Hello everyone, I''d like to install gem package like ruby-debug, mini magick, etc ..., but I don''t have access to gem at my development machine. Is there a way to install those package manually ?

I''ve heard of people doing this with keychain drives, etc. I''m a fan of keeping copies of the gems you''re using in your source repository in case you need to re-install them. This is particularly useful for engineers who travel, and thus will have copies on their laptops. -faisal --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Maybe you could use Dr. Nick''s GemsOnRails: http://drnicwilliams.com/2007/02/09/railsrally-2007-and-gemsonrails/ It allows you to install gems into your vendor directory. Then you should be able to deploy the app back up to your server with the gems your rails apps needs. Works pretty well for me.

I was hoping I could simply d/l and extract it to vendor, guess there''s more than that.

Hey, Are you sure you''re talking about gems, not rails plugins? gem --help gem list -r gem install <name of your gem> or if you already have a gem file, just gem install <gem file name> Cheers, Yuri On 5/10/07, Lalala Liliil <rails-mailing-list-ARtvInVfO7ksV2N9l4h3zg@public.gmane.org> wrote:> > I was hoping I could simply d/l and extract it to vendor, guess there''s > more than > that. > > I will try these inputs > > Thank you > > -- > Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. > > > >-- Best regards, Yuri Leikind --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
