BASH completion for Ruby
by Vít Ondruch 25 May '16

25 May '16

Hi guys, Anybody have any experience with some scripts for bash completion? Have you tried any? Should we integrate any? Just a quick googling gave me two results: https://github.com/mernen/completion-ruby https://github.com/pdkl95/rubygems-completion And there are probably others. I did not tried them yet. Have you? Do you have other/better tips? Thank you Vit

Filtering automatic provides
by Vít Ondruch 03 Oct '13

03 Oct '13

Hi Rubyists, Binary ruby- and rubygem- packages ships .so files. These .so files are picked up by RPM's automatic Requires/Provides generater and they are listed among provides, e.g.: $ repoquery -q --provides rubygem-sqlite3 rubygem(sqlite3) = 1.3.5-4.fc19 rubygem-sqlite3 = 1.3.5-4.fc19 rubygem-sqlite3(x86-64) = 1.3.5-4.fc19 sqlite3_native.so()(64bit) However, these .so files are not useful outside of Ruby world and they might even conflict with some system library (although I don't have any example at my hand currently). So I believe, we should filter out these automatic provides, as is done in Perl for example. Therefore, since F19, there are available %{?ruby_default_filter} and %{?rubygems_default_filter} macros, which allow to filter out these provides. For your curiosity, this is their implementation: %ruby_default_filter %{expand: \ %global __provides_exclude_from %{?__provides_exclude_from:%{__provides_exclude_from}|}^(%{ruby_vendorarchdir}|%{ruby_sitearchdir})/.*\\\\.so$ \ } %rubygems_default_filter %{expand: \ %global __provides_exclude_from %{?__provides_exclude_from:%{__provides_exclude_from}|}^%{gem_extdir_mri}/.*\\\\.so$ \ } If nobody objects, I am going to propose usage of these macros into Ruby packaging guidelines [1].

regin LoadError with rack-mount and backports when trying to run unicorn
by Achilleas Pipinellis 24 Sep '13

24 Sep '13

Ok the title is a little bit mouthful and it contains 4 gems so I'll break it down. I am trying to run unicorn and get GitLab to work. In unicorn's error log I see the following: /usr/share/gems/gems/backports-3.3.2/lib/backports/tools.rb:328:in `require': cannot load such file -- regin (LoadError) I checked the aforementioned line [0] and I found no reference to regin. It appears that regin comes as a bundled gem of rack-mount. I checked the rack-mount.spec [2] and I saw that we ship it without the bundled regin. In an effort to see if this will work, I copied the removed vendor/ in /usr/share/gems/... and it worked. I guess the reason is because in rack-mount/lib/rack/mount/utils.rb the path to regin is hardcoded to point in vendor/ [3]. I will file a bug report but I wouldn't know how to describe the steps to reproduce it. Any hints? TL;DR rack-mount raises LoadError without the bundled regin.

Need some help writing gitlab and gitlab-shell specs
by Achilleas Pipinellis 24 Sep '13

24 Sep '13

Cross posting this in ruby-sig since this concerns ruby packaging and in devel since I have some more generic questions. Excuse me if I created unecessary noise. For those not familiar with the project, you'll find some info here [http://axilleas.me/tag/gsoc.html]. Let me start with the directory structure of these packages. We have two locations: 1) where the main gitlab and gtlab-shell rails apps reside, 2) where git repositories and their satellites[0] are. I have asked in #fedora-infra what FHS they use with the git repos in fedorahosted and we concluded that the rails apps would go to /usr/share/ and git repos and satellites to /usr/lib/. Now, when specifing %{_libdir} in a spec, it gets /usr/lib64/ on a x86_64 machine. I wouldn't want to install gitlab in different dirs when different arches, so for now I used /var/lib/ for that purpose. I guess I could excplicitly say /usr/lib/gitlab/ but anyway. So the current structure is: |-- /usr/share/gitlab/ | |-- gitlab/ | |-- gitlab-shell/ | |-- /var/lib/gitlab/ | |-- satellites/ | |-- repositories/ | |-- .ssh/authorized_keys | |-- /etc/gitlab/ | |-- gitlab.yml | |-- shell.yml | |-- database.yml | |-- unicorn.rb In /etc there will be configuration files with symlinks in the rails app dirs. What are your thoughts on the directory locations? Do you agree? And now my questions about the specs. FYI I have seen the katello.spec and took some info from there[1]. gitlab-shell.spec ----------------- This is kinda finished. SPEC: https://github.com/axilleas/fedora/blob/master/packages/gitlab-shell/gitlab… I tested the package and the appropriate user and group are created when install/upgrade but when uninstalling, the homedir doesn't get removed. I suspect this has something to do with useradd and protecting the homedir of the user? gitlab.spec ----------- This is a draft, I didn't test to install yet. SPEC: https://github.com/axilleas/fedora/blob/master/packages/gitlab/gitlab.spec ## Ruby specific - rake tasks Many jobs, like the backup, initial database seed, etc. are done with rake tasks. How do we invoke them without getting in the app root dir every time? Is there some sort of mechanism for that? - Are Gemfile and Gemfile.lock really needed for the app to work? If yes how can we avoid this? Using bundler_ext? If yes, how? This is an interesting question as katello uses bundler_ext but I haven't yet understood how that works. Any tip would be appreciated. For now, in the test instance I set up, unicorn checks the Gemfile and if not found it doesn't spawn. Here is an entry in its log when I removed the Gemfile: I, [2013-09-19T21:00:13.056391 #18224] INFO -- : Refreshing Gem list and then an error occured. ## Generic - symlink logs to /var/log/gitlab/ Not all logs' directory is configurable. GitLab uses the logs found in app_dir/log/ and displays them via its ui to the admin users. Should I symlink these logs to /var/log/ for ease of access? - pids: move to /var/run/gitlab/ (?) GitLab is practically running using unicorn and sidekiq. These two create each its own pid file in app_dir/tmp/pids/ by default. Luckily this is configurable via their configs or systemd services. Also unicorn creates a gitlab.socket which uses to speak with the app. If we use apache this isn't needed, but with nginx we can use it. I was thinking it could go under /var/run/gitlab/ too. - how to support both databases. Is it feasible? GitLab supports mysql(mariadb for us) and postgres. How do we deal with these cases inside a spec file? For now, I have added a comment about the postgres config and made mariadb the default one. - ownership of directories In upstream installation guide, gitlab and gitlab-shell reside in the same location that's why I decided to have them both under /usr/share/gitlab/. And my question is, which package owns /usr/share/gitlab/? Both? Thanks for reading, it took me quite a few hours to compose :) [0] satellites is a directory where it is stored information about the merge requests, forks, etc of each git repository.

ruby/config.h in Ruby 1.9 devel package
by Dan Allen 18 Sep '13

18 Sep '13

While attempting to compile Rubinius on Fedora, I ran into the problem that it could not locate the following header file: /usr/include/ruby/config.h As it turns out, this file is located in an arch-specific directory in the Ruby 1.9 devel package: /usr/include/x86_64/ruby/config.h as you can see here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?rpmID=3705765 In the Ruby 2.0 devel package, it's in the expected location, as you can see here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?rpmID=4216149 Should this be fixed? -Dan -- Dan Allen | http://google.com/profiles/dan.j.allen

/usr/share/gems/doc ownership
by Ken Dreyer 17 Sep '13

17 Sep '13

jvcelak recently pointed out that the rubygems package does not own /usr/share/gems/doc . This was news to me. I guess this changed earlier this year: commit 1d350ea912e72d30c7d079449db926ed4cb652a9 Author: TASAKA Mamoru <mtasaka(a)localhost.localdomain> Date: Mon Feb 25 18:05:45 2013 +0900 Split out ri-generated documentation I have a workstation that I updated from Fedora 17 to 19, and while I don't have rubygems-doc installed, I still have a /usr/share/gems/doc directory on this computer: $ rpm -qf /usr/share/gems/doc file /usr/share/gems/doc is not owned by any package So this looks like something broke there :( My bigger question is what to do about the Fedora Package Guidelines. jvcelak pointed out that the requirement "Package must own all directories that it creates" means that simply installing "rubygems" is no longer enough to satisfy the dependency for my rubygem's -doc subpackage. All rubygem-*-doc subpackages must now also require rubygems-doc in order to comply with this guideline. (I have confirmed that adding Requires: rubygems-doc to my -doc subpackage will silence the warning from fedora-review.) Can we please make the main rubygems RPM provide an empty %dir /usr/share/gems/doc? This would avoid the need to change all the rubygems packages that ship a -doc subpackage. It would also avoid the unnecessary installation of rubygems-doc whenever installing a single gem's -doc subpackage. - Ken

review swap for acts-as-taggable-on
by Ken Dreyer 13 Sep '13

13 Sep '13

I have packaged rubygem-acts-as-taggable for review: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1007635 It's got a few patches to build with Rails 4, but otherwise it's very simple. I'm happy to trade a package review for this one. - Ken

Bringing GitLab in Fedora
by Axilleas Pipinellis 09 Sep '13

09 Sep '13

Hello dear list! I am applying for this year's GSOC [0] and I would like to contribute by bringing GitLab [1][2] in Fedora. For those that don't already know GitLab, it is a Self hosted Git management software written on Ruby on Rails, pretty much like github's interface (you can try a demo here [3]). It is a ruby app with lots of dependencies and I think this is a great opportunity to extend the list of packaged gems supported by Fedora. Let alone the fact that with the momentum GitLab has gained (it is in the top 50 most popular open source projects on github) it would be an asset if Fedora had this packaged. Also, the core developer was more than willing to help with the process [4]. I could use any help needed on packaging. I have already exchanged a couple of mails with Vit Ondruch and he pointed me to a direction. In fact I am in the middle of reading all the related stuff from the wiki. So what are your thoughts? Any guidance, ideas or insights are very much appreciated! Regards, Axilleas PS. There is also the thought of deploying GitLab to git repositories on fedorahosted.org, but that's irrelevant to this list.
