Rake is a software build tool that is written in Ruby, and it is commonly used for building and maintaining software projects written in Ruby. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Rake on Debian Latest, using the latest version available on GitHub.
Before installing any new software, always make sure to update your package manager to ensure that the latest updates and security patches are installed. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt-get update
Rake is a Ruby gem, so you will need to have Ruby and Rubygems installed in order to install Rake. Run the following command to install Ruby and Rubygems:
sudo apt-get install ruby rubygems
Now that Ruby and Rubygems are installed, you can install Rake using the following command:
sudo gem install rake
This will download and install the latest version of Rake from the GitHub repository.
To verify that Rake has been installed successfully, run the following command:
rake --version
This should display the version of Rake that you have installed on your system.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Rake on Debian Latest. Now you can use Rake to build and maintain software projects written in Ruby with ease.
