module RI # Encapsulate all the strangeness to do with finding out # where to find RDoc files # # We basically deal with three directories: # # 1. The 'system' documentation directory, which holds # the documentation distributed with Ruby, and which # is managed by the Ruby install process # 2. The 'site' directory, which contains site-wide # documentation added locally. # 3. The 'user' documentation directory, stored under the # user's own home directory. # # There's contention about all this, but for now: # # system:: $datadir/ri//system/... # site:: $datadir/ri//site/... # user:: ~/.rdoc module Paths #:stopdoc: require 'rbconfig' DOC_DIR = "doc/rdoc" version = Config::CONFIG['ruby_version'] base = File.join(Config::CONFIG['datadir'], "ri", version) SYSDIR = File.join(base, "system") SITEDIR = File.join(base, "site") homedir = ENV['HOME'] || ENV['USERPROFILE'] || ENV['HOMEPATH'] if homedir HOMEDIR = File.join(homedir, ".rdoc") else HOMEDIR = nil end # This is the search path for 'ri' PATH = [ SYSDIR, SITEDIR, HOMEDIR ].find_all {|p| p && File.directory?(p)} begin require 'rubygems' GEMDIRS = Dir["#{Gem.path}/doc/*/ri"] GEMDIRS.each { |path| RI::Paths::PATH << path } rescue LoadError GEMDIRS = nil end # Returns the selected documentation directories as an Array, or PATH if no # overriding directories were given. def self.path(use_system, use_site, use_home, use_gems, *extra_dirs) path = raw_path(use_system, use_site, use_home, use_gems, *extra_dirs) return path.select { |path| File.directory? path } end # Returns the selected documentation directories including nonexistent # directories.
