I can use gems like RSpec or Rails or Pry by calling their respective gem names, e.g. rspec
, rails
, pry
on the commandline. How can I achieve this with gems I create? I'm using bundler for the basic gem creation.
I actually had my executable in the /bin
folder.
Turns out my issue was that bundler's gem template is too smart for it's own good, and only includes files that have been committed to git. I hadn't actually committed the executable yet, so it wasn't picking it up:
# gemname.gemspec
gem.files = `git ls-files`.split($\)
