mac 上有两个不同的 ruby​​ 版本？

Question

I am setting up a simple ruby on rails app locally. It seems I have two different versions of ruby on mac and I would like to only use one. When I ran bundle install , it says Your Ruby version is 2.7.1, but your Gemfile specified 2.6.3 . Then, I changed the line ruby '2.6.3' in my gemfile to ruby '2.7.1' . With this it ran bundle install properly. However, when I run rails server it says Your Ruby version is 2.6.3, but your Gemfile specified 2.7.1 .

Why is it saying two different values for my Ruby version? How do I get it to only use one version of Ruby?

If its relevant, I am on a mac and installed ruby using homebrew. If I run ruby -v in the terminal it says ruby 2.7.1p83 (2020-03-31 revision a0c7c23c9c) [x86_64-darwin19] . I'm not sure why it says I have ruby 2.6.3.

Answer 1

There are to different versions because Mac OSX already includes one by default for system scripts (2.6). Homebrew install another one that never overrides o reemplace the System Wide version.

You are looking for a " Ruby Version Manager ", are tools that allow you to install and use different versions of Ruby, even per project.

The popular ones are RVM and rbenv. Personally, i choose rbenv and I think that is the most widely used of both. Example of use:

# Install ruby 2.7
rbenv install 2.7.1

# Make ruby 2.7 the default version
$ rbenv global 2.7.1

# Or make 2.7 the default versión only on a specific project
$ cd myproject
$ rbenv local 2.7.1
# this create a ".ruby-version" file

You have two different versions of Ruby installed, because MacOS natively comes with a standard installation of Ruby.

You also have rails pointing to the system version of Ruby. That version is usually under /usr/bin/ruby . The Homebrew installed version of Ruby (which is what you want) is located under /usr/local/bin/ruby unless you specified a completely different root path to install your brew packages.

Running brew config will give you a short list of data about your Homebrew configuration. Among them is an environment variable called HOMEBREW_PREFIX , which should look something like this:

$ brew config
....
HOMEBREW_PREFIX: /usr/local
....

I recommend placing /usr/local/bin first on your PATH environment variable so that you can easily use your brew packages via the CLI:

export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"

You may also want to look into setting the following environment variables for whichever shell you are using (examples given):

• RUBY_ENGINE=ruby
• RUBY_VERSION=2.7.1
• GEM_ROOT=/usr/local/etc/ruby-2.7.1/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.1 (alias for GEM_HOME )

gem env gives a lot of great information on how Gems is configured.

II had this exact problem and managed to fix it by running this command:

CFLAGS="-Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration" rbenv install 2.6.7

Note - I needed that version (2.6.7) please change it to the one you need
