Question

我创建了一个rails应用程序，并尝试启动rails服务器。我收到了以下错误：

虽然我可以通过从gem 'therubyracer', platforms: :ruby删除Gemfile行之前的评论来解决此问题。

为什么当我们在启动rails应用程序时首先需要它时，这个gem被注释掉了？

Answer 1

因为如果在机器上安装了另一个JavaScript运行时（如Node.js），Rails可以使用它，并且不需要therubyracer。

Rails使用ExecJS加载JavaScript运行时。有关ExecJS的更多信息，请参阅其Github页面：https://github.com/sstephenson/execjs。自述文件提供了可用运行时列表（作为错误日志说明）。

根据您的部署过程和生产环境，您使用哪个JavaScript运行时可能并不重要。有些人对therubyracer库的大小有疑问（参见Rails - Could not find a JavaScript runtime?），在生产服务器上安装它可能并不聪明。

为什么gem`therubyracer`默认在Gemfile中注释掉了？
