This guide assumes that you can work your way around a command line. Specific instructions are written for bash (the default shell on OS X), but should be easy to apply to other shells too.
Make sure /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin are in your PATH ahead of
/usr/bin. You can check with echo $PATH. If they are not, add this line to
~/.bash_profile:
export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:~/bin:$PATH"
Next, install homebrew, if you haven't already.
Add this to ~/.bash_profile:
# Add gem binaries to path. (See 'brew info ruby')
export PATH=$(brew --prefix ruby)/bin:$PATH
System dependencies:
brew update
brew upgrade ruby redis mysql libxml2
gem pristine --all --only-executables
