# gems Cookbook

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/chef-cookbooks/gems.svg?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/chef-cookbooks/gems) [![Cookbook Version](https://img.shields.io/cookbook/v/gems.svg)](https://supermarket.chef.io/cookbooks/gems)

Sets up a local gem server repository.

## Requirements

### Platform

- Ubuntu / Debian

### Cookbooks

- apache2
- rsync

### Chef

- Chef 12.15+

## Attributes

- `gem_server['virtual_host_name']` - ServerName for Apache vhost. Default 'gems.domain'.
- `gem_server['virtual_host_alias']` - ServerAlias(es) for Apache vhost. Default 'gems'.
- `gem_server['directory']` - Filesystem location for the repository, default is /srv/gems.

## Usage

Create files/default/packages, and copy gems to that directory.

Specify the gem source on clients via the command line, for example:

```shell
sudo gem source -a http://gems
sudo gem install rails --source http://gems
```

Or use the source with gem_package resources in your chef recipes.

```ruby
gem_package "rails" do
source "http://gems"
end
```

Use the gems::mirror recipe to mirror RubyForge. This will take a long time because the repository is 28k+ gems and over 5.5G. It will also override the remote_directory resource to not notify gem generate_index, and instead handle that in the cron job that does the rsync.
