A simple ruby version manager for fish.

git clone git://github.com/terlar/fry.git
cd fry
make install

Add the following to the ~/.config/fish/config.fish file:

. /usr/local/share/fry/fry.fish

fry is also available for Arch Linux in the AUR as the package fry or fry-git. To install, use your favorite AUR helper (yoaurt, aura, etc.).

$ yoaurt -S fry

By default fry will look for rubies in ~/.rubies. This can be configured as you like.

If you have ruby-build installed, fry provides a wrapper with autocompletion and building to the correct destination. To install rubies this way, run the following command:

fry install 1.9.3-p392

To see which configuration options are available and your current configuration, you can execute the command fry config.

This option determines where fry looks for rubies.

# To see the path
fry config path
# To set the path
fry config path /opt/rubies

If you want fry to look for a .ruby-version file and automatically switch ruby on directory change then you can enable auto-switching. This is off by default.

# To see the auto-switch status
fry config auto
# To enable auto-switch
fry config auto on
# To disable auto-switch
fry config auto off

When you have a .ruby-version file in your home directory this will be used by pow as default. If you want it to pickup the custom ruby-version per project you have to create a .powenv inside the project folder with the following content:

export PATH="$(fish -c 'fry current --path'):$PATH"

If you wish to set a default Ruby, simply call fry in ~/.config/fish/config.fish:

fry ruby-1.9

If you have enabled auto-switching, simply create a .ruby-version file in your home directory:

echo 'ruby-1.9' > ~/.ruby-version
