bundle binstubs
<GEM_NAME> [--force] [--path PATH] [--standalone]
Binstubs are scripts that wrap around executables. Bundler creates a
small Ruby file (a binstub) that loads Bundler, runs the command,
and puts it into bin/
. Binstubs are a shortcut-or alternative-
to always using bundle exec
. This gives you a file that can by run
directly, and one that will always run the correct gem version
used by the application.
For example, if you run bundle binstubs rspec-core
, Bundler will create
the file bin/rspec
. That file will contain enough code to load Bundler,
tell it to load the bundled gems, and then run rspec.
This command generates binstubs for executables in GEM_NAME
.
Binstubs are put into bin
, or the --path
directory if one has been set.
Calling binstubs with [GEM [GEM]] will create binstubs for all given gems.
-
--force
: Overwrite existing binstubs if they exist. -
--path
: The location to install the specified binstubs to. This defaults tobin
. -
--standalone
: Makes binstubs that can work without depending on Rubygems or Bundler at runtime. -
--shebang
: Specify a different shebang executable name than the default (default 'ruby')
To create binstubs for all the gems in the bundle you can use the --binstubs
flag in bundle install(1).
