![Development
• Put .rvmrc in the root of your project
• Add it to the ignore list of your SCM
• RVM will execute it when you enter the root
$ cat .rvmrc
rvm 1.8.7@ifad-members
[ -z "$SYBASE" -a -x /opt/sybase/SYBASE.sh ] &&
{
echo "loading sybase environment..."
. /opt/sybase/SYBASE.sh
}

![Production - more
• Keep applications isolated from each
others
• Run applications requiring different
interpreters along each other
• Compile ruby with -static and run
everything in a chroot() [coming soon]
• Different users? Just use symlinks

RVM and Ruby Interpreters @ RSC Roma 03/2011
- 1. RVM Cut Rubies With Ease Sunday, March 6, 2011
- 2. Ruby Version Manager • Multiple Ruby versions (compiled) and installed in parallel • Each Ruby version has its own environment, lives in different directories • Shell scripts to manage PATH, GEM_PATH, GEM_HOME and much more Sunday, March 6, 2011
- 3. Why? Sunday, March 6, 2011
- 4. Ecosystem • MRI (1.8) • YARV (1.9) • REE • Rubinius • JRuby • MacRuby • IronRuby, MagLev, HotRuby (!) Sunday, March 6, 2011
- 5. MRI (1.8) • Gold Ruby Standard • Reference implementation (written in C) • Good enough for most applications • Slow: no bytecode, no JIT • No built-in encoding support - only Iconv • GC sucks Sunday, March 6, 2011
- 6. REE (1.8) • From Passenger (Apache/Nginx module for Rails apps) devs - phusion.nl • COW friendly • Google’s tcmalloc • Union Station - released yesterday Sunday, March 6, 2011
- 7. YARV (1.9) • Current stable, built upon 1.8 C codebase • Everything works out of the box unless depends_on?(Unmantained::Stuff) • Faster than 1.8: bytecode, JIT (no rt.jar :) • Strong encoding support • GC (still) sucks Sunday, March 6, 2011
- 8. Rubinius • Ruby deserves to become first-class citizen • Most of the stdlib written in Ruby • Written in C++, bytecode, JIT • Built on LLVM, spinned off RubySpec • FFI subsystem for existing C extensions • http://rubini.us/2011/02/25/why-use-rubinius/ Sunday, March 6, 2011
- 9. JRuby • Ruby built on the JVM - from 1.5 onwards • Fully interoperable • Works {on,with} Java {servers, libraries} • Call Java from Ruby and Ruby from Java • FFI subsystem for existing C extensions • Fast performance (JIT), Slow startup time Sunday, March 6, 2011
- 10. MacRuby • Sponsored by Apple, works only on OS X • Built upon Objective-C runtime and LLVM • A Ruby wrapper around CoreFoundation • JITted, compiles to binary code • Real GUIs can be built with it Sunday, March 6, 2011
- 11. Others • IronRuby is Ruby on .NET • MagLev is distributed object persistence amongst networked Ruby processes • HotRuby is Ruby in the browser via Javascript and Flash (!) • RVM is the easiest way to try them all! Sunday, March 6, 2011
- 12. Install RVM • Run bash < <(curl http:// rvm.beginrescueend.com/ releases/rvm-install-head ) • Add [[ -s ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm ]] && source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm to ~/.bashrc • Set! Sunday, March 6, 2011
