NAME rvm.pl

WARNING! This is an unstable development release not ready for production!

VERSION Version 0.003020

SYNOPSIS rvm.pl will provide a subset of the bash rvm.

INSTALL RUBY It is recommended to use Ruby::VersionManager with local::lib to avoid interference with possibly installed system ruby. Ruby::VersionManager comes with a script rvm.pl with following options.

version Show the version of Ruby::VersionManager.

        rvm.pl version

list List available ruby versions.

        rvm.pl list

updatedb Update database of available ruby versions.

        rvm.pl updatedb

install Install a ruby version. If no version is given the latest stable release will be installed. The program tries to guess the correct version from the provided string. It should at least match the major release. If you need to install a preview or rc version you will have to provide the full exact version.

Latest ruby

        rvm.pl install

Latest ruby-1.8

        rvm.pl install 1.8

Install preview

        rvm.pl install ruby-1.9.3-preview1

To use the Ruby::VersionManager source ruby_vmanager.rc.

        source ~/.ruby_vmanager/var/ruby_vmanager.rc

uninstall Remove a ruby version and the source dir including the downloaded archive. You have to provide the full exact version of the ruby you want to remove as shown with list.

        rvm.pl uninstall ruby-1.9.3-preview1

If you uninstall your currently active ruby version you have to
install/activate another version manually.

gem Pass arguments to the gem command.

        rvm.pl gem install unicorn # installs unicorn

Additionally you can use reinstall to reinstall your complete gemset.
With a file containing the output of 'gem list' you can reproduce
gemsets.

        rvm.pl gem reinstall gem_list.txt # installs all gems in the list exactly as given

        rvm.pl gem reinstall # reinstalls all installed gems

gemset Switch to another set of gems.

        rvm.pl gemset my_set

gemsets List gemsets.

        rvm.pl gemsets

LIMITATIONS AND TODO Currently Ruby::VersionManager is only running on Linux with bash installed. Better support of gemsets needs to be added.
