Ruby's bundle exec [memo]

Hey.

I mostly use PHP or Node.js and sometimes I have to touch Ruby projects.

I know I can run bundle install to install deps from Gemfile but I was unable to find them in the project directory.

It turned out the reason is they are installed globally. It doesn’t fit my needs sometimes so I had to find the way to install them locally.

They solution is:

  • bundle install --path=./local-dir-name

it will install packages into local directory but you were not be able to call binaries. Ok…

The solution for this is to run binaries via bundle exec like so:

  • bundle exec jekyll serve

Works perfectly.
