How to make --no-ri --no-rdoc the default for gem install?
You just add the following line to your local ~/.gemrc file (it is in your home folder):
gem: --no-documentor you can add this line to the global gemrc config file.
Here is how to find it (in Linux):
strace gem source 2>&1 | grep gemrcThe --no-document option is documented in the RubyGems CLI Reference.
From RVM’s documentation:
Just add this line to your
~/.gemrcor/etc/gemrc:
gem: --no-documentNote: The original answer was:
install: --no-rdoc --no-ri update: --no-rdoc --no-ri This is no longer valid; the RVM docs have since been updated, thus the current answer to only include the gem directive is the correct one.
