How to set relative BUNDLE_PATH that works both locally and with GitHub Actions?

[eliduke]

I am configuring a super basic ruby workflow as such:

- name: Set up Ruby
  uses: ruby/setup-ruby@v1
  with:
    bundler-cache: true

That's great, but then it automatically creates a .bundle/config file that sets the BUNDLE_PATH to something incredibly specific to GitHub Actions. That config file is now included in version control and completely throws off my local development:

---
BUNDLE_PATH: "/home/runner/work/repo-name/repo-name/vendor/bundle"
BUNDLE_DEPLOYMENT: "true"

Is there a way to set a relative bundle path? I tried editing that file and changing the path to ./vendor/bundle, and the workflow succeeds, but then it resets back to that same specific bundle path. OR is there a way to set a local path and then a different one for GitHub Actions? Or, maybe I need to delete the config completely, add .bundle/config to my .gitignore, turn bundler cache back on, and then run it all again?

Thanks for reading my rambling! Does any of this make sense? Thoughts? Suggestions?

The general advice from the Bundler project is to not commit .bundle/config – if that solves it for you I think you should go for that

Yeah, I think my problem is that I have a ruby workflow that might create some new files and then auto commits anything new. On the first run, it committed the bundle config. Ooops!

I got it all reset and sorted and it’s great now.

thanks!
