I’m pleased to announce the release 0.3.0 of gem-compiler project:
gem-compiler
A RubyGems plugin that generates binary (pre-compiled) gems.
Description
gem-compiler is a RubyGems plugin that helps generates binary gems
from
already existing ones without altering the original source code. It
compiles
Ruby C extensions and bundles the result into a new gem.
It uses an outside-in approach and leverages on existing RubyGems code
to
do it.
The result of the compilation is a binary gem built for your current
platform,
skipping the need of a compiler toolchain when installing it.
Installation
To install gem-compiler you need to use RubyGems:
$ gem install gem-compiler
Which will fetch and install the plugin. After that the compile
command
will be available through gem.
Changes:
0.3.0 (2014-04-19)
- Support RubyGems 2.2.x thanks to @drbrain
- Minor reorganization to make testing on Travis more easy
