[Announcement 📣] Removing the avo gem from packager.dev

[adrianthedev]

Hey everyone,

We have one tiny breaking change for you guys.
Apologies for so many during this Avo 3 launch.

Video instructions

Important

Remove source: "https://packager.dev/avo-hq" from your gem "avo" declaration and run bundle update avo by January 22nd.

What

We will remove the avo gem from packager.dev.
It will still be available in rubygems.org.

So if you have the source specified on the avo gem, in your Gemfile please remove it and run bundle install

# Before
gem "avo", source: "https://packager.dev/avo-hq"

# After
gem "avo"

# These stay the same
gem "avo-pro", source: "https://packager.dev"
gem "avo-advanced", source: "https://packager.dev"

After removing the source from the avo gem run a bundle update avo, commit the changes and you're done.

All other gems (avo-pro and avo-advanced) should still have the source set to packager.dev.

Why?

We don't want to publish avo on two servers (pacakger.dev and rubygems.org), but just on the public one rubygems.org.

This is how bundler works.
Because you set the source to pacakger.dev on avo-advanced or avo-pro, and both of them have avo as a dependency, bundler will try to find an avo gem inside packager.dev.
Because we don't want to publish in two places, we'd like for bundler to take the rubygems.org version, so we need to remove ours from packager.dev so it won't find it.

When?

We will remove the avo gem from packager.dev Monday, January 22nd 2024.

Thank you,
Adrian & Paul
