Running Merb on Edge

The easiest way to run Merb from edge:

$ sudo gem install sake
$ sake -i http://github.com/wycats/merb-more/tree/master%2Ftools%2Fmerb-dev.rake?raw=true
$ sake merb:clone
$ sake merb:install:all

This will install the edge versions of all of the merb gems.

To keep things up to date, navigate to the directory that you ran the commands in and do:

$ sake merb:update
$ sake merb:install:all
  • @steven: Is the sake command in your path?

    @michael: put dependency "merb-mailer" in your init.rb and it will use the gem.
  • Michael Johnston
    If I have followed this procedure, and if I want to install the edge version of a plugin (specifically merb-mailer) into my app, how can I do it?
  • steven
    yes, the first one installed sake successfully.
  • @steven: Did the first command complete correctly? That should install the 'sake' command that the rest of the commands use.
  • steven
    the second command (sake...) shows this-
    bash: sake: command not found
