How to install eRuby on Mac OS X 10.3

[Jonas Hartmann]

Welcome list, I am new to this and to ruby
I want to start ruby and use it instead of php where it is possible to
write small and medium sized web applications using sql and xml. i
tried that in php but was not happy with the object orientation.

I hope that ruby will force me into more oop-like coding style and
enable more possibilities - I once did java for a short period

Can one hand me over some tutorial/documentation links how to set up
ruby/eruby and configure apache on Mac OS X? apache is already running:
http://ionas.homeunix.org/

I was following the following information:
http://modruby.net/en/index.rbx/mod_ruby/install.html#label-0

ionas:~/Desktop/eruby-1.0.5 ionas$ ./configure.rb
--with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs --enable-shared

directory
make: *** [eruby] Error 1
ionas:~/Desktop/eruby-1.0.5 ionas$


There simply is no libruby.a - how do I get that libary now? how can I
compile it from where?

The following worked for me:

http://www.rubygarden.org/ruby?ModRubyWithRuby181

In general, look over http://www.rubygarden.org/ruby?RubyOnMacintosh for
more Ruby on Macintosh information. And if you have find anything new,
please add to the pages! There are a lot of repeat Mac questions that
would be nicely summarized on the wiki.

The other thing I did to configure on Mac was get readline working with
irb. I downloaded the bundle linked to on this page (it worked fine for
me on 10.3)-
http://cherryville.org/8896/ruby_readline_for_mac.html

irb is an interactive ruby interpreter that is helpful when learning
ruby. readline enables command history in it.

eRuby is similair to PHP where the code is actually embedded in the
HTML. Mod_Ruby is like mod_perl allowing for ruby Ruby scripts to be
run efficiently on the server side.

Thanks to your short and good help, I made it working! (Mac OS X 10.3
Apache 1.x with mod_ruby)

Anyone can recommend me some Ruby, preferably eRuby tutorials/examples?

It is probably easier to install and configure DarwinPorts
<http://www.opendarwin.org/> and use all the ruby modules from
there.

That way you'll get Ruby 1.8 (system one is 1.6.8) and lots of
modules.

system one is 1.6.8?
The one Mac OS X ships, yes.
I used darwinports and I was not happy/successful, then I made it by
hand and it works fine now
