Where is my rails installation located? Where are the rails plugins?

Question

I'm trying to delete a plugin I installed for rails (paperclip). But I actually don't have any idea where I can find my local rails installation directory.

So where can I find rails and rails plugins in my local file system? I have OS X.

Or how can I uninstall paperclip from the command line?

Thx!

Answer 1

paperclip is a rails plugin, which means it is in

[your rails app directory]/vendor/plugins/paperclip

so if you delete that folder, paperclip is gone.

Answer 2

Under the directory vendor/plugins of directory created by the rails command.

Answer 3

The rails application is located under:

/user/local/lib/ruby

Those directories may be hidden, so you have to enable the display of hidden files, to see your installation.
