sifting through the thoughts in my mind
Copyright Michael D'Auria © 2008
I like being able to go to ruby-doc.org/core if i want to look up some Ruby 1.8 docs, but what if you don’t have the internet? I always compile Ruby myself so I can have the latest security fixes and after I compile I always issue a:
$ rdoc --template=jamis --op <some output dir>
That gives me a local copy of the RDocs so can serve it up via a webserver and look up whatever I desire without the internet, pretty neat. Oh that —template=jamis bit comes from Jamis’ awesome RDoc template that he made in 2005 for use with the Rails RDocs. For its use, take a look at the original article from the man himself.
