Attributes

api_keys[R]

Hash of RubyGems.org and alternate API keys

args[R]

List of arguments supplied to the config file object.

backtrace[W]

True if we print backtraces on errors.

benchmark[RW]

True if we are benchmarking this run.

bulk_threshold[RW]

Bulk threshold value. If the number of missing gems are above this threshold value, then a bulk download technique is used. (deprecated)

hash[R]
home[RW]

Where to install gems (deprecated)

path[RW]

Where to look for gems (deprecated)

rubygems_api_key[R]

API key for RubyGems.org

ssl_ca_cert[R]

Path name of directory or file of openssl CA certificate, used for remote https connection

ssl_verify_mode[R]

openssl verify mode value, used for remote https connection

update_sources[RW]

True if we want to update the SourceInfoCache every time, false otherwise

verbose[RW]

Verbose level of output:

  • false – No output

  • true – Normal output

  • :loud – Extra output

Public Class Methods

new(arg_list) click to toggle source

Create the config file object. args is the list of arguments from the command line.

The following command line options are handled early here rather than later at the time most command options are processed.

--config-file, --config-file==NAME

Obviously these need to be handled by the ConfigFile object to ensure we get the right config file.

--backtrace

Backtrace needs to be turned on early so that errors before normal option parsing can be properly handled.

--debug

Enable Ruby level debug messages. Handled early for the same reason as –backtrace.
