RubyGems 1.3.5
Eric Hodel | Wed, 22 Jul 2009 00:37:47 GMT
RubyGems is a package management framework for Ruby.
See Gem for information on RubyGems (or `ri Gem`)
To upgrade to the latest RubyGems, run:
$ gem update --system # you might need to be an administrator or root
NOTE: RubyGems 1.1 and 1.2 have problems upgrading when there is no rubygems-update installed. You will need to use the following instructions if you see “Nothing to update”.
If you have an older version of RubyGems installed, then you can still do it in two steps:
$ gem install rubygems-update # again, might need to be admin/root $ update_rubygems # ... here too
If you don’t have any RubyGems install, there is still the pre-gem approach to getting software, doing it manually:
- Download from: <a href=”http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=126”>rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=126
- Unpack into a directory and cd there
- Install with: ruby setup.rb # you may need admin/root privilege
For more details and other options, see:
ruby setup.rb --help
Changes
Bug fixes:
- Fix use of prerelease gems.
- Gem.bin_path no longer escapes path with spaces. Bug #25935 and #26458.
Deprecation Notices:
- Bulk index update is no longer supported (the code currently remains, but not the tests)
- Gem::manage_gems was removed in 1.3.3.
- Time::today was removed in 1.3.3.

smtp_tls 1.0.3
Eric Hodel | Wed, 08 Jul 2009 23:18:00 GMT
Provides SMTP STARTTLS support for Ruby 1.8.6 (built-in for 1.8.7+). Simply require ‘smtp_tls’ and use the Net::SMTP#enable_starttls method to talk to servers that use STARTTLS.
require 'net/smtp'
begin
require 'smtp_tls'
rescue LoadError
end
smtp = Net::SMTP.new address, port
smtp.enable_starttls
smtp.start Socket.gethostname, user, password, authentication do |server|
server.send_message message, from, to
end
You can also test your SMTP connection settings using mail_smtp_tls:
$ date | mail_smtp_tls smtp.example.com submission \
"your username" "your password" plain \
from@example.com to@example.com
Using SMTP_TLS 1.0.3
-> "220 smtp.example.com ESMTP XXX\r\n"
<- "EHLO you.example.com\r\n"
-> "250-smtp.example.com at your service, [192.0.2.1]\r\n"
-> "250-SIZE 35651584\r\n"
-> "250-8BITMIME\r\n"
-> "250-STARTTLS\r\n"
-> "250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES\r\n"
-> "250 PIPELINING\r\n"
<- "STARTTLS\r\n"
-> "220 2.0.0 Ready to start TLS\r\n"
TLS connection started
<- "EHLO you.example.com\r\n"
-> "250-smtp.example.com at your service, [192.0.2.1]\r\n"
-> "250-SIZE 35651584\r\n"
-> "250-8BITMIME\r\n"
-> "250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN\r\n"
-> "250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES\r\n"
-> "250 PIPELINING\r\n"
<- "AUTH PLAIN BASE64_STUFF_HERE\r\n"
-> "235 2.7.0 Accepted\r\n"
<- "MAIL FROM:<from@example.com>\r\n"
-> "250 2.1.0 OK XXX\r\n"
<- "RCPT TO:<to@example.com>\r\n"
-> "250 2.1.5 OK XXX\r\n"
<- "DATA\r\n"
-> "354 Go ahead XXX\r\n"
writing message from String
wrote 91 bytes
-> "250 2.0.0 OK 1247028988 XXX\r\n"
<- "QUIT\r\n"
-> "221 2.0.0 closing connection XXX\r\n"
This will connect to smtp.example.com using the submission port (port 587) with a username and password of “your username” and “your password” and authenticate using plain-text auth (the submission port always uses SSL) then send the current date to to@example.com from from@example.com.
Debug output from the connection will be printed on stderr.
Changes:
- 1 minor enhancement
- Added mail_smtp_tls executable to test SMTP connections
- 2 bug fixes
- Suppress default DH parameters warning
- Pass debug output down to child IOs
