Setting up a Ruby on Rails development environment on Mountain Lion

Having just installed Mountain Lion on my MBA, I encounted a few small problems while trying to install RVM as well as Ruby, etc. Below are the steps I took to get Ruby on Rails up and running on my new Mountain Lion install.

• Step 1. Install XCode (this isn't required but it's best to install it)

• Step 2. Install the XCode Command Line Tools from developer.apple.com. Note you need to download the 10.8 command line tools which is at the bottom of the list on XCode 4.4. I made the mistake of downloading the 10.7 Lion set first!

• Step 3. Install XQuartz

mkdir -p ~/Library/LaunchAgents
cp /usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/9.1.4/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents/
launchctl load -w ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.postgresql.plist

Ubuntu 12.04 Ruby on Rails Development Environment

I haven't set up an install guide for the latest ubuntu release, largely because the last set of instructions worked pretty closely with the latest and greatest Ubuntu, 12.04 Precise Pangolin, however when installing today, I found that there were enough differences in the way that I configure my setup to justify an update, so here it goes. Yes, I'm late to the party, but a quick google search didn't find anything that I felt was as complete for my requirements as my previous install guides, so here I go.

As always with my install guides, I have included here is just about everything you'll need (and then some) to get started with ruby on rails development with Ubuntu 12.04 as a platform. These are my settings and preferences, and this is certainly not the only way of doing things, so keep that in mind.

Step 1: Get the repos ready and run updates.

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

ssh -L localport:host:hostport user@ssh_server -N 

where:

• -L - port forwarding parameters (see below)
• localport - local port (chose a port that is not in use by other service)
• host - server that has the port (hostport) that you want to forward
• hostport - remote port

Redirect All Requests To Index.php Using .htaccess

In one of my pet projects, I redirect all requests to index.php, which then decides what to do with it:

Simple Example

This snippet in your .htaccess will ensure that all requests for files and folders that does not exists will be redirected to index.php:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
