Ruby environment variable
The Ruby interpreter uses the following environment variables to control its behavior. The ENV object contains a list of all currently set environment variables.

Description |
|---|---|
|
Dynamically loads the path that the module searches for. |
|
The directory to move to when no parameters are passed to Dir::chdir. Also used in File::expand_path to extend “~”. |
|
The directory to move to when no parameters are passed to Dir::chdir and the environment variable HOME is not set. |
|
Execute the search path for the child process, and the search path for the Ruby program after the-S option is specified. Each path is separated by a colon (semicolon in DOS and Windows). |
|
The search path to the library. Each path is separated by a colon (semicolonin DOS and Windows). |
|
Used to modify the RUBYLIB search path, replacing the library prefix path1 with path2 by using the format path1;path2 or path1path2. |
|
Command line options passed to the Ruby interpreter. Ignored in taint mode (where $SAFE is greater than 0). |
|
The search path of the Ruby program after the-S option is specified. Priority is higher than PATH. Ignored in taint mode (where $SAFE is greater than 0). |
|
Specifies the shell to be used when executing the command. If the environment variable is not set, SHELL or COMSPEC is used. |
For Unix, use the env command to view a list of all environment variables.
