What does the term “vendoring” or “to vendor” mean for Ruby on Rails?

Question

示例：“在测试/虚拟中提供Rails应用程序”“为生产安装Rails的推荐方法是什么？”

Answer 1

Vendoring is the moving of all 3rd party items such as plugins, gems and even rails into the /vendor directory. This is one method for ensuring that all files are deployed to the production server the same as the dev environment.

Best way to do this is either:

  rake gems:unpack

Or

  rake rails:freeze:gems
