ruby-core #122408
Issue #21350 has been updated by hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA). Status changed from Open to Closed Assignee set to hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA) I have no plan to add the documentation of bundled gems under the docs.r-l.o. I don't want to spend the time for coordinating all bundled gems especially gems outside ruby org of GitHub. >I think they should: >1. have their own documentation >2. AND those should be linked from Ruby's doc I'm +1 to above Stan's direction. However, that decision depends on the bundled gems maintainer. ---------------------------------------- Misc #21350: Bundled gems lack online documentation https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/21350#change-113583 * Author: osyoyu (Daisuke Aritomo) * Status: Closed * Assignee: hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA) ---------------------------------------- Libraries which have been converted into bundled gems seem to have no online documentation. For example, `csv` had its documentation inside docs.ruby-lang.org up to Ruby 3.3: https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/3.3/CSV.html but after it has turned into a bundled gem, there is no online documentation (try searching in https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/3.4/). This is the case for all bundled gems, including major modules such as `Base64` (missing since 3.4 docs) and `Logger` (missing since master docs). Given that these libraries are still `require`able without any special installation, it would be nice to have their documentation on docs.ruby-lang.org (or somewhere online reachable from Google). -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ ______________________________________________ ruby-core mailing list -- ruby-core@ml.ruby-lang.org To unsubscribe send an email to ruby-core-leave@ml.ruby-lang.org ruby-core info -- https://ml.ruby-lang.org/mailman3/lists/ruby-core.ml.ruby-lang.org/
