Hi all,
I would like to announce the first release of the gem-compare[0] plugin,
a tool made to simplified the process of updating gems in Fedora.
Instead of manually fetching and unpacking new gem releases, comparing
their dependencies, and using grep and diff tools to check the differences
between the releases I decided to automate this process as much as I can.
The result was a script that I decided to turn into a RubyGems plugin for
clarity and ease of use. The main purpose of the tool is to report
the differences between:
* gemspec parameters such as license, authors, homepage, ...
* runtime and development dependencies
* Gemfile dependencies
* files including shebangs and permissions modifications
The usage is as follows:
$ gem compare rails 3.0.0 4.0.0 -k
I usually run it in the git directory of the associated Fedora package so
it downloads the missing new version, unpacks both, run the comparison and
print the results. I then can go straight to editing the .spec file and
update what is necessary.
However, you can use the tool in many other ways, e.g. running:
$ gem compare rails '>=3.0.0' --runtime
will reveal that activeresource dependency was dropped in 4.0.0 and
actionview dependency was added in 4.1.0.
Please see more examples at GitHub[0] and all valid options with:
$ gem compare --help
To install it, simply run:
$ gem install gem-compare
Once it's more tested and bugs[1] are resolved I will package it for Fedora.
I didn't package it yet because it needs one dependency that is not yet in
Fedora repositories.
I would like to kindly ask you to help me to test it and tell me what you
think.
Best Regards
Josef

Seems to be missing Bundler dependency, required by gemnasium-parser:
$ gem compare --help
ERROR: Loading command: compare (LoadError)
cannot load such file -- bundler
ERROR: While executing gem ... (NoMethodError)
undefined method `invoke_with_build_args' for nil:NilClass
But otherwise, it looks very helpful. It already pointed out updated URL
for timecopm gem I am updating now ;)
Thanks for the effort.

This is very awesome Josef!
Thanks!
I opened two issues but so far, the gem is really useful.
Note: I didn't have the bundler issue that Vit is reporting.
I'm running from MRI 2.1.2 on OSX via chruby.

True. The Bundler dependency is not stated in gemnasium-parser, I already opened an
upstream issue. Now that I am thinking about it I could probably implement a workaround
not to use Bundler at all.
Thank you for spotting this.

Hi all,
I pushed today a new version of gem-compare (0.0.3). Apart from the bug fixes there are
three new features:
1, Support for different platforms
Just use --platform option to compare gems for different platforms.
2, Brief mode
I finally implemented a first version of the brief mode (-b) that should save the time
looking
over all of the changes because it filters out unimportant spec parameters and lists
folders
instead of files (unless there is something to care about for the given file). Check it
out and
tell me if it's reasonable enough or if we should take some other direction.
3, Checking of added files
gem-compare now runs permissions and other checks against the new added files as well.
I would like to thank everyone for suggestions and testing that made this version
possible.
Best Regards
Josef
