How to get Convenient Service root folder?

  • Call ConvenientService.root to get the gem's installation directory as a Pathname.

    ConvenientService.root
# => #<Pathname:/path/to/gems/convenient_service-1.0.0>

  • Since the returned value is a Pathname, all standard path operations are available.

    ConvenientService.root.join("lib", "convenient_service.rb")
# => #<Pathname:/path/to/gems/convenient_service-1.0.0/lib/convenient_service.rb>

ConvenientService.root.join("lib", "convenient_service.rb").exist?
# => true

  • ConvenientService.root is inspired by Rails.root.
