  def description
    <<-EOF
The unpack command allows you to examine the contents of a gem or modify
them to help diagnose a bug.

You can add the contents of the unpacked gem to the load path using the
RUBYLIB environment variable or -I:

  $ gem unpack my_gem
  Unpacked gem: '.../my_gem-1.0'
  [edit my_gem-1.0/lib/my_gem.rb]
  $ ruby -Imy_gem-1.0/lib -S other_program

You can repackage an unpacked gem using the build command.  See the build
command help for an example.

    path = get_path dependency

      alert_error "Gem '#{name}' not installed nor fetchable."
      next

find_in_cache(filename)

Find cached filename in Gem.path. Returns nil if the file cannot be found.

 
               # File rubygems/commands/unpack_command.rb, line 107
def find_in_cache(filename)
  Gem.path.each do |path|
    this_path = File.join(path, "cache", filename)
    return this_path if File.exist? this_path
  end

  return nil
end

get_metadata(path)

Extracts the Gem::Specification and raw metadata from the .gem file at path.

 
               # File rubygems/commands/unpack_command.rb, line 161
def get_metadata path
  format = Gem::Package.new path
  spec = format.spec

  metadata = nil

  open path, Gem.binary_mode do |io|
    tar = Gem::Package::TarReader.new io
    tar.each_entry do |entry|
      case entry.full_name
      when 'metadata' then
        metadata = entry.read
      when 'metadata.gz' then
        metadata = Gem.gunzip entry.read
      end
    end
  end

  return spec, metadata
end

get_path(dependency)

Return the full path to the cached gem file matching the given name and version requirement. Returns ‘nil’ if no match.

Example:

get_path 'rake', '> 0.4' # "/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/cache/rake-0.4.2.gem"
get_path 'rake', '< 0.1' # nil
get_path 'rak'           # nil (exact name required)

 
               # File rubygems/commands/unpack_command.rb, line 133
def get_path dependency
  return dependency.name if dependency.name =~ /\.gem$/i

  specs = dependency.matching_specs

  selected = specs.max_by { |s| s.version }

  return Gem::RemoteFetcher.fetcher.download_to_cache(dependency) unless
    selected

  return unless dependency.name =~ /^#{selected.name}$/i

  # We expect to find (basename).gem in the 'cache' directory.  Furthermore,
  # the name match must be exact (ignoring case).

  path = find_in_cache File.basename selected.cache_file

  return Gem::RemoteFetcher.fetcher.download_to_cache(dependency) unless path

  path
