Installing RVM and Ruby

Install the Developer Tools from Xcode (this should have happened for most of you)

xcode-select --install

Access a specific URL using a secured line and run the downloaded program

curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable

Restart the terminal, and try running the command rvm.

If it doesn't work...

• Open the bash_profile up in Sublime

  subl ~/.bash_profile

• Add these lines into the bottom of the bash_profile and save it

  [[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" `
  export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.rvm/bin"
  source ~/.profile
  

Restart the terminal again

rvm

rvm list known

rvm get stable --auto

Go here and find the most recent version - https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/

Latest version at the time of writing was 2.3.0, swap those in for the latest stable version that shows on that website

rvm install ruby-2.3.0

rvm --default use 2.3.0

Let's test that it has all worked.

• ruby -v
• rvm -v
• which ruby - should not return anything in the /usr/local/bin
• which rvm

If all of this has worked, run...

gem install pry
