Gemfile(5) -- A format for describing gem dependencies for Ruby programs
========================================================================

## SYNOPSIS

A `Gemfile` describes the gem dependencies required to execute associated
Ruby code.

Place the `Gemfile` in the root of the directory containing the associated
code. For instance, in a Rails application, place the `Gemfile` in the same
directory as the `Rakefile`.

## SYNTAX

A `Gemfile` is evaluated as Ruby code, in a context which makes available
a number of methods used to describe the gem requirements.

## GLOBAL SOURCES

At the top of the `Gemfile`, add a line for the `Rubygems` source that contains
the gems listed in the `Gemfile`.

    source "https://rubygems.org"

It is possible, but not recommended as of Bundler 1.7, to add multiple global
`source` lines. Each of these `source`s `MUST` be a valid Rubygems repository.

Sources are checked for gems following the heuristics described in
[SOURCE PRIORITY][]. If a gem is found in more than one global source, Bundler
will print a warning after installing the gem indicating which source was used,
and listing the other sources where the gem is available. A specific source can
be selected for gems that need to use a non-standard repository, suppressing
this warning, by using the [`:source` option](#SOURCE-source-) or a
[`source` block](#BLOCK-FORM-OF-SOURCE-GIT-PATH-GROUP-and-PLATFORMS).

### CREDENTIALS

Some gem sources require a username and password. Use [bundle config(1)][bundle-config] to set
the username and password for any of the sources that need it. The command must
be run once on each computer that will install the Gemfile, but this keeps the
credentials from being stored in plain text in version control.

    bundle config gems.example.com user:password

For some sources, like a company Gemfury account, it may be easier to
include the credentials in the Gemfile as part of the source URL.

    source "https://user:password@gems.example.com"

Credentials in the source URL will take precedence over credentials set using
`config`.

## RUBY

If your application requires a specific Ruby version or engine, specify your
requirements using the `ruby` method, with the following arguments.
All parameters are `OPTIONAL` unless otherwise specified.

### VERSION (required)

The version of Ruby that your application requires. If your application
requires an alternate Ruby engine, such as JRuby or Rubinius, this should be
the Ruby version that the engine is compatible with.

    ruby "1.9.3"

### ENGINE

Each application _may_ specify a Ruby engine. If an engine is specified, an
engine version _must_ also be specified.

### ENGINE VERSION

Each application _may_ specify a Ruby engine version. If an engine version is
specified, an engine _must_ also be specified. If the engine is "ruby" the
engine version specified _must_ match the Ruby version.

    ruby "1.8.7", :engine => "jruby", :engine_version => "1.6.7"

### PATCHLEVEL

Each application _may_ specify a Ruby patchlevel.

    ruby "2.0.0", :patchlevel => "247"

## GEMS

Specify gem requirements using the `gem` method, with the following arguments.
All parameters are `OPTIONAL` unless otherwise specified.

### NAME (required)

For each gem requirement, list a single _gem_ line.

    gem "nokogiri"

### VERSION

Each _gem_ `MAY` have one or more version specifiers.

    gem "nokogiri", ">= 1.4.2"
    gem "RedCloth", ">= 4.1.0", "< 4.2.0"

### REQUIRE AS

Each _gem_ `MAY` specify files that should be used when autorequiring via
`Bundler.require`. You may pass an array with multiple files or `true` if file
you want `required` has same name as _gem_ or `false` to
prevent any file from being autorequired.

    gem "redis", :require => ["redis/connection/hiredis", "redis"]
    gem "webmock", :require => false
    gem "debugger", :require => true

The argument defaults to the name of the gem. For example, these are identical:

    gem "nokogiri"
    gem "nokogiri", :require => "nokogiri"
    gem "nokogiri", :require => true

### GROUPS

Each _gem_ `MAY` specify membership in one or more groups. Any _gem_ that does
not specify membership in any group is placed in the `default` group.

    gem "rspec", :group => :test
    gem "wirble", :groups => [:development, :test]

The Bundler runtime allows its two main methods, `Bundler.setup` and
`Bundler.require`, to limit their impact to particular groups.

    # setup adds gems to Ruby's load path
    Bundler.setup                    # defaults to all groups
    require "bundler/setup"          # same as Bundler.setup
    Bundler.setup(:default)          # only set up the _default_ group
    Bundler.setup(:test)             # only set up the _test_ group (but `not` _default_)
    Bundler.setup(:default, :test)   # set up the _default_ and _test_ groups, but no others

    # require requires all of the gems in the specified groups
    Bundler.require                  # defaults to the _default_ group
    Bundler.require(:default)        # identical
    Bundler.require(:default, :test) # requires the _default_ and _test_ groups
    Bundler.require(:test)           # requires the _test_ group

The Bundler CLI allows you to specify a list of groups whose gems `bundle install` should
not install with the `--without` option. To specify multiple groups to ignore, specify a
list of groups separated by spaces.

    bundle install --without test
    bundle install --without development test

After running `bundle install --without test`, bundler will remember that you excluded
the test group in the last installation. The next time you run `bundle install`,
without any `--without option`, bundler will recall it.

Also, calling `Bundler.setup` with no parameters, or calling `require "bundler/setup"`
will setup all groups except for the ones you excluded via `--without` (since they
are not available).

Note that on `bundle install`, bundler downloads and evaluates all gems, in order to
create a single canonical list of all of the required gems and their dependencies.
This means that you cannot list different versions of the same gems in different
groups. For more details, see [Understanding Bundler](http://bundler.io/rationale.html).

### PLATFORMS

If a gem should only be used in a particular platform or set of platforms, you can
specify them. Platforms are essentially identical to groups, except that you do not
need to use the `--without` install-time flag to exclude groups of gems for other
platforms.

There are a number of `Gemfile` platforms:

  * `ruby`:
    C Ruby (MRI) or Rubinius, but `NOT` Windows
  * `ruby_18`:
    _ruby_ `AND` version 1.8
  * `ruby_19`:
    _ruby_ `AND` version 1.9
  * `ruby_20`:
    _ruby_ `AND` version 2.0
  * `ruby_21`:
    _ruby_ `AND` version 2.1
  * `ruby_22`:
    _ruby_ `AND` version 2.2
  * `ruby_23`:
    _ruby_ `AND` version 2.3
  * `ruby_24`:
    _ruby_ `AND` version 2.4
  * `ruby_25`:
    _ruby_ `AND` version 2.5
  * `mri`:
    Same as _ruby_, but not Rubinius
  * `mri_18`:
    _mri_ `AND` version 1.8
  * `mri_19`:
    _mri_ `AND` version 1.9
  * `mri_20`:
    _mri_ `AND` version 2.0
  * `mri_21`:
    _mri_ `AND` version 2.1
  * `mri_22`:
    _mri_ `AND` version 2.2
  * `mri_23`:
    _mri_ `AND` version 2.3
  * `mri_24`:
    _mri_ `AND` version 2.4
  * `mri_25`:
    _mri_ `AND` version 2.5
  * `rbx`:
    Same as _ruby_, but only Rubinius (not MRI)
  * `jruby`:
    JRuby
  * `mswin`:
    Windows
  * `mingw`:
    Windows 32 bit 'mingw32' platform (aka RubyInstaller)
  * `mingw_18`:
    _mingw_ `AND` version 1.8
  * `mingw_19`:
    _mingw_ `AND` version 1.9
  * `mingw_20`:
    _mingw_ `AND` version 2.0
  * `mingw_21`:
    _mingw_ `AND` version 2.1
  * `mingw_22`:
    _mingw_ `AND` version 2.2
  * `mingw_23`:
    _mingw_ `AND` version 2.3
  * `mingw_24`:
    _mingw_ `AND` version 2.4
  * `mingw_25`:
    _mingw_ `AND` version 2.5
  * `x64_mingw`:
    Windows 64 bit 'mingw32' platform (aka RubyInstaller x64)
  * `x64_mingw_20`:
    _x64_mingw_ `AND` version 2.0
  * `x64_mingw_21`:
    _x64_mingw_ `AND` version 2.1
  * `x64_mingw_22`:
    _x64_mingw_ `AND` version 2.2
  * `x64_mingw_23`:
    _x64_mingw_ `AND` version 2.3
  * `x64_mingw_24`:
    _x64_mingw_ `AND` version 2.4
  * `x64_mingw_25`:
    _x64_mingw_ `AND` version 2.5

As with groups, you can specify one or more platforms:

    gem "weakling",   :platforms => :jruby
    gem "ruby-debug", :platforms => :mri_18
    gem "nokogiri",   :platforms => [:mri_18, :jruby]

All operations involving groups (`bundle install`, `Bundler.setup`,
`Bundler.require`) behave exactly the same as if any groups not
matching the current platform were explicitly excluded.

### SOURCE

You can select an alternate Rubygems repository for a gem using the ':source'
option.

    gem "some_internal_gem", :source => "https://gems.example.com"

This forces the gem to be loaded from this source and ignores any global sources
declared at the top level of the file. If the gem does not exist in this source,
it will not be installed.

Bundler will search for child dependencies of this gem by first looking in the
source selected for the parent, but if they are not found there, it will fall
back on global sources using the ordering described in [SOURCE PRIORITY][].

Selecting a specific source repository this way also suppresses the ambiguous
gem warning described above in
[GLOBAL SOURCES (#source)](#GLOBAL-SOURCES-source-).

### GIT

If necessary, you can specify that a gem is located at a particular
git repository using the `:git` parameter. The repository can be accessed via
several protocols:

  * `HTTP(S)`:
    gem "rails", :git => "https://github.com/rails/rails.git"
  * `SSH`:
    gem "rails", :git => "git@github.com:rails/rails.git"
  * `git`:
    gem "rails", :git => "git://github.com/rails/rails.git"

If using SSH, the user that you use to run `bundle install` `MUST` have the
appropriate keys available in their `$HOME/.ssh`.

`NOTE`: `http://` and `git://` URLs should be avoided if at all possible. These
protocols are unauthenticated, so a man-in-the-middle attacker can deliver
malicious code and compromise your system. HTTPS and SSH are strongly
preferred.

The `group`, `platforms`, and `require` options are available and behave
exactly the same as they would for a normal gem.

A git repository `SHOULD` have at least one file, at the root of the
directory containing the gem, with the extension `.gemspec`. This file
`MUST` contain a valid gem specification, as expected by the `gem build`
command.

If a git repository does not have a `.gemspec`, bundler will attempt to
create one, but it will not contain any dependencies, executables, or
C extension compilation instructions. As a result, it may fail to properly
integrate into your application.

If a git repository does have a `.gemspec` for the gem you attached it
to, a version specifier, if provided, means that the git repository is
only valid if the `.gemspec` specifies a version matching the version
specifier. If not, bundler will print a warning.

    gem "rails", "2.3.8", :git => "https://github.com/rails/rails.git"
    # bundle install will fail, because the .gemspec in the rails
    # repository's master branch specifies version 3.0.0

If a git repository does `not` have a `.gemspec` for the gem you attached
it to, a version specifier `MUST` be provided. Bundler will use this
version in the simple `.gemspec` it creates.

Git repositories support a number of additional options.

  * `branch`, `tag`, and `ref`:
    You `MUST` only specify at most one of these options. The default
    is `:branch => "master"`
  * `submodules`:
    Specify `:submodules => true` to cause bundler to expand any
    submodules included in the git repository

If a git repository contains multiple `.gemspecs`, each `.gemspec`
represents a gem located at the same place in the file system as
the `.gemspec`.

    |~rails                   [git root]
    | |-rails.gemspec         [rails gem located here]
    |~actionpack
    | |-actionpack.gemspec    [actionpack gem located here]
    |~activesupport
    | |-activesupport.gemspec [activesupport gem located here]
    |...

To install a gem located in a git repository, bundler changes to
the directory containing the gemspec, runs `gem build name.gemspec`
and then installs the resulting gem. The `gem build` command,
which comes standard with Rubygems, evaluates the `.gemspec` in
the context of the directory in which it is located.

### GIT SOURCE

A custom git source can be defined via the `git_source` method. Provide the source's name
as an argument, and a block which receives a single argument and interpolates it into a
string to return the full repo address:

    git_source(:stash){ |repo_name| "https://stash.corp.acme.pl/#{repo_name}.git" }
    gem 'rails', :stash => 'forks/rails'

In addition, if you wish to choose a specific branch:

    gem "rails", :stash => "forks/rails", :branch => "branch_name"

### GITHUB

`NOTE`: This shorthand should be avoided until Bundler 2.0, since it
currently expands to an insecure `git://` URL. This allows a
man-in-the-middle attacker to compromise your system.

If the git repository you want to use is hosted on GitHub and is public, you can use the
:github shorthand to specify the github username and repository name (without the
trailing ".git"), separated by a slash. If both the username and repository name are the
same, you can omit one.

    gem "rails", :github => "rails/rails"
    gem "rails", :github => "rails"

Are both equivalent to

    gem "rails", :git => "git://github.com/rails/rails.git"

Since the `github` method is a specialization of `git_source`, it accepts a `:branch` named argument.

### GIST

If the git repository you want to use is hosted as a Github Gist and is public, you can use
the :gist shorthand to specify the gist identifier (without the trailing ".git").

    gem "the_hatch", :gist => "4815162342"

Is equivalent to:

    gem "the_hatch", :git => "https://gist.github.com/4815162342.git"

Since the `gist` method is a specialization of `git_source`, it accepts a `:branch` named argument.

### BITBUCKET

If the git repository you want to use is hosted on Bitbucket and is public, you can use the
:bitbucket shorthand to specify the bitbucket username and repository name (without the
trailing ".git"), separated by a slash. If both the username and repository name are the
same, you can omit one.

    gem "rails", :bitbucket => "rails/rails"
    gem "rails", :bitbucket => "rails"

Are both equivalent to

    gem "rails", :git => "https://rails@bitbucket.org/rails/rails.git"

Since the `bitbucket` method is a specialization of `git_source`, it accepts a `:branch` named argument.

### PATH

You can specify that a gem is located in a particular location
on the file system. Relative paths are resolved relative to the
directory containing the `Gemfile`.

Similar to the semantics of the `:git` option, the `:path`
option requires that the directory in question either contains
a `.gemspec` for the gem, or that you specify an explicit
version that bundler should use.

Unlike `:git`, bundler does not compile C extensions for
gems specified as paths.

    gem "rails", :path => "vendor/rails"

If you would like to use multiple local gems directly from the filesystem, you can set a global `path` option to the path containing the gem's files. This will automatically load gemspec files from subdirectories.

    path 'components' do
      gem 'admin_ui'
      gem 'public_ui'
    end

## BLOCK FORM OF SOURCE, GIT, PATH, GROUP and PLATFORMS

The `:source`, `:git`, `:path`, `:group`, and `:platforms` options may be
applied to a group of gems by using block form.

    source "https://gems.example.com" do
      gem "some_internal_gem"
      gem "another_internal_gem"
    end

    git "https://github.com/rails/rails.git" do
      gem "activesupport"
      gem "actionpack"
    end

    platforms :ruby do
      gem "ruby-debug"
      gem "sqlite3"
    end

    group :development, :optional => true do
      gem "wirble"
      gem "faker"
    end

In the case of the group block form the :optional option can be given
to prevent a group from being installed unless listed in the `--with`
option given to the `bundle install` command.

In the case of the `git` block form, the `:ref`, `:branch`, `:tag`,
and `:submodules` options may be passed to the `git` method, and
all gems in the block will inherit those options.

## INSTALL_IF

The `install_if` method allows gems to be installed based on a proc or lambda.
This is especially useful for optional gems that can only be used if certain
software is installed or some other conditions are met.

    install_if -> { RUBY_PLATFORM =~ /darwin/ } do
      gem "pasteboard"
    end

## GEMSPEC

If you wish to use Bundler to help install dependencies for a gem while it is
being developed, use the `gemspec` method to pull in the dependencies listed in
the `.gemspec` file.

The `gemspec` method adds any runtime dependencies as gem requirements in the
default group. It also adds development dependencies as gem requirements in the
`development` group. Finally, it adds a gem requirement on your project (`:path
=> '.'`). In conjunction with `Bundler.setup`, this allows you to require project
files in your test code as you would if the project were installed as a gem; you
need not manipulate the load path manually or require project files via relative
paths.

The `gemspec` method supports optional `:path`, `:glob`, `:name`, and `:development_group`
options, which control where bundler looks for the `.gemspec`, the glob it uses to look
for the gemspec (defaults to: "{,*,*/*}.gemspec"), what named `.gemspec` it uses
(if more than one is present), and which group development dependencies are included in.

When a `gemspec` dependency encounters version conflicts during resolution, the
local version under development will always be selected -- even if there are
remote versions that better match other requirements for the `gemspec` gem.

## SOURCE PRIORITY

When attempting to locate a gem to satisfy a gem requirement,
bundler uses the following priority order:

  1. The source explicitly attached to the gem (using `:source`, `:path`, or
     `:git`)
  2. For implicit gems (dependencies of explicit gems), any source, git, or path
     repository declared on the parent. This results in bundler prioritizing the
     ActiveSupport gem from the Rails git repository over ones from
     `rubygems.org`
  3. The sources specified via global `source` lines, searching each source in
     your `Gemfile` from last added to first added.
