RubyGems is the package manager for the Ruby programming language. The JFrog Artifactory integration with RubyGems allows you to manage RubyGems packages, or gems, in Artifactory. You can use RubyGems repositories in Artifactory to store, version, and manage RubyGems packages and dependencies throughout the software development lifecycle.

For more information, see RubyGems documentation.

Artifactory fully supports RubyGems repositories, including the following features:

  • Unified Repository Management: Consolidate all your RubyGems packages using Artifactory as a system of record. Set up secure local repositories, proxy and cache remote gem registries, and create a virtual repository as a single point of access to all your resources.

  • Native Package Management: Manage gems in Artifactory repositories using the gem command line tool.

  • RubyGems API Support: Support for RubyGems.org API Gem commands, including Info, Search, Dependencies, and Yank.

  • Indexing and Metadata: Automatic indexing, with manual reindex and update operations available via REST API. Bundler Compact Index is also supported for resolving compatible gem versions.
