+bundle-console(1) -- Deprecated way to open an IRB session with the bundle pre-loaded
+=====================================================================================
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+
+`bundle console` [GROUP]
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+
+Starts an interactive Ruby console session in the context of the current bundle.
+
+If no `GROUP` is specified, all gems in the `default` group in the [Gemfile(5)](https://bundler.io/man/gemfile.5.html) are
+preliminarily loaded.
+
+If `GROUP` is specified, all gems in the given group in the Gemfile in addition
+to the gems in `default` group are loaded. Even if the given group does not
+exist in the Gemfile, IRB console starts without any warning or error.
+
+The environment variable `BUNDLE_CONSOLE` or `bundle config set console` can be used to change
+the shell from the following:
+
+* `irb` (default)
+* `pry` (https://github.com/pry/pry)
+* `ripl` (https://github.com/cldwalker/ripl)
+
+`bundle console` uses irb by default. An alternative Pry or Ripl can be used with
+`bundle console` by adjusting the `console` Bundler setting. Also make sure that
+`pry` or `ripl` is in your Gemfile.
+
+## EXAMPLE
+
+    $ bundle config set console pry
+    $ bundle console
+    Resolving dependencies...
+    [1] pry(main)>
+
+## NOTES
+
+This command was deprecated in Bundler 2.1 and will be removed in 3.0.
+Use `bin/console` script, which can be generated by `bundle gem <NAME>`.
