Hi,
I've written some small Ruby apps for monitoring things at work but
am not enjoying distributing them.
Seems for each person I have to install Ruby, then the extra
libraries I use (currently just ori8 and net-ssh). I'd like to write
a gui front end, but shudder at the thought of then having to install
qt / fox / whatever.
Am I missing something here? Do I have to do this for each machine in
order to just let someone else run a Ruby script?
How can I lessen the pain?
Is it possible to install the libraries on the LAN and each machine
run them from there?
I don't mind installing the Ruby interpreter and I even like Scite
(with modified a ruby proffile , it's the extra stuff I'm talking
about.
I've tried rubyscript2exe (we're talking Windows boxes), and it seems
to work fine for some things but breaks the Oracle bindings.
I've considered a web app, but I don't have access to a place to
serve it.
Cheers,
Dave
