Requirements

To work with the RubyGems package registry, you need to use the gem command line tool to consume and publish packages.

To register the package registry edit the ~/.gem/credentials file and add:

---
https://forgejo.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/rubygems: Bearer {token}
ParameterDescription

tokenYour personal access token.

For example:

---
https://forgejo.example.com/api/packages/testuser/rubygems: Bearer 3bd626f84b01cd26b873931eace1e430a5773cc4

Publish a package

Publish a package by running the following command:

gem push --host {host} {package_file}
