### Public Instance Methods

download (options)
Source

    # File lib/rubygems/resolver/specification.rb, line 108
    def download(options)
      dir = options[:install_dir] || Gem.dir

      Gem.ensure_gem_subdirectories dir

      source.download spec, dir
    end

full_name ()
Source

    # File lib/rubygems/resolver/specification.rb, line 83
    def full_name
      "#{@name}-#{@version}"
    end

The name and version of the specification.

Unlike `Gem::Specification#full_name`, the platform is not included.

install (options = {}) { |installer| ... }
Source

    # File lib/rubygems/resolver/specification.rb, line 96
    def install(options = {})
      require_relative "../installer"

      gem = download options

      installer = Gem::Installer.at gem, options

      yield installer if block_given?

      @spec = installer.install
    end

Installs this specification using the `Gem::Installer` `options`. The install method yields a `Gem::Installer` instance, which indicates the gem will be installed, or `nil`, which indicates the gem is already installed.

After installation `spec` is updated to point to the just-installed specification.

installable_platform? ()
Source

    # File lib/rubygems/resolver/specification.rb, line 119
    def installable_platform?
      Gem::Platform.match_spec? spec
    end

Returns true if this specification is installable on this platform.
