page Installing Ruby with Rbenv July 31 2012 false false

Rbenv handles the installation and management of multiple Ruby environments. Ruby 1.9.3 is required for Octopress and using rbenv you can install it with ease.

Standard Rbenv Installation

The standard method for installing rbenv uses Git. From your terminal, run the following commands:

cd
git clone git://github.com/sstephenson/rbenv.git .rbenv
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
echo 'eval "$(rbenv init -)"' >> ~/.bash_profile
git clone git://github.com/sstephenson/ruby-build.git ~/.rbenv/plugins/ruby-build
source ~/.bash_profile

Zsh users: In the instructions above substitute ~/.bash_profile with ~/.zshenv.

Alternate Installation Using Homebrew

If you use Homebrew on Mac OS X you may prefer to install rbenv like this:

brew update
brew install rbenv
brew install ruby-build

Install Ruby 1.9.3

Next install Ruby 1.9.3 and you'll be all set.

rbenv install 1.9.3-p0
rbenv rehash

Run ruby --version to be sure you're using Ruby 1.9.3. If you're having trouble, seek help here
