How to deal with gems that have binary dependencies? #60

Open sserdyuk opened 9 years ago

sserdyuk commented 9 years ago

Hi There! I am trying to use Releasy to build a Windows exe on Linux using windows_wrapped build method. The question I have: how to deal with gems that have binary dependencies? Nokogiri is the one I'm looking at specifically.

Well, it is a very long time since I looked at this (I work exclusively with python nowadays and sort of left poor releasy to languish), but as far as i remember, it should "just work" by downloading the windows version of the gem for you.

Thank you for prompt response. Do you remember how it locates dependencies? I have a Gemfile. Is that enough?

A gemfile is required and yes, it should get the info it needs from there.
