Installing Ruby with Rbenv

This repository was originally meant to whoever is struggling installing ruby with rbenv or ruby/rails in general, this process can be done using ruby-installer.sh or with a manual installation with the appropriate steps found in the section below.

Usage

Use the following commands to run the script:

$ cd ~
$ git clone ruby-rbenv
$ mv ruby-rbenv/ruby-installer.sh ~
$ ./ruby-installer.sh

This script was not properly tested and will install rails, take it with a grain of salt, though, if you have doubts about using it, just use the manual steps.

If the script doesn’t run use chmod and allow it to be executed.

> Manual Installation

# clone rbenv source code and add it do PATH
git clone https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv.git ~/.rbenv
# initialize rbenv
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
echo 'eval "$(rbenv init -)"' >> ~/.bash_profile
# clone ruby-build to compile and install ruby
git clone https://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build.git ~/.rbenv/plugins/ruby-build
