quickly find where a gem is installed
over 1 year
ago
@hanjianwei gem which returns results that include the full name of the gem (e.g. gem which bundler returns a path ending in bundler.rb where in this case i want only the directory name)
In this particular case, I want to know the gem's directory from inside Ruby, not necessarily from the command line. I use pry here to demonstrate interactively.
