JRuby - an implementation of the Ruby language on the JVM

Master: Linux, Windows 9.3 branch: Linux, Windows

About

JRuby is an implementation of the Ruby language using the JVM.

It aims to be a complete, correct and fast implementation of Ruby, at the same time as providing powerful new features such as concurrency without a global-interpreter-lock, true parallelism, and tight integration to the Java language to allow you to use Java classes in your Ruby program and to allow JRuby to be embedded into a Java application.

You can use JRuby simply as a faster version of Ruby, you can use it to run Ruby on the JVM and access powerful JVM libraries such as highly tuned concurrency primitives, you can use it to embed Ruby as a scripting language in your Java program, or many other possibilities.

We're a welcoming community - you can talk to us on #jruby on Libera. There are core team members in the EU and US time zones.

Visit the JRuby website and the JRuby wiki for more information.

Getting JRuby

To run JRuby you will need a JRE (the Java VM runtime environment) version 8 or higher.

Your operating system may provide a JRE and JRuby in a package manager, but you may find that this version is very old.

An alternative is to use one of the Ruby version managers.

For rbenv you will need the ruby-build plugin. You may find that your system package manager can provide these. To see which versions of JRuby are available you should run:

$ rbenv install jruby

Note: if you do not regularly git update rbenv this list of versions may be out of date.

We recommend always selecting the latest version of JRuby from the list. You can install that particular version (9.2.13.0 is just for illustration):

$ rbenv install jruby-9.2.13.0

For rvm you can simply do:

$ rvm install jruby

Using Homebrew works too:

$ brew install jruby

You can also download packages from the JRuby website that you can unpack and run in place.

Building JRuby

See BUILDING for information about prerequisites, how to compile JRuby from source and how to test it.
