Rubygems::S3

This rubygems plugin allows you to add private S3 rubygems repos as sources in your gemrc file.

There is no need to use this plugin anymore, except with older versions of rubygems, as this functionality has been merged into rubygems itself. See rubygems/rubygems#856

You'll need a recent version of rubygems.

gem update --system
gem install rubygems-s3

gem sources --add s3://key:secret@my-bucket/path-to-gems/

Then just gem install my-private-gem.

Alternatively you can omit the key and secret, but you'll need to get AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY into your environment some other way if you do that. It's strongly recommended that you create an IAM user specifically for this purpose, with access only to the list and get actions on the relevant s3 bucket.

Right now I'm publishing gems to our S3 bucket using s3fs and gem generate_index, eventually I'd like to create better tooling.

Currently this works by monkey patching the Gem::RemoteFetcher class, as it's not yet fully plugin-able. I'm working to improve that, at which time the implementation will become cleaner, but usage will remain the same.
