| Parent: | Rake::PackageTask |
Create a package based upon a Gem::Specification. Gem packages, as well as zip files and tar/gzipped packages can be produced by this task.
In addition to the Rake targets generated by Rake::PackageTask, a Gem::PackageTask will also generate the following tasks:
Example using a Gem::Specification:
require 'rubygems'
require 'rubygems/package_task'
spec = Gem::Specification.new do |s|
s.platform = Gem::Platform::RUBY
s.summary = "Ruby based make-like utility."
s.name = 'rake'
s.version = PKG_VERSION
s.requirements << 'none'
s.require_path = 'lib'
s.autorequire = 'rake'
s.files = PKG_FILES
s.description = <<-EOF
Rake is a Make-like program implemented in Ruby. Tasks
and dependencies are specified in standard Ruby syntax.
EOF
end
Gem::PackageTask.new(spec) do |pkg|
pkg.need_zip = true
pkg.need_tar = true
end
| gem_spec | [RW] | Ruby Gem::Specification containing the metadata for this package. The name, version and package_files are automatically determined from the gemspec and don‘t need to be explicitly provided. |
Create the Rake tasks and actions specified by this Gem::PackageTask. (define is automatically called if a block is given to new).
