Compiling Compass.app on Mac OS X

gistfile1.txt

Tutorial for compiling the Compass.app (http://compass.handlino.com/)
=====================================================================

Java installed?
	java -version
	
Load jRuby (for example JRuby 1.6.5.1 Binary .zip)
	http://jruby.org/download
	
Unzip jRuby to `/usr/local/`

Rename folder to `jruby`

Open Terminal and define the path for the current session, adding jruby to simplify the path calls
	`PATH=/usr/local/jruby/bin:$PATH`

Installation of a gem (rawr) from jruby
	`jruby -S gem install rawr`

Switch to Applications folder
	`cd ~/Applications`
	
Create a clone from Github Repo
	`git clone git://github.com/handlino/CompassApp.git "CompassApp"`
	
Switch to CompassApp folder
	`cd CompassApp/`
	
Compile
	`bin/build-all.sh`
	

	
Updating the App
===============

Define the path for the current session
	`PATH=/usr/local/jruby/bin:$PATH`

Check for jruby updates
	`jruby -S gem update`
	
Switch to CompassApp folder
	`cd ~/Applications/CompassApp`

Get new files from Github Repo
	`git pull`

Compile
	`bin/build-all.sh`

On windows XP when i enter bin\build-all.sh, I get this:

C:\Documents and Settings\Ante Primorac\CompassApp>bin\build-all.sh

where I'm wrong?

Sory for my bad english :D

I got it to work by using 'jruby -S rake rawr:bundle:all' in the compile step. Failed on Windows 7 x64 though (Lion worked), so your mileage may vary, but the point is to run the build from within jruby and not regular ruby.

When I enter "jruby -S rake rawr:bundle:all" I get same error. Can you send me compailed .exe version of CompassApp?

I think that would contravene the license. Sorry. :)

Time ago i also compiled my own copy you can see almost all steps here http://hernan.in/im-beginning-with-compass

As rawr has been deprecated, you can install it using:

jruby -S gem install rawr --source http://gems.neurogami.com

@anteprimorac, I believe were missing JDK on your system ;-)
