RI(1) Ruby Programmers Reference Guide RI(1) NAME
ri -- Ruby API reference front end SYNOPSIS
ri [-Ti] [-d directory] [-f format] [--list-doc-dirs] [--no-standard-docs] [--[no-]{system|site|gems|home}] [--[no-]use-cache] [--width=width] [target ...] DESCRIPTION
ri is a CLI front end for the Ruby API reference. You can search and read API reference for classes and methods with ri. ri is a part of Ruby. target can be one of the following forms: Class for classes Class::method for class methods Class#method for instance methods Class.method for both class and instance methods method for both class and instance methods All class names may be abbreviated to their minimum unambiguous form. If a name is ambiguous, all valid options will be listed. For example: ri Fil ri File ri File.new ri zip Note that shell quoting may be required for method names containing punctuation: ri 'Array.[]' ri compact OPTIONS
--version Prints the version of ri. -T --no-pager Send output directly to stdout, rather than to a pager. -d directory --doc-dir=directory List of directories from which to source documentation in addition to the standard directories. May be repeated. -f FORMAT --fmt FORMAT --format=FORMAT Format to use when displaying output: ansi, bs, html, plain, simple Use 'bs' (backspace) with most pager programs. To use ANSI, either disable the pager or tell the pager to allow control char- acters. -i --interactive This makes ri go into interactive mode. When ri is in interactive mode it will allow the user to disambiguate lists of methods in case multiple methods match against a method search string. It also will allow the user to enter in a method name (with auto-completion, if readline is sup- ported) when viewing a class. --list-doc-dirs List the directories from which ri will source documentation on stdout and exit. --no-standard-docs Do not include documentation from the Ruby standard library, site_lib, installed gems, or ~/.rdoc. Equivalent to specifying the options --no-system, --no-site, --no-gems, and --no-home. --[no-]system Include documentation from Ruby's standard library. Defaults to true. --[no-]site Include documentation from libraries installed in site_lib. Defaults to true. --[no-]gems Include documentation from RubyGems. Defaults to true. --[no-]home Include documentation stored in ~/.rdoc. Defaults to true. --[no-]use-cache Whether or not to use ri's cache. True by default. -w width --width=width Set the width of the output. ENVIRONMENT
RI Additional options. PAGER Used as the name of pager program for displaying. HOME USERPROFILE HOMEPATH Path to user's home directory. FILES

Security vulnerabilities should be reported via an email to <security@ruby-lang.org>. Reported problems will be published after being fixed. And you can report other bugs and feature requests via the Ruby Issue Tracking System (http://bugs.ruby-lang.org). Do not report security vulnerabilities via the system because it publishes the vulnerabilities immediately. AUTHORS
