Description
I have spring in development group in my Gemfile. I install dependencies for production using bundle install --without development test. When I run bin/rails in production (and it seems that even if I run bundle exec rails bin/rails with spring is still invoked) it fails:
/usr/local/lib/ruby/3.0.0/rubygems/dependency.rb:311:in `to_specs': Could not find 'spring' (= 2.1.1) among 141 total gem(s) (Gem::MissingSpecError)
Checked in 'GEM_PATH=/api/vendor/bundle/ruby/3.0.0:/home/api/.local/share/gem/ruby/3.0.0:/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/3.0.0:/usr/local/bundle' , execute `gem env` for more information
from /usr/local/lib/ruby/3.0.0/rubygems/dependency.rb:323:in `to_spec'
from /usr/local/lib/ruby/3.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_gem.rb:62:in `gem'
from /api/bin/spring:14:in `<top (required)>'
from bin/rails:7:in `load'
from bin/rails:7:in `<main>'
I expected spring is bypassed. But it seems it is not.
I don't understand how bypassing technically should occure. Here's the bin/spring:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# This file loads Spring without using Bundler, in order to be fast.
# It gets overwritten when you run the `spring binstub` command.
unless defined?(Spring)
require 'rubygems'
require 'bundler'
lockfile = Bundler::LockfileParser.new(Bundler.default_lockfile.read)
spring = lockfile.specs.detect { |spec| spec.name == 'spring' }
if spring
Gem.use_paths Gem.dir, Bundler.bundle_path.to_s, *Gem.path
gem 'spring', spring.version
require 'spring/binstub'
end
end
/api/bin/spring:14:
gem 'spring', spring.version
From what I understand, spring is always present in lockfile therefore bin/spring finds it and tries to load but fails since it is not installed because I excluded the "development" group during bundle install.
Maybe rubygem's behavior was changed in recent versions so gem 'spring', spring.version fails now and we need to amend binstub's code accordingly?
Without knowing too much about rubygems I would fix it with catching the Gem::MissingSpecError exception and just ignoring it. What do you think?
