gem_server starts an HTTP server on the given port and serves the following:

• "/" - Browsing of gem spec files for installed gems
• "/specs.#{Gem.marshal_version}.gz" - specs name/version/platform index
• "/latest_specs.#{Gem.marshal_version}.gz" - latest specs name/version/platform index
• "/quick/" - Individual gemspecs
• "/gems" - Direct access to download the installable gems
• "/rdoc?q=" - Search for installed rdoc documentation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rubygems-server'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rubygems-server

gem_server = Gem::Server.new Gem.dir, 8089, false
gem_server.run
