Ruby/IRB not seeing installed Gems, thoughts?

Using “gem query --local” I’m returned a list of installed gems, one of
which is called “relax”.

However, within the IRB I cannot require this gem. Setting up a simple
Ruby script I cannot do an include on it either as it returns a message
that it can’t find the gem.


irb(main):001:0> require ‘relax’
LoadError: no such file to load – relax
from (irb):1:in `require’
from (irb):1
irb(main):002:0> require ‘test/unit’
=> true
irb(main):003:0>


This is the error returned when running demo code for the gem itself:
./flickr.rb:8: uninitialized constant Relax::API (NameError)
from test.rb:3:in `require’
from test.rb:3

Thoughts? I’m running on OSX. Could it be my Ruby install?

You didn’t tried:

require ‘rubygems’
require ‘relax’

AFAIK, there is no RUBYOPT set under Darwin that automatically loads
rubygems.

Try doit manually.

HTH,

Thanks, what a major duh moment. Just needed a second set of eyes.
