RubyGems Guides

An effort to provide awesome documentation for the RubyGems ecosystem.

Goals

Be the definitive place for RubyGems knowledge
Help out those new to RubyGems get started and get things done
Make it easy to contribute more guides

Want to help?

If a guide is empty, start filling it out! Or, make a new one! Pull requests are gladly accepted!

Pick one from the repo issues
Port content from help.rubygems.org knowledge base
Find lots of StackOverflow/ruby-talk questions and get their common answers in here
Fill out more guides!

Setup

First, install the sass command line tool. On MacOS you can use Homebrew:

$ brew install sass/sass/sass

Then run bundle install and bundle exec rake. This will launch both Jekyll and Sass in "watch" mode.

The pages will be available at http://localhost:4000/

Every guide except for the Command and Specification Reference is just a straight up markdown page, so just go edit it!

For the Command Guide (command-reference.md), edit command-reference.erb and run:

$ bundle exec rake command_guide

For the Specification Guide, the documentation comes directly from the Gem::Specification class in RubyGems. Edit it, set your RUBYGEMS_DIR to where your code directory is, and run:

$ RUBYGEMS_DIR=~/Dev/ruby/rubygems bundle exec rake spec_guide --trace

Thanks

Huge thanks to thoughtbot whose playbook this is based off of.
