Question

I am writing a gem, which should automatically define the path of the file where this gem is called.

Here is how it should work:

 # inside some custom.rb file   
 require 'my_super_gem'
   # after require gem should automatically define the path of custom.rb file

I thought that __FILE__ inside gem module is a good idea, but it defines the path of the gem module, but not of the file with require 'my_super_gem'.

Are there any possible solutions?

Answer 1

parse the result of

caller.first

or try to look into

loaded_features
