Rails 2.0 on Leopard
February 15, 2008 § 3 Comments
I wanted to try out some of the new Ruby on Rails 2.0 features in Leopard, so I may as well blog my notes here for future reference.
1. Update Gems
Use this if you haven’t ugpraded your system to Rails 2.0 yet.
sudo gem update --system # Update "gems" itself
sudo gem install rails # not just update, since there's new components
sudo gem uninstall actionwebservice # Get rid of SOAP; REST rules!
sudo gem update # update everything else, to help Rails 2.0 compatibility
yes | sudo gem cleanup # Remove old versions
yes | sudo gem cleanup # Twice, because of dependencies
gem list
actionmailer (2.0.2)
actionpack (2.0.2)
activerecord (2.0.2)
activeresource (2.0.2)
activesupport (2.0.2)...
mongrel (1.1.3)...
rails (2.0.2)
rake (0.8.1)...
sqlite3-ruby (1.2.1)
...
2. Create Project
Create the Rails project, and make sure it and Mongrel work properly.
cd ~/Developer # where I keep all my Rails projects
rails miniblog # Create new Rails hierarchy
cd !$
open http://0.0.0.0:3000 && script/server # start server and launch Safari
=> Booting Mongrel (use 'script/server webrick' to force WEBrick)
=> Rails application starting on http://0.0.0.0:3000
3. Create Scaffold
Use [Command-T] to create a new Tab in Terminal, so the server can keep displaying output in original Tab.
cd ~/Developer/miniblog
script/generate scaffold article title:string content:text
open http://0.0.0.0:3000/articles # Will return error, since no tables
4. Add to Xcode Organizer
- Launch Xcode
- Click on Window -> Organizer (Ctrl-Command-O)
- Drag ~/Developer/miniblog into Organizer window
- Select “miniblog”
- Under ‘Action’, choose “rake db:migrate”
open http://0.0.0.0:3000/articles
