Gem Fuzzy¶ ↑

A Rubygems plugin which adds a ‘fuzzy’ command which fuzzy-searches for gems and prints information about each match.

Options provide precise control over output format, making it friendly both on the command line and in scripts.

Examples¶ ↑

View dependencies at a glance:

$ gem fuzzy -f '%name-%version: %dependencies' act
activesupport-2.3.3:
activesupport-2.3.4:
activeresource-2.3.4: activesupport = 2.3.4
activerecord-2.3.4: activesupport = 2.3.4
actionpack-2.3.4: activesupport = 2.3.4, rack ~> 1.0.0
actionmailer-2.3.4: actionpack = 2.3.4

Handy alias to ‘cd’ to a gem directory:

function cdrg {
    if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then
        cd `gem env gemdir`/gems
    elif gem fuzzy --exactly-one $@ > /dev/null; then
      local dir=`gem fuzzy -f '%path' $@`
      if [ -d $dir/lib ]; then
          cd $dir/lib
      else
          cd $dir
      fi
    fi
}

$ cdrg rails    # oops!
2 matching gems:
  rails 2.3.3
  rails 2.3.4
$ cdrg rails 4  # only 2.3.4 contains '4'
$ pwd
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.4/lib
