Overview

Base class for all Gem commands. When creating a new gem command, define #initialize, #execute, #arguments, #defaults_str, #description and #usage (as appropriate). See the above mentioned methods for details.

A very good example to look at is Gem::Commands::ContentsCommand

Constructor Details

#initialize(command, summary = nil, defaults = {}) ⇒ Command

Initializes a generic gem command named command. summary is a short description displayed in ‘gem help commands`. defaults are the default options. Defaults should be mirrored in #defaults_str, unless there are none.

When defining a new command subclass, use add_option to add command-line switches.

Unhandled arguments (gem names, files, etc.) are left in options[:args].

#add_option(*opts, &handler) ⇒ Object

Add a command-line option and handler to the command.

See Gem::OptionParser#make_switch for an explanation of opts.

handler will be called with two values, the value of the argument and the options hash.

If the first argument of add_option is a Symbol, it’s used to group options in output. See ‘gem help list` for an example.

  raise "Do not pass an empty string in opts" if opts.include?("")

  @option_groups[group_name] << [opts, handler]
end

#argumentsObject

Override to provide details of the arguments a command takes. It should return a left-justified string, one argument per line.

For example:

def usage
  "#{program_name} FILE [FILE ...]"
end

def arguments
  "FILE          name of file to find"

#defaults_strObject

Override to display the default values of the command options. (similar to arguments, but displays the default values).

For example:

def defaults_str
  --no-gems-first --no-all
end

274
# File 'lib/rubygems/command.rb', line 272

def defaults_str
  ""
end

#deprecate_option(name, version: nil, extra_msg: nil) ⇒ Object

Mark a command-line option as deprecated, and optionally specify a deprecation horizon.

Note that with the current implementation, every version of the option needs to be explicitly deprecated, so to deprecate an option defined as

add_option('-t', '--[no-]test', 'Set test mode') do |value, options|
  # ... stuff ...
end

you would need to explicitly add a call to ‘deprecate_option` for every version of the option you want to deprecate, like

deprecate_option('-t')
deprecate_option('--test')
deprecate_option('--no-test')

  • (Boolean)

end

#executeObject

Override to provide command handling.

#options will be filled in with your parsed options, unparsed options will be left in options[:args].
