This tool is used to install rbenv
and some plugins. It also provides
scripts to install required software to be able to compile Ruby.
Installed plugins are rbenv-vars
, ruby-build
& rbenv-installer
.
Install git
and curl
:
sudo apt-get -y install git-core curl
Make sure your user has sudo
privileges.
Install rbenv and friends by running:
curl https://raw.github.com/fesplugas/rbenv-installer/master/bin/rbenv-installer | bash
Install Ruby 1.9.3-p194
and make it global:
rbenv install 1.9.3-p194
rbenv global 1.9.3-p194
Update rbenv
and plugins provided by the installer running:
rbenv update
If you are installing rbenv
in Ubuntu you'll probably need to install
required packages first:
rbenv bootstrap-ubuntu-12-04
rbenv bootstrap-ubuntu-10-04
To update RubyGems
and install bundler
and rake
:
rbenv bootstrap
Install patched ruby-build
by using the following command:
rbenv patch-ruby-build
Now when you install a new Ruby
it will try to download a package
from a RUBY_PACKAGE_REPO
. If no packages available it will compile
the package as usual.
export RUBY_PACKAGE_REPO=https://www.strongspace.com/shared/lxc1jwhowa
You can always add the previous export
into your .bashrc
to install
always from that package repo.
