A module to manage ruby version manager

##Class: rvm

###Description RVM is the Ruby Version Manager. It allows you to install and manage several different versions and implementations of Ruby on one computer, including the ability to manage different sets of RubyGems one each.

###Parameters: This module takes no parameters directly. Reference ruby::define::{gem,user,version} for rvm management.

###Actions: Installs RVM, manages active versions, and can install gems for specific RVM instances.

###Requires:

• Development Libraries: RVM manually compiles ruby, and requires dev libraries to bootstrap
• Class[stdlib]. This is Puppet Labs standard library to include additional methods for use within Puppet. [https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-stdlib]

###Sample Usage:

Install Ruby 1.8.7 and set as the default system ruby.

  rvm::define::version { 'ruby-1.8.7':
    ensure => 'present',
    system => 'true',
  }

Install Ruby Enterprise

  rvm::define::version { 'ree':
    ensure => 'present',
  }

Install Gem to specific RVM version

  rvm::define::gem { 'puppet':
    ensure       => 'present',
    gem_version  => '2.7.2',
    ruby_version => 'ree',
  }

puppet-rvm's Issues

Support for installing binary gems

In an effort to not have build tools install on all systems. puppet-rvm should support pointing to a local gem server. This gem server would host binary gems.

For building binary gems I found this tool: https://github.com/luislavena/gem-compiler

Support for RVM Binary install

RVM supports installing pre-built Ruby binaries, stored on RVM servers with:

rvm install --binary.

It also supports building binaries , so you can build your own Ruby binaries with:

rvm prepare 1.9.3 --install

I would like to maintain my own builds, as it allows IT provide support for the entire organization. puppet-rvm should support install ruby binary, along with support defining where do download the binaries.

• rvm_system_server_path - can be defined in $rvm_path/user/db, autodetected if not defined
• rvm_ruby_string - is the name specified by user
