Requires Ruby 2.1+ (uses keyword arguments) about society HOT 6 CLOSED

Keyword arguments were introduced in ruby 2.0, which is the oldest version that has not been EOL'ed. It does require ruby 2.1 because it uses required keyword arguments.

Not that it makes a huge difference, just pointing that out.

I do think it is nice for gem to explicitly state the version requirements they need to run.

I put something in the Gemfile to throw an exception unless the Ruby version is > 2.0. Hopefully that resolves the issue.

@CoralineAda But the Gemfile won't be run on gem install, will it?

Hmm, you may be right.

@zamith (MRI) Ruby < 2.0 may be EOL, but it isn't for JRuby. Those using JRuby could benefit from knowing this won't work for them.

Sure. I agree this should be noted on the README, as I believe it is now.
