How to perform single-user installation? #101

Closed x-yuri closed 7 years ago

x-yuri commented 8 years ago

The README.md says this is what's needed:

rvm1_install_flags: '--auto-dotfiles --user-install'
rvm1_install_path: '/home/{{ ansible_ssh_user }}/.rvm'

Also, it says:

A quick note about rvm1_user

In some cases you may want the rvm folder and its files to be owned by a specific user instead of root. Simply set rvm1_user: 'foo' and when ruby gets installed it will ensure that foo owns the rvm directory.

But when not specifying rvm1_user, it's gonna be root. And if it's root, ansible_ssh_user won't be able to install gems, create gemsets. Or so I think. Am I wrong?

UPD And rvm is sourced for root, not for ansible_ssh_user.
