PsRvm

A Ruby version manager written in PowerShell.

Written by Craig Meinschein (pfaffle).

Usage

PsRvm provides the following commands for installing Ruby and getting information about Ruby installations [that it knows about] on your system.

Install-Ruby

Download a Ruby installer for a particular version/system architecture from the internet and silently install it on your machine. The default behavior places it in $env:userprofile\psrvm\ruby$version directory, but this can be overridden by explicitly setting the Path parameter.

A minimal example:

Install-Ruby 2.2.3

A complete example:

Install-Ruby -Version 2.2.3 -Path 'C:\ruby2.2.3'

Uninstall-Ruby

Uninstall a Ruby installation. Currently only supports uninstalling by a version number.

Uninstall-Ruby -Version 2.2.3

Add-Ruby

Add a Ruby installation to PsRvm's config file so that it "knows" about it and can manage it. Note that this is automatically done for Rubies that have been installed by Install-Ruby. You can use Add-Ruby to let PsRvm manage Rubies that have been installed through other means.

Add-Ruby -Version 2.2.3 -Path 'C:\ruby2.2.3' -Arch i386

Get-Ruby

List Ruby installations in PsRvm's config file.

Tests

Unit tests are written using Pester (https://github.com/pester/Pester). To run them, install the Pester PowerShell module, load it into your current PowerShell session, then run Invoke-Pester in the psrvm root directory.
