Implementing rubysys with Artichoke Ruby #98

Closed lopopolo closed 5 years ago

lopopolo commented 5 years ago

Hi 👋 rutie looks amazing and I'm hoping we can work together.

I'm building a Ruby in Rust called Artichoke. The rubysys module in rutie looks really interesting and I am hoping I can find a way to use it to expose a libruby.a compatible static build of Artichoke. I want to run nokogiri.

Is it possible to extract rubysys into a crate? Would it be better to fork rutie?

I have a ticket in Artichoke if you'd like to discuss this further there: https://github.com/artichoke/artichoke/issues/88

The Artichoke README currently lists MRI C API compatibility as a non-goal, but I only did so because I thought it would be hard. Maybe it is easier than I thought it would be?

Hey, I just saw this. You could extract it, but it already exists: https://github.com/steveklabnik/ruby-sys . There has been a bunch of changes to it since then though so it's more up to date here. You may extract it as per the MIT license agreement but you would need the license to include a line for both Steve Klabnik, Dmitry Gritsay, and for myself Daniel P. Clark.

Thank you @danielpclark this answers my question, I'll close this issue.
