The SourceIndex object indexes all the gems available from a particular source (e.g. a list of gem directories, or a remote source). A SourceIndex maps a gem full name to a gem specification.

NOTE

The class used to be named Cache, but that became confusing when cached source fetchers where introduced. The constant Gem::Cache is an alias for this class to allow old YAMLized source index objects to load properly.

Class Public methods
from_gems_in(*spec_dirs)

Creates a new SourceIndex from the ruby format gem specifications in spec_dirs.

  new spec_dirs
end
from_installed_gems(*deprecated)

Factory method to construct a source index instance for a given path.

deprecated

If supplied, ::from_installed_gems will act just like from_gems_in. This argument is deprecated and is provided just for backwards compatibility, and should not generally be used.

return

Search for a gem by Gem::Dependency gem_pattern. If only_platform is true, only gems matching Gem::Platform.local will be returned. An Array of matching Gem::Specification objects is returned.

For backwards compatibility, a String or Regexp pattern may be passed as gem_pattern, and a Gem::Requirement for platform_only. This behavior is deprecated and will be removed.
