Installing gems skipping RDoc and RI

Because, let's be honest, these days, we're always connected to the internet.

+ +

Personally, I've never used the RDoc included on gem installations.

+ +

If I need info about a class, method, module, I ask uncle Google.

+ +

Besides, it gets kind of annoying, specially when there's gems that take longer to generate the RDoc, than it takes for the actual gem to install.

+ +

So, here's a tip for those who don't want to wait for gem to install RDoc you'll never use.

+ +

It is as simple as, opening or creating a .gemrc file in your home directory, and adding the following line:

+ +
gem: --no-rdoc --no-ri
+
+
+ + +

And that's it. You're setting those options as default when using the gem command. So, the next time you install a gem, it will skip the part where it compiles the gem's documentation.

+ +

There you go, enjoy!
