Formulae and tools to build versions of Ruby that can be installed and run from anywhere on the filesystem.
Just brew install homebrew/portable-ruby/<formula>
.
Homebrew Portable Ruby is designed only for usage internally to Homebrew. If Portable Ruby isn't available for your platform, it is recommended you instead use Ruby from your system's package manager (if available) or rbenv/ruby-build. Usage of Portable Ruby outside of Homebrew, such as embedding into your own apps, is not a goal for this project.
An automated release workflow is available to use. Dispatch the workflow and all steps of building, tagging and uploading should be handled automatically.
Manual steps are documented below.
Run brew portable-package ruby
. For macOS, this should ideally be inside an OS X 10.11 VM (so it is compatible with all working Homebrew macOS versions).
Copy the bottle bottle*.tar.gz
and bottle*.json
files into a directory on your local machine.
Upload these files to GitHub Packages with:
brew pr-upload --upload-only --root-url=https://ghcr.io/v2/homebrew/portable-ruby
And to GitHub releases:
brew pr-upload --upload-only --root-url=https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-portable-ruby/releases/download/$VERSION
where $VERSION
is the new package version.
Used in production for Homebrew/brew.
