Omnibus-ruby is a tool developed by Chef for building packages of Ruby applications. Here's how you can install it on NetBSD.
Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
The first step in installing omnibus-ruby is to install the dependencies required to build and run it. Open a terminal and enter the following command to install the necessary packages:
pkgin update && pkgin install gcc openssl libyaml libffi pkg-config readline
Next, you need to download the omnibus-ruby source code from GitHub. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:
git clone https://github.com/chef/omnibus.git
After downloading the source code, you need to build omnibus-ruby using the following commands:
cd omnibus
bundle install --path vendor/bundle
bundle exec omnibus build omnibus-ruby
This will build the omnibus-ruby package and save it to the pkg directory of the omnibus-ruby source code.
To install the package, run the following command:
pkg_add pkg/omnibus-ruby-VERSION.tgz
Replace VERSION with the version number of the package you just built.
Finally, you can verify that omnibus-ruby has been installed correctly by running the following command:
omnibus-ruby -v
This should print the version of Ruby that has been installed by omnibus-ruby.
That's it! You've successfully installed omnibus-ruby on NetBSD. You can now use it to build Ruby applications and packages on your NetBSD system.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
