Ruby Packer (rubyc) compiles Ruby applications, including Rails apps and native C extensions, into a single self-contained executable for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It requires no code changes and bundles the Ruby interpreter and dependencies using SquashFS.
Use cases
- package a ruby script into a single executable
- distribute a rails app as one binary
- compile ruby app with native c extensions into standalone binary
- ship ruby cli tool without requiring ruby installed
- create cross-platform ruby executables for windows macos linux
When to avoid
- your app depends on gems like bootsnap that use libc IO to load files
- you need DTrace support on macOS or Linux
- you need actively maintained tooling with recent Ruby version support
