I have a gem, that must be build with some options.
gem install pg --with-pg-include=/Library/PostgreSQL/9.0/include/ --with-pg-lib=/Library/PostgreSQL/9.0/lib/
Can I include this options in the Gemfile? In my Gemfile the pg
command is
gem "pg", "0.12.2"
I want to provide some options after the version number.
thx,
tux
Here is the relevant text from the link posted in comments already:
BUILD OPTIONS
You can use bundle config
to give bundler the flags to pass to the gem installer every time bundler tries to install a particular gem.
A very common example, the mysql
gem, requires Snow Leopard users to pass configuration flags to gem install
to specify where to find the mysql_config
executable.
gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
Since the specific location of that executable can change from machine to machine, you can specify these flags on a per-machine basis.
bundle config build.mysql --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
After running this command, every time bundler needs to install the mysql
gem, it will pass along the flags you specified.
Here is another example of custom build options, in this case specifying a specific source to download from other than rubygems:
bundle config build.popen4 --source http://gemcutter.org
