Laptop is a script to set up a Mac OS X (not Linux... for now) laptop for Rails development.
Install a C compiler:
For Snow Leopard (10.6): use OS X GCC Installer.
For Lion (10.7) or Mountain Lion (10.8): use Command Line Tools for XCode.
For Mavericks (10.9): run sudo xcodebuild -license and follow the instructions
to accept the XCode agreement. Then run xcode-select --install in your
terminal and then click "Install".
Read, then run the script:
bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TeaglesConsulting/laptop/master/mac)
- Zsh as your shell
- Bundler gem for managing Ruby libraries
- Foreman gem for serving Rails apps locally
- Homebrew for managing operating system libraries (OS X only)
- ImageMagick for cropping and resizing images
- Postgres for storing relational data
- Qt for headless JavaScript testing via Capybara Webkit
- Rails gem for writing web applications
- Rbenv for managing versions of the Ruby programming language
- Redis for storing key-value data
- Ruby Build for installing Rubies
- Ruby stable for writing general-purpose code
- Watch for periodically executing a program and displaying the output
It should take less than 15 minutes to install (depends on your machine).
Put your customizations in ~/.laptop.local. For example, your
~/.laptop.local might look like this:
#!/bin/sh
brew tap phinze/homebrew-cask
brew install brew-cask
brew cask install dropbox
brew cask install google-chrome
brew cask install rdio
