INSTALLING
==========

This is how I, Cies Breijs, got the new-layout branch of Mostfit to install and run.  I use RVM and gemsets to do so.  This is not a copy-paste script for a clean install ubuntu -- merely a not to self for what was needed to do the trick on my machine.




git clone git@git.mostfit.in:mostfit.git
git co new-layout

rvm use 1.8.7  # install it if you haven't got it already
rvm gemset create mostfit-new-layout
rvm 1.8.7@mostfit-new-layout
rvm rubygems 1.4.2

# found this in install instructions
gem install thor -v 0.9.9
gem install dm-observer -v 0.10.1
gem install uuid pdf-writer mongrel log4r

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient16-dev mysql-server

thor merb:gem:redeploy
thor merb:gem:install

gem install uuid pdf-writer mongrel log4r i18n-translators-tools \
            i18n-translators-tools google-spreadsheet-ruby i18n \
            fastercsv rgettext roo

cp config/example.database.yml config/database.yml
vi config/database.yml

##  SECOND ATTEMPT

I heard from Sid that I was doing it wrong, so here my second attempt.



git clone git@git.mostfit.in:mostfit.git
git co new-layout

rvm use 1.8.7  # install it if you haven't got it already
rvm gemset create mostfit-new-layout
rvm 1.8.7@mostfit-new-layout
rvm rubygems 1.4.2

(cd gems/cache; gem install --local * --no-ri --no-rdoc)
# got errors: pdf-writer wants color, and roo wants spreadsheet, google-spreadsheet-ruby wants hpricot

cp config/example.database.yml config/database.yml
vi config/database.yml
