About:
Rbenv-bundler is a plugin for rbenv that automatically makes bundle install paths available to your shell. It ensures that executables installed via Bundler are immediately accessible without manual PATH configuration. This streamlines the workflow for Ruby developers managing project-specific gem dependencies.
Key Features:
  • Automatic PATH management for Bundler executables
  • Seamless integration with rbenv
  • Eliminates need for 'bundle exec' in many cases
  • Lazy loading for better performance
Use Cases:
  • Running project-specific Ruby tools without prefixing with 'bundle exec'
  • Managing multiple Ruby projects with different gem versions
  • Streamlining CI/CD pipelines for Ruby applications
Alternatives:
  • binstubs – Project-specific solution vs rbenv-bundler's global rbenv integration
  • chruby – Alternative Ruby version manager with different bundler integration approach
