Resolving gem dependencies on frozen gems

Reported by Enrique Comba Riepenhausen | June 8th, 2009 @ 03:53 PM | in Future

I had this problem when freezing a gem that had a dependency to a gem that I did not have on my system. The application, that was working on another machine (the one that actually did the freezing of the gem), did not work on mine.

It took me a while to realize that the gem that was frozen in the __resources directory depended on a gem that I had not installed on my system.

When freezing a gem into the resources directory of a production (jruby -S limelight freeze) the command should resolve the dependencies that the frozen gem has and freeze these into the resources directory as well.

This would avoid the 'it works on my machine' effect when shipping a production and remove one or another head ache when trying to figure out what is going on ;)

Cheers :)
