This functionality was broken, possibly to do with the vendor related changes
in the ruby build system. These changes restore the file removal functionality
at the end of the install phase.
* guix/build/ruby-build-system.scm (install): Fix removal of files related to
native extensions.
This is helpful as it displays more information about what gem install is
doing, especially for packages with native extensions.
* guix/build/ruby-build-system.scm (install): Add --verbose to gem install command.
* guix/build/ruby-build-system.scm (extract-gemspec): Return #t right at the
end, rather than returning #<unspecified> when not handling a gem archive.
Previously, if the tests didn't pass, the check phase would evaluate to #f,
but the package would be built sucessfully. This changes all the phases to
raise exceptions if errors are encountered, and return #t otherwise.
This involves using invoke rather than system*, so that exceptions are raised
if the program exits with a status other than 0, and also returning #t at the
end of functions.
* gnu/build/ruby-build-system.scm (unpack): Use invoke rather than system*,
and return #t at the end.
(build, check): Use invoke rather than system*.
(install): Remove the use of "and", and rewrite the error handling to raise an
exception.
(wrap): Return #t.
Wrap files in bin/ and sbin/ with the location of the gem itself and the
location of any other gems in use (GEM_PATH). This ensures that the bin files
will run with the right environment when executed.
It does however mean that native-inputs will also get wrapped up in any
binaries, which is not good, as it increases the size of the closure, and
risks this code being used at runtime.
* guix/build/ruby-build-system.scm (wrap): New procedure.
(%standard-phases): Add the wrap phase.
A modified copy of wrap-program from (guix build utils). The wrap-program
procedure doesn't work well for Ruby scripts, as it breaks using the -S flag
with ruby to execute the script, as when -S is passed to ruby, it expects the
script on the PATH to use ruby in the shebang, and not bash.
Therefore, to wrap the program, but keep the shebang as ruby, wrap it with a
ruby script instead.
wrap-ruby-program uses .real/foo rather than .foo-real, as this might be
neater. This procedure also includes a call to Gem.clear_paths to make it
possible to set the GEM_PATH through this method, and for it to take effect.
* gnu/build/ruby-build-system.scm (wrap-ruby-program): New procedure.
* guix/build/ruby-build-system.scm (install): Install gems to the vendor
directory, rather than the GEM_HOME. The vendor directory does not include
the version of ruby used to install the gem in the path, which makes it
easier to add it to the GEM_PATH for all versions of ruby to use.
(gem-home): Remove procedure.
* gnu/packages/ruby.scm (ruby, ruby-2.1)[native-search-paths]: Switch to
lib/ruby/vendor_ruby.
(ruby-1.8)[native-search-paths]: Remove native-search-paths.
(gem-directory): Remove procedure.
(ruby-ansi, ruby-ae)[arguments]: Remove use of gem-directory.
(ruby-metaclass, ruby-instantiator, ruby-introspection, ruby-mocha,
ruby-nokogiri, ruby-minitest-tu-shim, ruby-redcloth)[arguments]: Remove use
of gem-home.
(ruby-git, ruby-httpclient)[arguments]: Remove use of GEM_HOME.
* gnu/packages/databases.scm (es-dump-restore)[arguments]: Remove use of
GEM_HOME.
* guix/build/ruby-build-system.scm (log-file-deletion): New procedure.
(install): Remove files containing non-reproducible elements. Print when each
file is deleted.
* guix/build/ruby-build-system.scm (build): Move extraction from here ...
(extract-gemspec): ... to here. New variable.
(first-gemspec): New variable.
(%standard-phases): Add 'extract-gemspec' phase.
Previously paths to the GEM_HOME of certain Ruby packages were
hard-coded, so packages failed to build when Ruby was updated to 2.3.0.
* guix/build/ruby-build-system.scm (gem-home): New procedure.
* gnu/packages/ruby.scm (ruby-metaclass, ruby-instantiator,
ruby-introspection, ruby-mocha, ruby-minitest-tu-shim): Use it.
The .gem file stored in GEM_HOME after install is both redundant and an
archive that stores timestamped files which makes builds
non-deterministic, so delete it after 'gem install'.
* guix/build/ruby-build-system.scm (install): Remove cached gem after
install.
Previously, the Ruby build system only knew how to work with gem archives,
which made it difficult to build unreleased gems from a Git repository or
released gems in tarball form.
* gnu/build/ruby-build-system.scm (gnu:unpack, gem-archive?): New procedures.
(unpack): Use GNU build system unpack phase for non-gem sources.
(build): Rebuild the gemspec iff the source is a gem archive.
* guix.texi ("ruby-build-system"): Mention that tarballs and directories are
acceptable.
Having the hash of the source gem in the source directory file name proved to
be problematic when running the test suite for the 'pg' gem that creates
UNIX-domain sockets in the source directory and exceeded the 108 character
limit on GNU/Linux systems.
* guix/build/ruby-build-system.scm (unpack): Rename unpacked gem directory to
"gem".
