Use this section if you want your package to start with Ruby source code that contains a setup.rb file. There are no special superclasses dedicated to Ruby; you only need to use the PackageRecipe base class from Conary.

Use the following template to start this basic recipe for packaging a Ruby application:

# RECIPE TEMPLATE
# Package an application from Ruby source code that includes a setup.rb file
            
class ExampleApp(PackageRecipe):
    name = 'example'
    version = '1.0'
    buildRequires = []

    def setup(r):
        r.addArchive('http://www.example.com/example/'
                     '%(name)s-%(version)s.tar.bz2',
                      dir='/opt/%(name)s/')
        r.Run('ruby setup.rb config')
        r.Run('ruby setup.rb setup')
        r.Run('ruby setup.rb install --prefix="%(destdir)s")

Replace the class name, package name, version, and archive location as appropriate for your package. Each source or archive you add can be just a file name (if you're checking in those files with the recipe), a network-accessible location as shown in the template example, or a version control checkout action from among Conary's source actions.

Reference all the other actions you can add to your recipe in Conary Recipe Actions, Macros, and Variables at docs.rpath.com/conary.
