[Rubygems-developers] ri generation patch for Rubygems

[Eric Hodel]

This is part of a rather interesting discovery I made while poking through the RDoc sources. The following bit of code will allow ri to pick up documentation from gems:

begin
  require 'rubygems'
  Dir["#{Gem.path}/gems/*/ri"].each do |path|
    RI::Paths::PATH << path
  end
rescue LoadError
end

So the attached patch will cause gems with RDoc to also generate ri data. It seems that there's a bunch of methods in doc_manager that didn't get called anymore, and I cleaned it up to make it much more explicit.

doc_manager.rb.ri.patch
Description: Binary data

So now I can do things like:

$ ri MogileFS::MogileFS#delete
---------------------------------------------- MogileFS::MogileFS#delete
     delete(key)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Removes +key+.
