How to include gems in compiled macruby apps?

I have a simple ruby script, which I compile to a standalone Mac app with macruby (with macruby dylib bundled etc).

Recently I've added a require for digest/sha1, and I've noticed that after this the compiled app doesn't work on machines that don't have MacRuby installed. (i get a no such file to load -- digest/sha1 (LoadError) Is there a way to bundle the internal digest gem to the compiled app?

Thanks.

Solution

  • The solution was to use macruby_deploy on the app bundle like so:
    macruby_deploy --embed /path/to/bundle.app

    It will embed the entire framework.
