Load gemspecs, versions info on start #8

Closed spox closed 14 years ago

spox commented 14 years ago

Creating LIDs makes a problem when we are still fetching and unpacking gems. The first thing we should do is cycle through our index and creating gem/version info in the database as well as saving the serialized gemspecs. At this point, users can access the /gem/GEMNAME page, but no documentation will be available.

This is setup but really, really slow. After digging through rubygems some more and some guidance from drbrain, I have found that there is a nicely packaged compressed file of all the gemspecs. So, now the task is to remove the rubygems API stuffs and do it by hand.
