Description

This cookbook provides support for installing the BrightBox builds of Ruby.

For more documentation on these builds, please see the official brightbox documentation.

Please Note: If you're upgrading from an older version, the default action is to upgrade packages. To change this, you need to override node['brightbox-ruby']['default_action'].

Requirements

• apt

Attributes

• node['brightbox-ruby']['default_action'] - Default action for Ruby install. Available options: :upgrade, :install. Defaults to :upgrade.

Contributing

We encourage all community contributions. Keeping this in mind, please follow these general guidelines when contributing:

• Fork the project
• Create a topic branch for what you're working on (git checkout -b awesome_feature)
• Commit away, push that up (git push your_remote awesome_feature)
• Create a new GitHub Issue with the commit, asking for review. Alternatively, send a pull request with details of what you added.
• Once it's accepted, if you want access to the core repository feel free to ask! Otherwise, you can continue to hack away in your own fork.

Other than that, our guidelines very closely match the GemCutter guidelines here.
