GemfileEntry
GemfileEntry converts a specified gem into text to add to the Gemfile. You have the option of specifying the latest version of the gem or the current version used on your project. I created this gem for use in my Rails Neutrino project, which automatically creates a new high-quality Rails app from scratch.
Installation
This gem requires curl. If you are in a Debian-based system, the command to install this is:
sudo apt-get install -y curl
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'gemfile_entry'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install gemfile_entry
Usage

Getting the Currently Used Version of a Gem
- Enter the following command:
GemfileEntry.active(name of gem)

Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
