Ruby interpreter uses the following environment variables to control its behavior. The ENV object contains a list of all the current environment variables set.
Variable | Description |
---|---|
DLN_LIBRARY_PATH | Search path for dynamically loaded modules. |
HOME | Directory moved to when no argument is passed to Dir::chdir. Also used by File::expand_path to expand "~". |
LOGDIR | Directory moved to when no arguments are passed to Dir::chdir and environment variable HOME isn't set. |
PATH | Search path for executing subprocesses and searching for Ruby programs with the -S option. Separate each path with a colon (semicolon in DOS and Windows). |
RUBYLIB | Search path for libraries. Separate each path with a colon (semicolon in DOS and Windows). |
RUBYLIB_PREFIX | Used to modify the RUBYLIB search path by replacing prefix of library path1 with path2 using the format path1;path2 or path1path2. |
RUBYOPT | Command-line options passed to Ruby interpreter. Ignored in taint mode (Where $SAFE is greater than 0). |
RUBYPATH | With -S option, search path for Ruby programs. Takes precedence over PATH. Ignored in taint mode (where $SAFE is greater than 0). |
RUBYSHELL | Specifies shell for spawned processes. If not set, SHELL or COMSPEC are checked. |
For Unix use env command to see a list of all environment variables.
