Ruby on Rails on OS X

Installing RoR … thats the way it should be (note that i am using DarwinPorts)

  • port install ruby
  • port install rb-rubygems
  • gem install rails –include dependencies

Et voila. Here you go. Ruby, Rubygems and RoR and is installed

  • rails test
  • cd test
  • rails script/server

Et voila. You can open your Browser and go to “localhost:3000″ and your career as a RoR developer can start. Go search on jobs.ch for “Ruby”. The results aren’t thrilling. One hit. Ahhhh. Maybe I stay with java (386 hits) as long as I stay in switzerland :-)

Update: I installed the same things on my G4 1Ghz Powerbook. I have to admit that it took some time: No gcc (HD replaced and the install DVD has gone missing) -> download 1 GB of Developer Too. Install these Tools, get and build Ruby… but still everything works fine. Just takes some time
