Ruby 一步步安装

I kept thinking for a while on what do I have next in the store
Here we go “Ruby on Rails”

Ruby on Rails, often shortened to Rails or RoR, is an open source web application framework for the Ruby Programming language.Ruby is a pure object-oriented programming language with a super-clean syntax that makes programming elegant and fun.

What is Rails?

Rails is an open source Ruby framework for developing web-based, databasedriven applications. Dozens of frameworks are out and most of them have been around much longer than Rails. Why do we then have a different framework?

Rails help us in developing a web application at least ten times faster than we can with a typical Java framework. We can–without making any sacrifices in the quality of our application!

When I got started with this topic, I just lacked a proper installation guide to help me with the installation. So I’m trying to make my reader’s life easier.

Ruby on Rails Installation:

To develop a web application using Ruby on Rails Framework, install the following software:
· Ruby
· The Rails framework
· A Web Server
· A Database System

We can use the WEBrick Web Server which comes with Ruby.Rails works with many database systems, including MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Oracle, DB2 and SQL Server.

Rails Installation on Windows:

1. Install Ruby
Download an installation package from rubyinstaller.rubyforge.org.
Follow the download link, and run the resulting installer. We will get RubyGems along with this package.

2. With Ruby Gems loaded, we can install Rails and its dependencies through the command line.
C:/> gem install rails –include-dependencies
We would get the following error:
C:/Ruby>gem install rails –include-dependencies
INFO: `gem install -y` is now default and will be removed
INFO: use –ignore-dependencies to install only the gems you list
ERROR: http://gems.rubyforge.org/ does not appear to be a repository
ERROR: could not find gem rails locally or in a repository
As connecting to the repository gives us a problem here, let us download the required gems locally and do
the installation step by step.

下载rails.xx.zip rails.xx.gem 放到待安装的目录中：（注意zip文件不需要解压）

然后 gem install rails --local 出出现提示。 需要什么 gem 文件。 然后 一步步的安装

Installation Verification

We can verify whether everything is setup properly or not.
Use the following command to create a demo project.
This will generate a demo rail project.

C:/Ruby>rails demo
create
create app/controllers
create app/helpers
…………………………………………..
…………………………………………..
create log/development.log
create log/test.log

Now next use the following command to run WEBrick web server on your machine.
C:/Ruby>cd demo
C:/Ruby/demo>ruby script/server
=> Booting WEBrick
=> Rails 2.3.2 application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Call with -d to detach
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server
[2009-04-30 11:02:21] INFO WEBrick 1.3.1
[2009-04-30 11:02:21] INFO ruby 1.8.6 (2008-08-11) [i386-mswin32]
[2009-04-30 11:02:21] INFO WEBrick::HTTPServer#start: pid=3624 port=3000
Now open your browser and type the following address.
http://localhost:3000
If everything is fine then you should have a message something like “Welcome aboard” or “Congratulations“.
