bundle: Execute a command in the context of the current bundle.
$ bundle exec ${command} ${arguments}
try on your machine

The given command consists of the following parts:

  1. bundle exec: This is a prefix used in Ruby on Rails projects to run a command within the context of the current project's dependencies. It ensures that the command is executed using the appropriate versions of the gems (libraries) specified in the project's Gemfile.

  2. ${command}: This is a placeholder for a specific command that you need to replace with an actual command. It could be any executable command that you want to run, such as rails, rake, or rspec.

  3. ${arguments}: This is another placeholder, which represents any additional arguments or options that you want to pass to the command specified in ${command}. You should replace ${arguments} with the actual arguments desired for the command.

By combining these parts together, the command bundle exec ${command} ${arguments} is used to execute a command (specified in ${command}) within the context of a Ruby on Rails project, ensuring proper gem dependencies, and any additional arguments or options provided (${arguments}).
