How can I install a local gem?
ruby, rubygems
Solution
Yup, when you do `gem install`, it will search the current directory first, so if your .gem file is there, it will pick it up. I found it on the gem reference, which you may find handy as well:
gem install will install the named gem. It will attempt a local installation (i.e. a .gem file in the current directory), and if that fails, it will attempt to download and install the most recent version of the gem you want.
Problem
If I download a .gem file to a folder in my computer, can I install it later using `gem install`?
