The goal of this repo is to demonstrate how Vagrant and RubyMine work together. The Vagrant file makes use of a simple bash script in the repo to install and set up a custom stack (Ubuntu, Ruby 2.1.3, rvm, bundler, etc.).

The repo contains a sample Rails application (that RubyMine syncs to the vagrant box), but the idea can easily be extended to a more complex application.

Similarly, note that the prescribed set up does not intentionally include all of the relevant rvm/rails/scripting best practices.

1. Start RubyMine
2. Clone this repo (from the RM dialog box or from VCS menu).
3. Go to: Tools/Vagrant/Up. Wait till the box starts (takes a while).
4. Go to: RubyMine/Preferences/Tools/Vagrant (see Figure 1) to confirm box appears.
5. Go to: RubyMine/Preferences/Languages & Frameworks/RubySDK & Gems. a. Add remote SDK. Just like Figure 2, ensure that the path to remote ruby is the rvm gem folder, not remote ruby. That is, the path should be: /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.3 b. Make sure the default SDK selected is remote ruby by clicking on checkbox (shift green check mark). See Figure 2b.
6. Go to: Run/Edit Configurations/Ruby SDK/Use Other SDK (Select remote SDK as in Figure 3.)
7. Go to: Run/Run or Run/Debug (see note on debugging below). 7b. Confirm success by visiting localhost:3000/greetings/hello. See Figure 4.
8. Finally: Tools/Vagrant/Halt (when done).

Figure 4: Server Running

The Gemfile does not have a debugger, so RubyMine will alert you when you try to run the debugger (via Run/Debug).

Just click on "install debase" when prompted by RubyMine (or update your Gemfile as you see fit).

If RubyMine cannot find your gems, it means that it's interacting with a wrong Ruby version on your box. Make sure you have followed the steps correctly.
