rbenv-macruby is an extension for the rbenv ruby version manager that allows you to use
MacRuby versions installed via the MacRuby installer with rbenv. When using MacRuby
through rbenv you can use the normal ruby binary names instead of the ones prefixed by "mac" (e.g.
ruby
instead of macruby
, irb
instead of macirb
...). Further gems are stored inside the
~/.rbenv
directory and managed independently of the system MacRuby gems (which alleviates the need
for sudo
when installing gems and keeps /usr/local/bin
free of MacRuby gem binary symlinks.)
Clone rbenv-macruby to the $HOME/.rbenv/plugins
directory:
$ mkdir -p ~/.rbenv/plugins
$ cd ~/.rbenv/plugins
$ git clone git://github.com/brettg/rbenv-macruby.git
There is only one setup command that should be run once initially and each time you add:
$ rbenv macruby init
Once installed rbenv versions
should list all installed version of MacRuby. Just setup rbenv to
use one of those and use MacRuby as you would ruby.
