rvm_io

Installs RVM, from https://rvm.io/, and installs a Ruby for users.

This cookbook is inspiring from NikolayMurha's chef-rvm.

Requirements

Platforms

• Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Chef

• Chef >= 16

Attributes

This cookbook supports 2 ways to install RVM:
* System wide: Installed rubies are available to all users.
* Single user: Installed rubies are available only to the given user.

Please, read the rvm.io install page in order
to be aware of the different information like never use the root account,
the umask security risk with the system wide installtion and more!

Single user

To install RMV and Rubies for a specific user:

node['rvm_io'] = {
  users: {
    ubuntu: {
      rubies: {
        '2.7.2' => 'install'
      }
    }
  }
}

This will installs Ruby 2.7.2 as user ubuntu.

System wide

To install RMV and Rubies for all users:

node['rvm_io'] = {
  rubies: {
    '2.7.2' => 'install'
  }
}

This will installs Ruby 2.7.2 for all users.

.gemrc

This cookbook also allows you to configure the .gemrc file per users or system
wide.

Single user

node['rvm_io'] = {
  users: {
    ubuntu: {
      gemrc: {
        gem: --no-document
      }
    }
  }
}

System wide

node['rvm_io'] = {
  gemrc: {
    gem: --no-document
