<lazarus477> How does one search amongst available packages? Doing "gem search packagename" only appears to search amongst locally installed packages.
<tmoore> lazarus477: that doesn't sound right... it should search remote
<tmoore> lazarus477: do you have a ~/.gemrc or /etc/gemrc file?

<lazarus477> tmoore: Nope, but I do have ~/.gem
<tmoore> Hmm can you paste the output into a gist when you run gem search?
<lazarus477> What is a gist?
<tmoore> it's a convenient way to share a lot of text with people in IRC without filling the room with all of the output
<tmoore> paste your terminal into that text box, click one of the Create buttons, and paste the link in here
<lazarus477> tmoore: Had you said pastebin, then I would have undestod better, haha.
<lazarus477> The host is Debian Wheezy.
<lazarus477> I have setup rails applications in the past but today I thought I would actually try to use the gem command with more competence.
<lazarus477> In the past I have simply followed installation instructions.
<lazarus477> Yea! Now that is what I would expect to see...
<tmoore> What if you try 'gem search -r rails'
<lazarus477> tmoore: That solved it, ty.
<tmoore> strange... it should search remote by default, unless you've configured it not to
<lazarus477> Apparently I need to explicitly tell gem to search remote sources.
<lazarus477> I ain't done zilch. I just installed gems a few mins ago and I have not touched anything.
<tmoore> can you gist the output from 'gem env'?
<lazarus477> gem env, hmm. Perhaps that is my issue. Perhaps I need to log out and back in!
<tmoore> That should print all of your config settings and the version you're using
<lazarus477> Yup
<tmoore> Looks like the default changed in 2.0 https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/commit/cefe716
<tmoore> Before that you had to tell it -r
<lazarus477> That explains it.
<tmoore> cool, mystery solved :-)
<lazarus477> Yup
<tmoore> (you can run 'gem update --system' to upgrade to the latest)
<lazarus477> Ah
<lazarus477> Thanks for that tip.
<lazarus477> And I just thought of typing "gem help search" which explains -r perfectly.
<lazarus477> gem reminds me of using aptitude, emerge, pacman, drush and so forth. Nice package manager.
<lazarus477> tmoore: I installed gem using the debian package from apt. Doing a gem update --system would break the installation opening up a hole in the space time continium. Got a major warning prompt about it. Just for your information.
<lazarus477> Anyhow I am a happy puppy, now I can do more with gem.
<tmoore> Ah yeah maybe not then... I'd recommend managing Ruby with rvm, rbenv, or chruby if you're planning on doing development and might need multiple versions of Ruby
<lazarus477> tmoore: Na, just running a rails app: Redmine
<lazarus477> I did read up on rvm and rbenv though.
<lazarus477> Looks very useful for the dev folks.

<electrical> hi all. is there a way to get the metadata field content from a gem before actually installing the gem? via the rubygems / Gem api ?
<electrical> and i mean the part that can be set with http://guides.rubygems.org/specification-reference/#metadata

<darix> drbrain: is the < 5.0 in ' s.add_runtime_dependency(%q<rdoc>, ["< 5.0", "~> 4.0"])'
<darix> drbrain: is the < 5.0 in ' s.add_runtime_dependency(%q<rdoc>, ["< 5.0", "~> 4.0"])' not implied by the ~> 4.0 ?
<electrical> darix: i would have assumed so. but not sure

<drbrain> electrical: I think gem spec -r some_gem metadata will do it
x1337807x has joined #rubygems
<electrical> drbrain: thanks. i did manage to get it sorted, i wanted to get via ruby it self.
<drbrain> electrical: sure, if `gem spec` does what you want I can point you at the proper APIs too
