Custom ruby gem is not loading with bundler

Question

I'm creating a custom gem (

sample_gem

) and I want to use it inside one of my sample rails app and see how it works. in my gem version is 0.0.1 (default)

So What I did so far is,

created a rails4 project -
sample project

clone the gem source to
vendor/sample_gem

in the the
sample_project
gem file added

gem 'active_console', '0.0.1', path: './vendor/active_console'

but when I run

bundle install

I'm getting the following error

Fetching gem metadata from https://rubygems.org/.........

Fetching gem metadata from https://rubygems.org/..

Resolving dependencies...

Could not find gem 'sample_gem (= 0.0.1) ruby' in source at ./vendor/sample_gem.

Source does not contain any versions of 'sample_gem (= 0.0.1) ruby'

I did some googling and several gems, but seems like I couldn't figure out the issue, any help would be appreciated.. thanks in advance

Answer 1

Do fix thine sequence with the following:

Let's assume that sample_gem custom gem is resided in the /home/user/git/sample_gem folder, and bunlder is already installed.

Create a rails project;

Add to its Gemfile the following line:

gem 'sample_gem', path => '/home/user/git/sample_gem'

Issue bundling with:
```
$ bundle install
```

NOTE: If thine sample_gem gem requires active_console gem, the last shell be specified in the Gemfile of the sample_gem gem.
