A pure Ruby text editor running on JRuby.
You must have Java installed.
$ sudo gem install redcar
$ sudo redcar install
NB the install will take a minute or so to complete as it has to download about 15MB of jar files.
Run
$ redcar --help
for a list of options.
If you want to contribute to Redcar, you can install it from the source code.
If you're running Windows, as a prerequisite, you'll need to install the rubyzip gem:
$ gem install rubyzip
Download from github, checkout the submodules and build JavaMateView. You will need Ant installed, and RSpec and Cucumber installed as JRuby gems.
$ git clone git://github.com/danlucraft/redcar.git
$ cd redcar
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update
$ jruby bin/redcar install
$ jruby -S rake build
To run on Linux and Windows:
$ jruby bin/redcar
To run on OSX:
$ jruby -J-XstartOnFirstThread bin/redcar
You may also need to install the rake, rspec and cucumber gems.
If you are running a source version of Redcar and you have pulled changes from master, then you may have to update your jars by updating and rebuilding:
$ git submodule update $ jruby -S rake build
- Irc at #redcar on irc.freenode.net
- Mailing list at http://groups.google.com/group/redcar-editor
To run all specs and features:
$ jruby -S rake
NB. Features work with Cucumber version 0.4.2, you may have problems with other versions because for the moment we are patching Cucumber dynamically to support dependencies between sets of features.
On OSX:
$ jruby -J-XstartOnFirstThread -S spec plugins/#{plugin_name}/spec/
On Linux:
$ jruby -S spec plugins/#{plugin_name}/spec/
On OSX:
$ jruby -J-XstartOnFirstThread bin/cucumber plugins/#{plugin_name}/features
On Linux:
$ jruby bin/cucumber plugins/#{plugin_name}/features/
