, "hello") # causes NoMethodError
Makes a list of existing constants public.
Returns the methods available to this delegate object as the union of this object’s and _getobj_ public methods.
Returns the original line from source for from the given object
.
See ::trace_object_allocations
for more information and examples.
Return any possible conflicts against the currently loaded specs.
Returns true
if the named public method is defined by mod. If inherit is set, the lookup will also search mod’s ancestors. String
arguments are converted to symbols.
module A def method1() end end class B protected def method2() end end class C < B include A def method3() end end A.method_defined? :method1 #=> true C.public_method_defined? "method1" #=> true C.public_method_defined? "method1", true #=> true C.public_method_defined? "method1", false #=> true C.public_method_defined? "method2" #=> false C.method_defined? "method2" #=> true
Makes a list of existing class methods public.
String
arguments are converted to symbols. An Array
of Symbols and/or Strings is also accepted.
