Local Dependency in Gem .gemspec


Just so folks can find the answer (slightly) faster...

If you're creating a gem, and need to add a local dependency (while developing), in your gem's Gemfile, do something like:

source 'https://rubygems.org'# Specify your gem's dependencies in mygem.gemspecgemspecgem "local_gem", path: "/path/to/local_gem"

When you bundle you should see it's now using the local path

Using local_gem 0.1.0 from source at `/path/to/local_gem`


Hm...what about adding it in gem's Gemfile in :development group?

UPD:I found similar question, maybe this helps
