How to sandbox a rails application so that dependencies are installed locally without having to re-run bundle install

I'm trying to sandbox a rails application so that i can port it over to other machines without having to re-bundle. Is there a way for rails to pull in dependencies locally to self-sustain?

All dependencies are stored in the Gemfile.lock. All gems stored in ruby directory. You can run once bundle install to create Gemfile.lock. Then save Gemefile.lock and pack a directory with gems. After it you can copy your pack to server and deploy you application.

but if you move directory to a different environment, say docker, and say you don't have internet, you wouldn't be able to bundle install.

you don't need to run bundle install if have Gemfile.lock and have same ruby version and all gems according to Gemfile.lock.

Also look at bundle package and bundle install --local commands. Maybe that what you need.

bundle package

bundle install --local

is there a way you can specify --local for certain gems?

If you use in Gemfile gem "gem name", path: "/local/path". Then your gem will be installed from local machine
