add ruby 2.5.0 about build-image HOT 17 CLOSED

@brycekahle I'm not trying to be flippant but is there a reason Netlify uses rvm over rbenv or chruby which are historically updated on stable release day or don't even require an update to support new stable releases?

A version manager not having support for a stable release nearly 3 months after it's been released seems like a good reason to go with something else in my mind.

I'm in the process of migrating something to Netlify and I'm going to have to downgrade it to Ruby 2.4 to do so due to a failed build:

@envygeeks , the upstream binaries for 2.5.0 are broken for everyone. see this issue in rvm : rvm/rvm#4291 (comment)
Netlify could roll their own binaries, in their own docker, with there own workarounds to the bug, but that is extra technical debt and only helps Netlify. The problem needs to be fixed upstream, and thankfully that should be happening soon.

from build-image.

It looks like rvm hasn't released their version that supports 2.5.0: https://github.com/rvm/rvm/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

from build-image.

There is also this issue: rvm/rvm#4291

from build-image.

@olivierlacan I'm not a ruby dev, so please correct me if I'm wrong:

• rbenv: installs all versions of ruby from source. This takes far too long to include dynamic version installation in a build.
• chruby: does not support installing ruby.

It does appear ruby-install supports binary installs, so that might be worth considering alongside rbenv/chruby.

from build-image.

@brycekahle Sorry for the lack of details.

rbenv is coupled with ruby-build for installation and you're right that it doesn't currently support binary installs: rbenv/ruby-build#42

chruby is coupled with ruby-install (confusing, I know) and doesn't support binary installs either AFAIK: postmodern/ruby-install#138

So you may be stuck indeed. Let's try to put some wind in those RVM sails I guess.

from build-image.

rvm has added 2.5.0 to master (unreleased) ; see rvm/rvm#4265

There is also this issue: rvm/rvm#4291

That one is still open.

from build-image.

@jayvdb That issue, and the fact they haven't done a proper release is what is blocking for us.

from build-image.

Then at least allow users to force disable-binary if they wish? Netlify is the reason I get so many emails, or have bug reports for things that aren't even bugs. I've no want to support 2.4 because it doesn't have top level return, define_method is private, and so many other problems... now I have to consider reverting modern changes because users have no out for 2.4 being the latest version, and there is no backup.

from build-image.

We've been in contact with the upstream maintainers of the rvm binaries for Ubuntu, and they have identified the problem. The maintainer is currently on holiday, but hopefully we can get the fix released when they return.

from build-image.

I don't want to blame anyone, but I am curious as I am moving my site to Netlify...is it usual to have such a long time between a release and support for a Ruby version? I tried to downgrade to 2.4.2, and apparently it doesn't work either and tells me it's falling back to 2.3.6.

Anything we can do to help? I guess the issue is that no one else than RVM has binary releases, is that it?

from build-image.

from build-image.

btw it is possible to get 2.5.1 working.

to do that, make your build command gem install bundler && foo where foo is your normal build command.

from build-image.

Why not have your Docker images supply the binaries on the image itself ahead of time with automation? This can easily be achieved with any CI.

from build-image.

Automating Ruby binaries into a Docker image, rolling them out, and in on automatic builds is not "technical debt", that's an abused term. While it would require more work upfront, it would have both solved, and prevented this issue from ever happening, and allowed people to move to a different Ruby version faster than RVM can manage.

This ticket is filed in December of last year, that's not "soon", RVM is the technical debt.

from build-image.

Not sure why this was closed.

from build-image.

This is done. Will be deployed early next week.
