What is $LOAD_PATH in Ruby?
1 April 2022 (Updated 4 April 2022)
$LOAD_PATH
is a global array in Ruby that lists all the paths that Ruby will search when you use require
or load
. You can view the $LOAD_PATH
for your Ruby installation by inspecting $LOAD_PATH
in irb or in a Ruby script.
$LOAD_PATH
is similar in concept to the $PATH
global in Unix.
