I'm building an application with the intent of distributing it to people that won't have rubycocoa installed. I believe I've successfully included the rubycocoa framework and the ruby runtime library, however I still need to include one or two gems before I'm done. I read: http://rubycocoa.sourceforge.net/EmbedRubyCocoa I tried standaloneify.rb, but as far as I could tell it broke my application. Is there a simple way to include ruby gems? I thought maybe I could store them in Resources, but xcode doesn't seem to like it when I do that. I read that you can specify the path to modules, but does anyone have any suggestions as to the right way to get the gems included in the application? I hope this is an appropriate question. I'm inexperienced. Ferlander |

Hi,
What I generally do is:
* Create a vendor/gems directory
* Unpack the gems into that directory
* Add the directory to your xcode project as a folder reference (this
means xcode will copy the dir and its contents to the Resources dir
* Add the gem dirs to the load path. For instance something like this
in rb_main.rb:
Dir.glob("#{File.join(NSBundle.mainBundle.resourcesPath,
'vendor/gems')}/*").each do |gem|
$:.unshift gem
require gem
end
(Note that I just wrote this down and might contain slight errors.)
HTH,
Eloy

Thanks for your reply,
I'm still having some trouble, though. I've implemented your suggestion, but
the gem is still not found.
I think I may be off course, though, because if I require 'rubygems' before
I require the particular gem the app does run (only on my computer, of
course). So I'm afraid my app may not be pointing to the bundled gems. Sorry
in advance if this next thought is way off base, but does rubygems create
some kind of directory/path list that I might need to include?
Are there any other details about requiring gems that might seem obvious? I
am pretty inexperienced, and what's obvious to some might have gone over my
head.

Ah, I forgot to add the the "lib" part of the gem path, which is
usually the only needed search path that a gem needs. (You can check
the gemspec of the gem to see if it needs any additional load paths.)
So try something like: $:.unshift File.join(gem, 'lib')
And maybe inspect the load paths with: p $:

Oh and you shouldn't require rubygems anymore. It should work without
it and your app will boot much faster.

Thanks, it looks like this is working:
Dir.glob("#{File.join(OSX::NSBundle.mainBundle.resourcePath,
'vendor/gems')}/*").each do |gem|
$:.unshift File.join(gem, 'lib')
puts "We made it this far 2"
#require gem
end
Look ok?
Thanks for your help! =)
