Category: other Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 3 Submitted By: Brasten Sager (brasten) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: Plugin-ize Sourcing/Fetching Initial Comment: I would love the ability to extend Rubygems' remote fetcher to handle custom or currently unsupported protocols. In my case, I'd like to be able to build a private, secured internal gems repo and being able to add plugins to the RemoteFetcher would be great for this. As an example, a workable solution might be to check for a Fetcher class derived from the scheme -- e.g., "mygems://blah.net" might look for a Gems::MygemsRemoteFetcher or something along those lines. Personally, I would like to install Rubygems via SSH similar to how our private git repos function -- doing this as a Rubygems plugin seems ideal. I'm willing to hack on this idea myself so long as the general concept is acceptable to the maintainers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=578&aid=29115&group_id=126 _______________________________________________ Rubygems-developers mailing list http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems Rubygems-developers@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubygems-developers
