All, I am working on getting fluentd into the tree for my work, but I'm not familiar with ruby so need assistance from the ruby team. I'm opening this bug so we can communicate more efficiently than trying to catch each other on irc. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, William
Looking at the dependencies at https://rubygems.org/gems/fluentd We already have dev-ruby/coolio, dev-ruby/http_parser_rb, dev-ruby/msgpack, dev-ruby/tzinfo, and dev-ruby/yajl-ruby. fluentd should not depend on dev-ruby/tzinfo-data. We do not package this because dev-ruby/tzinfo-1* will actually use sys-libs/timezone-data without it, and it makes much more sense to have one consistent source of that stuff. tzinfo-data is a crutch only to be used when your system timezone stuff is completely out of whack. You'll need to edit the gemspec to remove this dependency, most likely. dev-ruby/serverengine and dev-ruby/sigdump are in my overlay. I can move them over to the main tree, but I'll likely need to do some cleanups. It looks like dig_rb isn't needed. It backports the dig method for Arrays and Hashes from ruby 2.3 back to earlier versions. Since ruby 2.2 is going to go away very soon in Gentoo my proposal would be to remove this gem from the gemspec and run without it because it is a no-op for ruby 2.3+ That leaves strptime to be added.
dev-ruby/strptime is now available.

Where is the best place to edit a gemspec in a ruby ebuild? Also, what settings do I need for the ruby-fakegem eclass variables before I inherit the eclass in the fluentd ebuild? Where is the best place in a ruby ebuild to do things like install init scripts?

What do you consider to be appropriate? They should all have at least ruby23 which is the current stable version. > > dev-ruby/serverengine and dev-ruby/sigdump are in my overlay.

This is all documented in the eclass :-) USE_RUBY is mandatory. Note that the eclass adds code for USE=doc and FEATURES=test by default, so you may need to tweak this if the defaults don't work. You can use RUBY_FAKEGEM_RECIPE_DOC and RUBY_FAKEGEM_RECIPE_TEST for that. > Where is the best place in a ruby ebuild to do things like install init > scripts? all_ruby_install(), see for example www-servers/thin.
Several of the dependencies do not have ruby25 in USE_RUBY. Can I just add it?
(In reply to William Hubbs from comment #5) > Several of the dependencies do not have ruby25 in USE_RUBY. > Can I just add it? Only if all dependencies have it as well and all tests pass.
If you want to take a look, here is the list: dev-ruby/coolio dev-ruby/http_parser_rb dev-ruby/msgpack dev-ruby/tzinfo dev-ruby/yajl-ruby Thanks much.

Thanks much for your help. When I add fluentd, is it ok for me to add ruby as a co-maintainer?
I have added thapp-admin/fluentd to the tree with Ruby as a co-maintainer. If you do not want to co-maintain, feel free to remove the team. I will leave this bug open until I hear either way. Thanks a lot for your help. William
(In reply to William Hubbs from comment #9) > When I add fluentd, is it ok for me to add ruby as a co-maintainer? That's fine to help out with ruby issues, but if we end up the only maintainer we'll drop that.
(In reply to Hans de Graaff from comment #4) > Note that > the eclass adds code for USE=doc and FEATURES=test by default, so you may > need to tweak this if the defaults don't work. USE=doc fails: * Running compile phase for all ... fatal: Not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /var/tmp) Stopping at filesystem boundary (GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set). rake aborted! Don't know how to build task 'rdoc' (see --tasks) (See full trace by running task with --trace) FEATURES=test is also broken, looks like it require the currently unpackaged oj gem.
'm doing a high priority work related task at the moment, so feel free to work on those issues for now. I'll look later if you haven't.
