[Cucumber] running `cucumber` without a gem

Testing RSpec
1

Hey list,

I have a test server, which doesn’t have cucumber as gem, so I
unpacked it into vendor/gems. After some fiddling with load paths, it
works.
However, the “binary” cucumber command won’t run, since it needs the
cucumber gem. I tried adjusting that file to actually use the unpacked
gem, but I can’t get it to work. What I have now is
http://gist.github.com/63844

Any ideas?
thanks,
bartz

I haven’t tried this, but take a peek at 63853’s gists · GitHub

The path should include ‘lib’, and you shouldn’t need the other
version resolution stuff.

HTH,

Alas, that didn’t work. See http://gist.github.com/63874

thanks so far!

try “load 'cucumber.rb”

Still no dice. Weird, such a simple concept, but it just won’t work…

Is your file path wrong? I see:

$:.unshift ‘vendor/gems/cucumber-0.1.6/lib’

Shouldn’t that be:

$:.unshift ‘vendor/gems/cucumber-0.1.16/lib’

??

D’oh! Great catch!
However, it still doesn’t work :(. See gist:65073 · GitHub
It loads cucumber, then exits without running any features.
