Dan over at Hivelogic released an updated guide for installing Ruby, Rails Gems, Rails, and MySQL. Check out the article here. If there’s anything else that you need to install (like RSpec, Capistrano, SVN) you can do that with the following commands.
To install RSpec just type:
$ gem install rspec
To install Capistrano, type:
$ gem install capistrano
To install SVN it’s a little different, so you’ll have to install with the following command:
$ curl -O http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/subversion-1.4.3.tar.gz curl -O http://subversion.tigris.org/downloads/subversion-deps-1.4.3.tar.gz tar xzvf subversion-1.4.3.tar.gz tar xzvf subversion-deps-1.4.3.tar.gz cd subversion-1.4.3 ./configure –prefix=/usr/local –with-openssl –with-ssl with-zlib make sudo make install Once you have everything is done you should be all set. If you want to check out any other gems, check out this site http://gems.rubyforge.org/gems/.
