I got a very limited internet connection on my office laptop and I want to install the 'best-in-place' gem. Since I use rails 4 I need to get the gem from github as far as I understood various threads. But I cant run bundle install with access outside of my local system.

Is it still possible to install that gem somehow? I already downloaded the folder form github and put it into my ruby but its not working that easy.

Best regards!

Edit: If thats not possible, does anyone of you uses an alternative gem with similar functions?

You can always clone it (or download it, as you have) and then access it later. Let's say that you downloaded it to: /home/user3665315/workspace/best_in_place

Then, in your Gemfile you can access it locally with the :path option

# Gemfile
gem "best_in_place", path: "/home/user3665315/workspace/best_in_place"

then run 

bundle install

and that's it, you have it working locally
