module Gem

RubyGems is the Ruby standard for publishing and managing third party libraries.

For gem developer documentation see:

Gem::Version for version dependency notes

RubyGems API (also available from gem server)

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.

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.

() → String

Source

# File vendor/bundle/ruby/4.0.0/gems/rbs-4.1.3/core/rubygems/rubygems.rbs, line 964
def self.source_date_epoch_string: () -> String

If the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable is set, returns it’s value. Otherwise, returns DEFAULT_SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH as a string.

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 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.

use_gemdeps

Source

# File vendor/bundle/ruby/4.0.0/gems/rbs-4.1.3/core/rubygems/rubygems.rbs, line 1066
def self.use_gemdeps: (?String path) -> void

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.
