bundler cache bucket

[tknerr]

Not sure if this should be handled by the gem cache bucket already, but when I use bundle install --deployment (which installs the gems to vendor/bundle) the gems are not cached and re-downloaded everytime

@tknerr if you really need to use --deployment I think you are probably better using "vanilla" shared folders, I can't see how we can fit that use case from the plugin.
regarding the gem bucket, it only handles the system-wide / user specific gems dir based on running gem env gemdir

[tknerr]

@fgrehm guess I have to -- at least the installation instructions for gitlab tell me to do so ;-)

It's a rails app, and vendoring via 'bundle install --deployment' seem to be a common thing there. Hmmmm, could I just 'bundle install' to install to the system wide gem dir and then create a 'bundle/vendor' symlink?? :-)

[fgrehm]

@tknerr I personally only use --deployment when I'm deploying :P during vagrant usage / development I just run bundle install with no --deployment. The symlink might do the trick but I'd probably use something like #4 and I'm leaning towards closing this issue in favor of that. wdyt?

[tknerr]

@fgrehm yep, close it, #4 looks perfect 👍

Cool :)
