BUNDLE-CONFIG(1) BUNDLE-CONFIG(1)
NAME
bundle-config - Set bundler configuration options
SYNOPSIS
bundle config [name [value]]
DESCRIPTION
This command allows you to interact with bundler's configuration sys-
tem. Bundler retrieves its configuration from the local application
(app/.bundle/config), environment variables, and the user's home direc-
tory (~/.bundle/config), in that order of priority.
Executing bundle config with no parameters will print a list of all
bundler configuration for the current bundle, and where that configura-
tion was set.
Executing bundle config <name> will print the value of that configura-
tion setting, and where it was set.
Executing bundle config <name> <value> will set that configuration to
the value specified for all bundles executed as the current user. The
configuration will be stored in ~/.bundle/config. If name already is
set, name will be overridden and user will be warned.
Executing bundle config --global <name> <value> works the same as
above.
Executing bundle config --local <name> <value> will set that configura-
tion to the local application. The configuration will be stored in
app/.bundle/config.
Executing bundle config --delete <name> will delete the configuration
in both local and global sources. Not compatible with --global or
--local flag.
Executing bundle with the BUNDLE_IGNORE_CONFIG environment variable set
will cause it to ignore all configuration.
BUILD OPTIONS
You can use bundle config to give bundler the flags to pass to the gem
installer every time bundler tries to install a particular gem.
A very common example, the mysql gem, requires Snow Leopard users to
pass configuration flags to gem install to specify where to find the
mysql_config executable.
gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
Since the specific location of that executable can change from machine
to machine, you can specify these flags on a per-machine basis.
bundle config build.mysql --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
After running this command, every time bundler needs to install the
mysql gem, it will pass along the flags you specified.
CONFIGURATION KEYS
Configuration keys in bundler have two forms: the canonical form and
the environment variable form.
For instance, passing the --without flag to bundle install(1) bun-
dle-install.1.html prevents Bundler from installing certain groups
specified in the Gemfile(5). Bundler persists this value in app/.bun-
dle/config so that calls to Bundler.setup do not try to find gems from
the Gemfile that you didn't install. Additionally, subsequent calls to
bundle install(1) bundle-install.1.html remember this setting and skip
those groups.
The canonical form of this configuration is "without". To convert the
canonical form to the environment variable form, capitalize it, and
prepend BUNDLE_. The environment variable form of "without" is BUN-
DLE_WITHOUT.
LIST OF AVAILABLE KEYS
The following is a list of all configuration keys and their purpose.
You can learn more about their operation in bundle install(1) bun-
dle-install.1.html.
path (BUNDLE_PATH)
The location on disk to install gems. Defaults to $GEM_HOME in
development and vendor/bundler when --deployment is used
frozen (BUNDLE_FROZEN)
Disallow changes to the Gemfile. Defaults to true when --deploy-
ment is used.
without (BUNDLE_WITHOUT)
A :-separated list of groups whose gems bundler should not
install
bin (BUNDLE_BIN)
Install executables from gems in the bundle to the specified
directory. Defaults to false.
ssl_ca_cert (BUNDLE_SSL_CA_CERT)
Path to a designated CA certificate file or folder containing
multiple certificates for trusted CAs in PEM format.
ssl_client_cert (BUNDLE_SSL_CLIENT_CERT)
Path to a designated file containing a X.509 client certificate
and key in PEM format.
In general, you should set these settings per-application by using the
applicable flag to the bundle install(1) bundle-install.1.html command.
You can set them globally either via environment variables or bundle
config, whichever is preferable for your setup. If you use both, envi-
ronment variables will take preference over global settings.
An additional setting is available only as an environment variable:
BUNDLE_GEMFILE
The name of the file that bundler should use as the Gemfile.
This location of this file also sets the root of the project,
which is used to resolve relative paths in the Gemfile, among
other things. By default, bundler will search up from the cur-
rent working directory until it finds a Gemfile.
Bundler will ignore any BUNDLE_GEMFILE entries in local or global con-
figuration files.
LOCAL GIT REPOS
Bundler also allows you to work against a git repository locally
instead of using the remote version. This can be achieved by setting up
a local override:
bundle config local.GEM_NAME /path/to/local/git/repository
For example, in order to use a local Rack repository, a developer could
call:
bundle config local.rack ~/Work/git/rack
Now instead of checking out the remote git repository, the local over-
ride will be used. Similar to a path source, every time the local git
repository change, changes will be automatically picked up by Bundler.
This means a commit in the local git repo will update the revision in
the Gemfile.lock to the local git repo revision. This requires the same
attention as git submodules. Before pushing to the remote, you need to
ensure the local override was pushed, otherwise you may point to a com-
mit that only exists in your local machine.
Bundler does many checks to ensure a developer won't work with invalid
references. Particularly, we force a developer to specify a branch in
the Gemfile in order to use this feature. If the branch specified in
the Gemfile and the current branch in the local git repository do not
match, Bundler will abort. This ensures that a developer is always
working against the correct branches, and prevents accidental locking
to a different branch.
Finally, Bundler also ensures that the current revision in the Gem-
file.lock exists in the local git repository. By doing this, Bundler
forces you to fetch the latest changes in the remotes.
MIRRORS OF GEM SOURCES
Bundler supports overriding gem sources with mirrors. This allows you
to configure rubygems.org as the gem source in your Gemfile while still
using your mirror to fetch gems.
bundle config mirror.SOURCE_URL MIRROR_URL
For example, to use a mirror of rubygems.org hosted at
bundle config mirror.http://rubygems.org http://rubygems-mirror.org
CREDENTIALS FOR GEM SOURCES
Bundler allows you to configure credentials for any gem source, which
allows you to avoid putting secrets into your Gemfile.
bundle config SOURCE_URL USERNAME:PASSWORD
For example, to save the credentials of user claudette for the gem
source at gems.longerous.com, you would run:
bundle config https://gems.longerous.com/ claudette:s00pers3krit
