INSTALLING

This document describes how to quickly install Mostfit (the branch that you are looking at).

Both rvm and gemsets are employed to do so.

This is not a copy-paste script for a clean install ubuntu -- YMMV.

SECOND ATTEMPT

I heard that I was doing it wrong, so here my second attempt. This seems to work nicely.

git clone git@git.mostfit.in:mostfit.git
# git co new-layout   # in case the branch is other then master

rvm use 1.8.7  # install it if you haven't got it already
rvm gemset create mostfit
rvm use 1.8.7@mostfit
rvm rubygems 1.4.2
# got an error but that could be safely ignored in my case

(cd gems/cache; gem install --local * --no-ri --no-rdoc)
# got errors: pdf-writer wants color, and roo wants spreadsheet, google-spreadsheet-ruby wants hpricot

cp config/example.database.yml config/database.yml
vi config/database.yml

bin/merb

FIRST ATTEMPT

Here I use thor, which is not the most ideal method...

git clone git@git.mostfit.in:mostfit.git
# git co new-layout   # in case the branch is other then master

rvm use 1.8.7  # install it if you haven't got it already
rvm gemset create mostfit
rvm use 1.8.7@mostfit
rvm rubygems 1.4.2

# found this in install instructions
gem install thor -v 0.9.9
gem install dm-observer -v 0.10.1
gem install uuid pdf-writer mongrel log4r

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient16-dev mysql-server

thor merb:gem:redeploy
thor merb:gem:install

gem install uuid pdf-writer mongrel log4r i18n-translators-tools \
            i18n-translators-tools google-spreadsheet-ruby i18n \
            fastercsv rgettext roo

cp config/example.database.yml config/database.yml
vi config/database.yml
