To get RapidFTR running on your machine while its in a dev environment, you'll need to install the following:

  • It will tell you what else you need to install to get homebrew up and running
• CouchDB: brew install couchdb

Ruby 1.9.3 via RVM

• Follow RVM install instructions to install RVM
• You need Apple GCC to compile Ruby: ** Homebrew: brew install apple-gcc42
• Install Ruby 1.9.3 by running the following command. The last --patch railsexpress will speed up Ruby a lot, but it is optional. You can safely omit the railsexpress patch if its not working in your machine.

CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc-4.2 rvm install 1.9.3-p392 --with-gcc=gcc-4.2 --patch railsexpress
(OR)
CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc-4.2 rvm install 1.9.3-p392 --with-gcc=gcc-4.2

• Clone the RapidFTR codebase:

git clone git://github.com/rapidftr/RapidFTR.git
(or clone your fork)

• Run: rvm --create use 1.9.3-p392@rapidftr
