Gem::Command

Base class for all Gem commands. When creating a new gem command, define initialize, execute, arguments, defaults_str, description and usage (as appropriate). See the above mentioned methods for details.

A very good example to look at is Gem::Commands::ContentsCommand

Attributes

command[R]

The name of the command.

defaults[RW]

The default options for the command.

options[R]

The options for the command.

program_name[RW]

The name of the command for command-line invocation.

summary[RW]

A short description of the command.

end
add_specific_extra_args(cmd,args) click to toggle source

Add a list of extra arguments for the given command. args may be an array or a string to be split on white space.

end

end
new(command, summary=nil, defaults={}) click to toggle source

Initializes a generic gem command named command. summary is a short description displayed in `gem help commands`. defaults are the default options. Defaults should be mirrored in defaults_str, unless there are none.

When defining a new command subclass, use add_option to add command-line switches.

Unhandled arguments (gem names, files, etc.) are left in options[:args].

 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 121
def initialize(command, summary=nil, defaults={})
  @command = command
  @summary = summary
  @program_name = "gem #{command}"
  @defaults = defaults
  @options = defaults.dup
  @option_groups = Hash.new {|h,k| h[k] = [] }
  @deprecated_options = { command => {} }
  @parser = nil
  @when_invoked = nil
end
specific_extra_args(cmd) click to toggle source

Return an array of extra arguments for the command. The extra arguments come from the gem configuration file read at program startup.

 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 87
def self.specific_extra_args(cmd)
  specific_extra_args_hash[cmd]
end
specific_extra_args_hash() click to toggle source

Accessor for the specific extra args hash (self initializing).

 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 103
def self.specific_extra_args_hash
  @specific_extra_args_hash ||= Hash.new do |h,k|
    h[k] = Array.new
  end
end

Public Instance Methods

add_extra_args(args) click to toggle source

Adds extra args from ~/.gemrc

 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 451
def add_extra_args(args)
  result = []

  s_extra = Gem::Command.specific_extra_args(@command)
  extra = Gem::Command.extra_args + s_extra

  until extra.empty? do
    ex = []
    ex << extra.shift
    ex << extra.shift if extra.first.to_s =~ /^[^-]/ # rubocop:disable Performance/StartWith
    result << ex if handles?(ex)
  end

  result.flatten!
  result.concat(args)
  result
end
add_option(*opts) click to toggle source

Add a command-line option and handler to the command.

See Gem::OptionParser#make_switch for an explanation of opts.

handler will be called with two values, the value of the argument and the options hash.

If the first argument of add_option is a Symbol, it's used to group options in output. See `gem help list` for an example.

 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 355
def add_option(*opts, &handler) # :yields: value, options
  group_name = Symbol === opts.first ? opts.shift : :options

  raise "Do not pass an empty string in opts" if opts.include?("")

  @option_groups[group_name] << [opts, handler]
end
arguments() click to toggle source

Override to provide details of the arguments a command takes. It should return a left-justified string, one argument per line.

For example:

def usage
  "#{program_name} FILE [FILE ...]"
end

def arguments
  "FILE          name of file to find"
end

 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 255
def arguments
  ""
end
begins?(long, short) click to toggle source

True if long begins with the characters from short.

 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 136
def begins?(long, short)
  return false if short.nil?
  long[0, short.length] == short
end
check_deprecated_options(options) click to toggle source 
 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 394
def check_deprecated_options(options)
  options.each do |option|
    if option_is_deprecated?(option)
      deprecation = @deprecated_options[command][option]
      version_to_expire = deprecation["rg_version_to_expire"]

      deprecate_option_msg = if version_to_expire
                               "The \"#{option}\" option has been deprecated and will be removed in Rubygems #{version_to_expire}."
                             else
                               "The \"#{option}\" option has been deprecated and will be removed in future versions of Rubygems."
                             end

      extra_msg = deprecation["extra_msg"]

      deprecate_option_msg += " #{extra_msg}" if extra_msg

      alert_warning(deprecate_option_msg)
    end
  end
end
defaults_str() click to toggle source

Override to display the default values of the command options. (similar to arguments, but displays the default values).

For example:

def defaults_str
  --no-gems-first --no-all
end
 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 269
def defaults_str
  ""
end
deprecate_option(name, version: nil, extra_msg: nil) click to toggle source

Mark a command-line option as deprecated, and optionally specify a deprecation horizon.

Note that with the current implementation, every version of the option needs to be explicitly deprecated, so to deprecate an option defined as

add_option('-t', '--[no-]test', 'Set test mode') do |value, options|
  # ... stuff ...
end

you would need to explicitly add a call to `deprecate_option` for every version of the option you want to deprecate, like

deprecate_option('-t')
deprecate_option('--test')
deprecate_option('--no-test')

 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 390
def deprecate_option(name, version: nil, extra_msg: nil)
  @deprecated_options[command].merge!({ name => { "rg_version_to_expire" => version, "extra_msg" => extra_msg } })
end
deprecated?() click to toggle source 
 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 469
def deprecated?
  false
end
description() click to toggle source

Override to display a longer description of what this command does.

 
               # File rubygems/command.rb, line 276
def description
  nil
end
execute() click to toggle source

Override to provide command handling.

options will be filled in with your parsed options, unparsed options will be left in options[:args].

    raise Gem::CommandLineError,
          "Please specify at least one gem name (e.g. gem build GEMNAME)"
  end

    raise Gem::CommandLineError,
          "Please specify a gem name on the command line (e.g. gem build GEMNAME)"
  end
