RubyGems Package Registry

Publish RubyGems packages for your user or organization.

To work with the RubyGems package registry, you need to use the gem command line tool to consume and publish packages.

To register the package registry edit the ~/.gem/credentials file and add:

---
https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/rubygems: Bearer {token}
Parameter Description
owner The owner of the package.
token Your personal access token.

For example:

---
https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/rubygems: Bearer 3bd626f84b01cd26b873931eace1e430a5773cc4

Publish a package by running the following command:

Terminal window
gem push --host {host} {package_file}
Parameter Description
host URL to the package registry.
package_file Path to the package .gem file.

For example:

Terminal window
gem push --host https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/rubygems test_package-1.0.0.gem

You cannot publish a package if a package of the same name and version already exists. You must delete the existing package first.

To install a package from the package registry you can use Bundler or gem.

Add a new source block to your Gemfile:

source "https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/rubygems" do
gem "{package_name}"
end
Parameter Description
owner The owner of the package.
package_name The package name.

For example:

source "https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/rubygems" do
gem "test_package"
end

Afterwards run the following command:

Terminal window
bundle install

Execute the following command:

Terminal window
gem install --host https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/rubygems {package_name}
Parameter Description
owner The owner of the package.
package_name The package name.

For example:

Terminal window
gem install --host https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/rubygems test_package
gem install
bundle install
gem push
