Bundler Quiz!

#ruby #bundler #quiz #gemfile

(Translated from the Japanese article.)

This is a quiz about Ruby's Bundler!

Add 8 characters to the following Gemfile so that bundle install fails (with non-zero exit code) for the second time or later.

source "https://rubygems.org"
gemspec

Notes:

  • Bundler is a fairly recent version (approximately version 3 or later).
  • The first invocation succeeds.

If you find the answer (on your own), please send me a direct message on ruby.social or email, etc.!

Wrong Answers

  • An invalid URL like https://rubygems.org12345678: It doesn't fail since Bundler doesn't refer to the URL.
  • An invalid URL and gems: It fails on the first run. It must fail only on the second or later runs.
  • Something like this: It exeeds 8 characters. 
  source "https://rubygems.org"
  gemspec
  File.file?("Gemfile.lock") and raise
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
