BASH completion for Ruby
by Vít Ondruch 25 May '16

25 May '16

Hi guys, Anybody have any experience with some scripts for bash completion? Have you tried any? Should we integrate any? Just a quick googling gave me two results: https://github.com/mernen/completion-ruby https://github.com/pdkl95/rubygems-completion And there are probably others. I did not tried them yet. Have you? Do you have other/better tips? Thank you Vit

Ruby 2.0
by Vít Ondruch 05 Dec '12

05 Dec '12

Hi, Just for your information, I have pushed ruby-2.0 branch into the Ruby's git repo. So if you like test the latest Ruby, you need to get the latest HEAD tarball, which could be prepared using: $ cd /path/to/your/ruby/sources $ ./tool/make-snapshot tmp Note that you have to have available subversion and bison on your system. Also note that the content of tarball is needed to be repacked, that the Ruby sources will be stored in "ruby-2.0.0-p0" folder (I know, it is annoyance, but you can fix the spec and send me a patch ;). Also note that I currently keep the ruby_abi at 1.9.1, while the official release will have 2.0.0 probably. This should allow you to use Fedora's gems without rebuild. Any comments/patches are appreciated. Vit [1] http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=ruby.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/ruby-2…

Ruby-SIG meeting at FUDCon Paris 2012?
by Vít Ondruch 21 Sep '12

21 Sep '12

Hi Rubyists, Since me and bkabrda are coming to FUDCon Paris, it would be nice opportunity to meet you, other Rubyists, and discuss some topics and future directions of Ruby in Fedora. Please let us know who would be interested to come and share your topics, which should be discussed. I can throw in several right now: * JRuby and Rubinius in Fedora and their integration with RubyGems. * Bundler? * Rails 3(4) in Fedora. * Redmine, Passenger? * Parallel installation of several gem versions. * gem2rpm improvements Vit

is-it-fedora-ruby update
by Mo Morsi 21 Aug '12

21 Aug '12

Just a quick update regarding the Fedora/Ruby project Zuhao has been working on as part of the Google Summer of Code. As many of you may remember, Zuhao has been working on a rails based site to highlight the ruby sig's community's effort in packaging ruby gems, developing ruby software, and overall improving the Ruby experience on Fedora. Zuhao has made great headway with the project so far, implementing Rake modules that allows us to pull the gem and rpm packages into the local db as well as various frontend interfaces which to display and cross-reference the gem / rpm metadata and other info [1][2]. Various other features are in progress including the ability to comment and rate specific packages, a section highlighting various projects based on the Fedora / Ruby stack, and a mechanism to more closely integrate w/ rubygems as gems are pushed. I've hosted the website on one of my servers for the time being and pointed a subdomain to it [3]. Towards the end of the summer we'll update the site with the latest developments, reserve the is-it-fedora-ruby (or other) domain, and point it at the server. Any comments or feedback would be more than appreciated as well as any patches or feature requests for the codebase. I'd like to thank Zuhao for the work so far and am looking forward to seeing the site continue to develop. -Mo [1] http://mo.morsi.org/files/gsoc/isitfedoraruby/02-gem-list.png [2] http://mo.morsi.org/files/gsoc/isitfedoraruby/03-packages-by-popularity.png [3] http://isitfedoraruby.syracloud.net/ [4] https://github.com/zuhao/isitfedoraruby/tree/create-controllers

Cached .gem file - include it or not
by Miroslav Suchý 20 Aug '12

20 Aug '12

Hi, I would like to start discussion, whether packaged rubygems should include cached gem file. I'm seeing shift from "should exclude cached .gem file" to "must exclude cached .gem file". I tried to search archive of this mailing list for discussion about this, but find none. While current guidelines does not address this: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Ruby#RubyGems In discussion page: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging_talk:Ruby#Cached_.gem_file is this text: > The package *should* exclude the cached .gem file in files section: > %exclude %{gemdir}/cache/%{gemname}-%{version}.gem >Since the gem is installed using RPM, it makes no sense to include the >cached .gem file. This file is used typically with 'gem pristine' >command to restore gem into its original state, but this could be >achieved by equivalent RPM command. And in draft: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/Ruby is even: Since the Gem is installed using RPM, you *must* exclude the .gem file. And this is even what is in current fedora-review(1) as in its output is: [x]: MUST Gem package must exclude cached Gem. I do not understand why it is MUST item. And anyway, why it could not be present. I would like to have cached gem in final package. I will tell you why. I have several collegues, which develop application for Fedora, but they develop on MacOS. Usually they download rubygems from rubygems.org. But sometimes Fedora version of rubygem has patch applied. In such case when we do: %prep gem unpack %{SOURCE0} %setup -q -D -T -n %{gem_name}-%{version} gem spec %{SOURCE0} -l --ruby > %{gem_name}.gemspec %patch0 -p1 %build ... gem build %{gem_name}.gemspec the resulting gem file is different (compared to rubygem.org version). If cached gem file is present in package, they can easily extract it and use this one - because sometimes the behaviour is different (compared to rubygem.org version). And if I correctly understood 'gem pristine' - it will not help here as it will not create .gem file with those security patches. So what I would like to see, is to have cached gem present in package. At list for packages containing patch. But since people have tendency to forget ("Oh, security problem. Lets add patch." days/month later: "You forgot to add cached .gem." "Sorry") - I would suggest to include cached gem always (i.e. MUST item). But I understood that sometimes it can be very hard to repackage gem, as it can be old and may miss some required metadata, so I would say it SHOULD include cached gem.

F16 and ri output causing errors...
by Darryl L. Pierce 14 Aug '12

14 Aug '12

I saw this problem before, but don't remember the solution in packaging. When I build my gem (qpid_messaging) under F16, I'm getting complaints [1] about the ri documentation filenames not matching between platforms. Since the filenames are never going to be consistent on F16, what's the fix for this? I can't get koji to release a build for me because of this...

Gitorious plan
by Ken Dreyer 10 Aug '12

10 Aug '12

Hi Ruby SIG, I'm interested in getting Gitorious into Fedora, and I've outlined the steps necessary on the wiki [1]. I figured I would throw this out there for feedback. I'm wondering if anyone see any other things to consider along with what I've written? Also, now that rubygem-ruby-net-ldap has been EOL'd in Fedora, does anyone have a tips or pointers for porting to the net-ldap Gem? - Ken [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ktdreyer/Gitorious
