…path and require it in your application. In fact, you can bundle this file into a gem, ship it to Gemcutter and with the help of Bundler , all your users have to do is specify " gem 'ournew-plugin' " in their Gemfile, and the rest is taken care of. With a little more imagination, and fun, we can extend our example above into a ' slowgrowl ' plugin, which will - you guessed it - growl at the developer anytime it detects a slow code path in your …

… HookR, and numerous other Rubygems . Contributor to Gemcutter, UtilityBelt, the DataMapper/SimpleDB adapter, and other projects.

Avdi has this to say about the challenge:

One of the hardest parts of getting started with a new programming language is picking problems to practice on. The problems need to be difficult enough to give you an opportunity to apply the features of the language, but small enough to complete in a reasonable amount of time. RPCFN is a great way …

In addition to a general desire to remove a dependency on Gemcutter, you might have dependencies on gems that are not on a publicly accessible gem repository.

To collect up all gems and place them into your app, run: bundle pack

When running bundle install in the future, Bundler will use packed gems, if available, in preference to gems available in other sources.

Conclusion

I hope these workflows have clarified the intent of Bundler 0.9 (and 1.0). During our work on earlier versions, …
