2.2.0 / 2013-12-26

Special thanks to Vít Ondruch and Michal Papis for testing and finding bugs in RubyGems as it was prepared for the 2.2.0 release.

Enhancements:

RubyGems can check for gem dependencies files (gem.deps.rb or Gemfile) when rubygems executables are started and uses the found dependencies. This means rake will work similar to bundle exec rake. To enable this set the RUBYGEMS_GEMDEPS environment variable to the location of your dependencies file.
See Gem::use_gemdeps for further details.
A RubyGems directory may now be shared amongst multiple ruby versions. Upon activation RubyGems will automatically compile missing extensions for the current platform when the built objects are missing. Issue #596 by Michal Papis
By default different platforms do not share gem install locations so this must be configured by setting GEM_HOME to a common directory. Some gems use fixed paths for requiring extensions and are not compatible with sharing gem directories.
The default sharing location may be configured by RubyGems packagers through Gem.default_ext_dir_for. Pull Request #744 by Vít Ondruch.
RubyGems checks the ‘allowed_push_host’ metadata value when pushing a gem to prevent an accidental push to a public repository (such as rubygems.org). If you have private gems you should set this value in your gem specification metadata. Pull request #603 by Seamus Abshere.
gem list now shows results for multiple arguments. Pull request #604 by Zach Rabinovich.
gem pristine --extensions will restore only gems with extensions. Issue #619 by Postmodern.

Added Gem::Specification#full_require_paths which is like require_paths, but returns a fully-qualified results. Pull request #632 by Vít Ondruch.
RubyGems now looks for the https_proxy environment variable for https:// sources. RubyGems will fall back to http_proxy if there is no https_proxy. Issue #610 by mkristian.
RubyGems now creates directories in .gem files. Issue #631 by marksolaris.
RubyGems raises an exception when a specification includes its gem. Issue #623 by notEthan.
RubyGems now displays relevant release note information when updating RubyGems. Issue #647 by Trevor Wennblom.
Deprecated Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError in favor of Gem::Ext::BuildError. The old constant is an alias for the new constant.
When extensions are built the gem_make.out file is always written now, even on success. This will help with debugging bad builds that report success.
If a specification fails to validate RubyGems shows a link to the specification reference guide. Issue #656 by Markus Heiler.
When using gem install -g, RubyGems now detects the presence of an Isolate, Gemfile or gem.deps.rb file.
Added Gem::StubSpecification#stubbed? to help determine if a user should run gem pristine to speed up gem loading. Pull request #694 and #701 by Jon Leighton.
RubyGems now warns when a gem has a pessimistic version dependency that may be too strict.
RubyGems now warns when a gem has an open-ended dependency.

You can configure SSL certificate usage in RubyGems through the :ssl_ca_cert and :ssl_verify_mode options in ~/.gemrc and /etc/gemrc. The recommended way is to set :ssl_ca_cert to the CA certificate for your server or a certificate bundle containing your CA certification.

You may also set :ssl_verify_mode to 0 to completely disable SSL certificate checks, but this is not recommended.

Security fixes:

Disallow redirects from https to http
Turn on verification of server SSL certs

Add –clear-sources to fetch

1.8.0 / 2011-04-34

This release focused on properly encapsulating functionality. Most of this work focused on moving functionality out of Gem::SourceIndex and Gem::GemPathSearcher into Gem::Specification where it belongs.

After installing RubyGems 1.8.0 you will see deprecations when loading your exsting gems. Run gem pristine --all --no-extensions to regenerate your gem specifications safely.

Currently RubyGems does not save the build arguments used to build gems with extensions. You will need to run gem pristine gem_with_extension -- --build-arg to regenerate a gem with an extension where it requires special build arguments.

Deprecations:

DependencyList.from_source_index deprecated the source_index argument.
Deprecated Dependency.new(/regex/).
Deprecated Gem.searcher.

1.2.0 / 2008-06-21

Features:

RubyGems no longer performs bulk updates and instead only fetches the gemspec files it needs. Alternate sources will need to upgrade to RubyGems 1.2 to allow RubyGems to take advantage of the new metadata updater. If a pre 1.2 remote source is in the sources list, RubyGems will revert to the bulk update code for compatibility.
RubyGems now has runtime and development dependency types. Use #add_development_dependency and #add_runtime_dependency. All typeless dependencies are considered to be runtime dependencies.
RubyGems will now require rubygems/defaults/operating_system.rb and rubygems/defaults/#{RBX_ENGINE}.rb if they exist. This allows packagers and ruby implementers to add custom behavior to RubyGems via these files. (If the RubyGems API is insufficient, please suggest improvements via the RubyGems list.)
/etc/gemrc (and windows equivalent) for global settings
setup.rb now handles –vendor and –destdir for packagers
gem stale command that lists gems by last access time

Bug fixes:

File modes from gems are now honored, patch #19737
Marshal Gem::Specification objects from the future can now be loaded.
A trailing / is now added to remote sources when missing, bug #20134
Gems with legacy platforms will now be correctly uninstalled, patch #19877
gem install --no-wrappers followed by gem install --wrappers no longer overwrites executables
gem pristine now forces reinstallation of gems, bug #20387
RubyGems gracefully handles ^C while loading .gemspec files from disk, bug #20523
Paths are expanded in more places, bug #19317, bug #19896
Gem::DependencyInstaller resets installed gems every install, bug #19444
Gem.default_path is now honored if GEM_PATH is not set, patch #19502

Enhancements:

setup.rb
- stub files created by RubyGems 0.7.x and older are no longer removed. When upgrading from these ancient versions, upgrade to 1.1.x first to clean up stubs.
- RDoc is no longer required until necessary, patch #20414
gem server
- Now completely matches the output of gem generate_index and has correct content types
- Refreshes from source directories for every hit. The server will no longer need to be restarted after installing gems.
gem query --details and friends now display author, homepage, rubyforge url and installed location
gem install without -i no longer reinstalls dependencies if they are in GEM_PATH but not in GEM_HOME
Gem::RemoteFetcher now performs persistent connections for HEAD requests, bug #7973

1.1.1 / 2008-04-11

Bug fixes:

Gem.prefix now returns non-nil only when RubyGems was installed outside sitelibdir or libdir.
The gem server gem list now correctly links to gem details.
gem update --system now passes –no-format-executable to setup.rb.
Gem::SourceIndex#refresh! now works with multiple gem repositories.
Downloaded gems now go into –install-dir’s cache directory.
Various fixes to downloading gem metadata.
gem install --force now ignores network errors too.
gem pristine now rebuilds extensions.
gem update --system now works on virgin Apple ruby.
Gem::RemoteFetcher handles Errno::ECONNABORTED.
Printing of release notes fixed.

1.1.0 / 2008-03-29

Features:

RubyGems now uses persistent connections on index updates. Index updates are much faster now.
RubyGems only updates from a latest index by default, cutting candidate gems for updates to roughly 1/4 (at present). Index updates are even faster still.
- gem list -r may only show the latest version of a gem, add –all to see all gems.
gem spec now extracts specifications from .gem files.
gem query --installed to aid automation of checking for gems.

Bug fixes:

RubyGems works with both Config and RbConfig now.
Executables are now cleaned upon uninstall.
You can now uninstall from a particular directory.
Updating from non-default sources fixed.
Executable stubs now use ruby install name in shebang.
gem unpack checks every directory in Gem.path now.
gem install now exits with non-zero exit code when appropriate.
gem update only updates gems that need updates.
gem update doesn’t force remote-only updates.
gem update handles dependencies properly when updating.
Gems are now loaded in Gem.path order.
Gem stub scripts on windows now work outside Gem.bindir.
gem sources -r now works without network access.

Enhancements:

RubyGems now requires Ruby > 1.8.3.
Release notes are now printed upon installation.
gem env path now prints a usable path.
gem install reverts to local-only installation upon network error.
Tar handling code refactoring and cleanup.

0.9.4 / 2007-05-23

If you are experiencing problems with the source index (e.g. strange “No Method” errors), or problems with zlib (e.g. “Buffer Error” message), we recommend upgrading to RubyGems 0.9.4.

Bug fixes:

Several people have been experiencing problems with no method errors on the source index cache. The source index cache is now a bit more self healing. Furthermore, if the source index cache is irreparable, then it is automatically dropped and reloaded.
The source cache files may now be dropped with the “gem sources –clear-all” command. (This command may require root is the system source cache is in a root protected area).
Several sub-commands were accidentally dropped from the “gem” command. These commands have been restored.

0.9.3 / 2007-05-10

Bug fixes:

The ZLib library on Windows will occasionally complains about a buffer error when unpacking gems. The Gems software has a workaround for that problem, but the workaround was only enabled for versions of ZLib 1.2.1 or earlier. We have received several reports of the error occurring with ZLib 1.2.3, so we have permanently enabled the work around on all versions.

0.9.2 / 2007-02-05

Bug fixes:

The “unpack” command now works properly.
User name and password are now passed properly to the authenticating proxy when downloading gems.

0.9.1 / 2007-01-16

See ChangeLog

0.9.0 / 2006-06-28

Finally, the much anticipated RubyGems version 0.9.0 is now available. This release includes a number of new features and bug fixes. The number one change is that we can now download the gem index incrementally. This will greatly speed up the gem command when only a few gems are out of date.

Enhancements:

The gem index is now downloaded incrementally, only updating entries that are out of date. If more than 50 entries are out of date, we revert back to a bulk download.
Several patches related to allowing RubyGems to work with authenticating proxies (from Danie Roux and Anatol Pomozov). Just put the user and password in the proxy URL (e.g. -p http://user:password@proxy.address.com:8080) or use the HTTP_PROXY_USER and HTTP_PROXY_PASS environment variables.
The gem unpack command can now accept a file path rather than just a install gem name.
Both RI and RDOC documents are now generated by default.
A gemri command is included to read gem RI docs (only needed for Ruby 1.8.4 or earlier).
Version 0.0.0 is now a valid gem version.
Better detection of missing SSL functionality.
SSL is not required if the security policy does not require signature checking.
Rake built extensions are now supported (Tilman Sauerbeck).
Several autorequire bug fixes.
–traceback is now an alias for –backtrace (I can never remember which one it is).
SAFE=1 compatibility fixes.
.rbw is now a supported suffix for RubyGem’s custom require.
Several Ruby 1.9 compatibility fixes (Eric Hodel).

Bug fixes:

Added dashes to gemspecs generated in Ruby 1.8.3. This solves some cross-Ruby version compatibility issues.
Fixed bug where the wrong executables could be uninstalled (Eric Hodel).
Fixed bug where gem unpack occasionally unpacked the wrong gem.
Fixed bug where a fatal error occurred when permissions on .gemrc were too restrictive (reported by Luca Pireddu).
Fixed prefix handling for native expressions (patch by Aaron Patterson).
Fixed several Upgrade => Update typos.

0.8.11 / 2005-07-13

-y is a synonym for –include-dependencies.
Better handling of errors in the top level rescue clause.
Package list command (e.g. gem inspect GEM).
.gemrc now allows cvsrc-like options to set defaults per subcommand.
The autorequire gem spec field will now accept a list.
Substituted Time for Date in specs, increasing performance dramatically.
Fixed reported bug of gem directories ending in “-“ (reported by Erik Hatcher).
Fixed but in installer that caused dependency installation to not work.
Added Paul Duncan’s gem signing patch.
Added Mark Hubbart’s Framework patch (for better integration with OS X).
Added David Glasser’s install-from-mirror patch.
Additional internal structural cleanup and test reorganization.

0.8.10 / 2005-03-27

In multi-user environments, it is common to supply multiple versions of gems (for example Rails), allowing individual users to select the version of the gem they desire. This allows a user to be insulated from updates to that gem. RubyGems 0.8.10 fixes a problem where gems could occasionally become confused about the current versions of libraries selected by the user.
The other annoying bug is that if there are any existing rubygems-update gems installed, then the “gem update –system” command will download a new update, but install the latest update prior to the download.

0.8.9

Never released

0.8.8 / 2005-03-14

Moved the master definition of class Requirement back under version. Kept the body of Requirement under Gem.

0.8.7 / 2005-03-14

Even though it has only been a few weeks since that last release, there are quite a number of new features in 0.8.7. A complete list of new features will be given below, but here is a summary of the hot items.

The bug that prevented some users from installing rails has been squashed. A big thanks to Bill Guindon (aGorilla) for helping track that one down.

There are several new commands available on the gem command:

gem cleanup GEMNAME – Cleanup (uninstall) all the old versions of gem. If the gem name is omitted, the entire repository is cleaned.
gem dependency GEMNAME – Show the dependencies for the named gems. This is really helpful when trying to figure out what gem needs what other gem.

There changes to the existing commands as well.

gem uninstall is much smarter about removing gems from the repository. Lists of gems are now uninstalled in proper dependency order (ie. if A depends on B, A is uninstalled first). Also, warnings about broken dependencies occur only when removing the last gem that supports a dependency is removed.

Both gem install and gem uninstall support some new command line options that can reduce the amount of yes/no queries given the user. For install we have:

–ignore-dependencies – Only install requests gems, no dependendecies are automatically installed.
–include-dependencies – Automatically install dependencies, without confirmation.

For gem uninstall, the new options are:

–all – Uninstall all matching gems without confirmation.
–ignore-dependencies – Uninstall, even if dependencies are broken.
–executables – Remove executables without confirmation

Under general cleanup, gems will not, by default, run RDoc on packages that do not have the RDoc flag set.

And finally there is a new library file ‘gemconfigure’ to aid in writing version sensitive applications (without undue dependencies on RubyGems); and ‘gemwhich’, a short script to locate libraries in the file system. You can read more about them here:

gemconfigure: http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/4#page73
gemwhich: http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/17

0.8.6 / 2005-02-27

Fixed a small bug with shebang construction

0.8.5 / 2005-02-26

Do you know how you used to dread getting the following message while installing gems?

Updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org

It could take up to 30 seconds (on my machine, even worse on others) for that crazy source index to update.

This latest release of RubyGems speeds that wait time up considerably. The following table gives the following times for installing RedCloth with a required source index update on three system we had available to us. No RDoc generation was included in the following times.

RubyGems Linux Mac OSX Windows 0.8.4 33 secs 73 secs 58 secs 0.8.5 8 secs 14 secs 21 secs

The new caching code is at least 3x faster than previous versions. Woo Hoo!

0.8.4 / 2005-01-01

Rubygems 0.8.3’s installer was broken unless you already had an older version of RubyGems installed. That’s fixed.
Change in the way Gem::Specification internally deals with lazy attributes and defaults, bringing (with some loadpath_manager changes) a fairly significant increase in speed.
Support for lower-cased Gem file names (for you, Paul Duncan :)
Erik Veenstra’s patch for making Gem versions sortable.

0.8.3 / 2004-12-07

No real earth shattering news here, but there were a number of really annoying issues involving other libraries that RubyGems depends upon. 0.8.3 contains some workarounds for these issues. In particular:

Added workaround for the null byte in Dir string issue. (see http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/121702). (Thanks to Mauricio Fernández for the quick response on this one).
Added workaround for old version of Zlib on windows that caused Ruwiki to fail to install. (see http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/121770)
Added workaround for large YAML file issues. (We dynamically cut down the size of the source index YAML file and seem to have worked around immediate issues.

There has been some minor usability enhancements and changes …

A user specific source index cache can be used when the site-wide cache is unwritable (i.e. because you are running as a non-admin). This greatly speeds up gem commands run in non-admin mode when the site-wide cache is out of date.
The gem command now used an HTTP HEAD command to detect if the server’s source index needs to be downloaed.
gem check gemname –test will run unit tests on installed gems that have unit tests.
Multiple gem names are allowed on the gem install command line. This means you can do:
gem install rake rails needle postgres-pr pimki
(Ok, you get the idea)
Multiple authors my be specified in a Gem spec.
Switched to using setup.rb (rather than a custom install script) for the installation of RubyGems itself. If you have installed RubyGems before, double check the installation instructions and make sure you use setup.rb instead of install.rb.
Ryan Davis has provided a patch so you can use an env variable (GEM_SKIP), to tell loadpath_manager not to load gems of those names. This was useful for him while testing libs that he had in development.

0.8.1 / 2004-09-17

Quick release to capture some bug fixes.

0.8.0 / 2004-09-15

Remove need for library stubs. Set the RUBYOPT environment variable to include “rrubygems”, and a normal require will find gem files. Continue to use ‘require_gem gem_name, version’ to specify gem versions.
Deprecated “test_suite_file” gemspec attribute in favor of “test_files” array.
Generates rdoc by default on installs.
Adopted tar/gzip file format, thanks to Mauricio Fernandez.
“gem rdoc” allows generation of rdoc after gem installation (will add a “gem test”
Application stubs can now accept an optional parameter of VERSION that will run an arbitrary version of the application requested.
Various bug fixes
Various platform-independency improvements
“gem spec –all” displays spec info for all installed version of a given gem.
Dynamic caching of sources
Support for user-definable sources on the command line (thanks Assaph Mehr)
More intelligent support for platform-dependent gems. Use Platform::CURRENT when building a gem to set its platform to the one you’re building on. Installation displays a choice of platform-dependent gems, allowing the user to pick.
Added “gem unpack” for “unpacking” a gem to the current directory

0.7.0 / 2004-07-09

See ChangeLog

0.6.1 / 2004-06-08

See ChangeLog

0.6.0 / 2004-06-08

Collapse output of –search and –list (and gem_server) operations so that each gem is listed only once, with each of its versions listed on the same line.
bin/gem: new –upgrade-all option allows one to upgrade every installed gem
new #required_ruby_version attribute added to gem specification for specifying a dependency on which version of ruby the gem needs. Format it accepts is the same as the Gem::Version::Requirement format:
spec.required_ruby_version = “> 1.8.0”
–install-stub defaults to true, so library stubs are created

0.5.0 / 2004-06-06

Jim added the ability to specify version constraints to avoid API incompatibilities. This has been the subject of much debate for the past couple of months, with many ideas and code contributed by Eivind Eklund and Mauricio Fernandez. The following set of assertions shows how it works:
assert_inadequate(“1.3”, “~> 1.4”) assert_adequate( “1.4”, “~> 1.4”) assert_adequate( “1.5”, “~> 1.4”) assert_inadequate(“2.0”, “~> 1.4”) # This one is key–the new operator # disallows major version number # differences.
Group gem search output when multiple versions exist for a given gem:
activerecord (0.7.8, 0.7.7, 0.7.6, 0.7.5) Implements the ActiveRecord pattern for ORM.
Add arbitrary RDoc-able files via gemspec (not just Ruby source files) for people who have, for example, README.rdoc in their distributions. Add to gemspec via: spec.extra_rdoc_files = [“list”, “of”, “files”]. Ruby files are automatically included.
Some small bug fixes

0.4.0 / 2004-05-30

Minor bug fixes including Windows compatibility issues

0.3.0 / 2004-04-30

Cleanup of command-line arguments and handling. Most commands accept a –local or –remote modifier.
Creation of Application Gems (packages that include executable programs). See http://rubygems.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl?DeveloperGuide for information on how to use it.
Basic functionality for installing binary gems from source (:extensions property of gem specification holds an array of paths to extconf.rb files to be used for compilation)
Install library “stub” allowing a normal ‘require’ to work (which then does the rubygems require and ‘require_gem’
–run-tests runs the test suite specified by the “test_suite_file” property of a gem specification
HTTP Proxy support works. Rewrite of HTTP code.
Unit and functional tests added (see Rakefile).
Prompt before remote-installing dependencies during gem installation.
Config file for storing preferences for ‘gem’ command usage.
Generally improved error messages (still more work to do)
Rearranged gem directory structure for cleanliness.
