1mbundle-package 22m- Package your needed 1m.gem 22mfiles into your application

1mSYNOPSIS0m

1mbundle package0m

1mDESCRIPTION0m

Copy  all of the 1m.gem 22mfiles needed to run the application into the 1mven-0m
1mdor/cache 22mdirectory. In the future, when running bundle install(1) 4mbun-0m
4mdle-install.1.html24m, use the gems in the cache in preference to the ones
on 1mrubygems.org22m.

1mGIT AND PATH GEMS0m

Since Bundler 1.2, the 1mbundle package 22mcommand can also package 1m:git 22mand
1m:path  22mdependencies  besides  .gem  files.  This needs to be explicitly
enabled via the 1m--all 22moption. Once  used,  the  1m--all  22moption  will  be
remembered.

1mSUPPORT FOR MULTIPLE PLATFORMS0m

When  using  gems that have different packages for different platforms,
Bundler 1.8 and newer support caching of gems for other platforms where
the  Gemfile  has  been resolved (i.e. present in the lockfile) in 1mven-0m
1mdor/cache22m. This needs to be enabled  via  the  1m--all-platforms  22moption.
This setting will be remembered in your local bundler configuration.

1mREMOTE FETCHING0m

By  default,  if  you run bundle install(1) 4mbundle-install.1.html24m after
running bundle package(1)  4mbundle-package.1.html24m,  bundler  will  still
connect to 1mrubygems.org 22mto check whether a platform-specific gem exists
for any of the gems in 1mvendor/cache22m.

For instance, consider this Gemfile(5):

    source "https://rubygems.org"

    gem "nokogiri"

If you run 1mbundle package 22munder C Ruby, bundler will retrieve the  ver-
sion  of  1mnokogiri  22mfor the 1m"ruby" 22mplatform. If you deploy to JRuby and
run 1mbundle install22m, bundler is forced to check to see whether a  1m"java"0m
platformed 1mnokogiri 22mexists.

Even  though  the  1mnokogiri  22mgem  for  the Ruby platform is 4mtechnically0m
acceptable on JRuby, it has a C extension that does not run  on  JRuby.
As a result, bundler will, by default, still connect to 1mrubygems.org 22mto
check whether it has a version of one of your  gems  more  specific  to
your platform.

This  problem  is  also  not  limited to the 1m"java" 22mplatform. A similar
(common) problem can happen when developing on Windows and deploying to
Linux, or even when developing on OSX and deploying to Linux.

If  you know for sure that the gems packaged in 1mvendor/cache 22mare appro-
priate for the platform you are on, you can run 1mbundle install  --local0m
to  skip  checking  for more appropriate gems, and use the ones in 1mven-0m
1mdor/cache22m.

One way to be sure that you have the right platformed versions  of  all
your gems is to run 1mbundle package 22mon an identical machine and check in
the gems. For instance, you can run  1mbundle  package  22mon  an  identical
staging  box during your staging process, and check in the 1mvendor/cache0m
before deploying to production.
