Rcov as a plugin

Rails
1

hi, i’ve got a site under shared hosting for my mini rails app.

I want to use RCOV to automate some tasks but need the gem to do it,

http://eigenclass.org/hiki.rb?rcov

Any ideas if I can download this as a standalone plugin i can put into
the shared-hosting site rather than ask the hoster to install the gem
for me (which they won’t).

stuck ?

Set GEM_HOME / GEM_PATH so that gem will search for gems in other
places than the defaults (eg folders you can write to) ?

thanks, that plugin is based off of rcov but thanks for the link.

giving up with joyent’s shared host for my blog, too much
un-controllable downtime so switching back to a dedicated box; so as i
can control every aspect of my beautiful blog.

all the best,

John.
