You need a MySQL server with utf8mb4
support.
If you have issues, try adding this to your my.cnf
:
[mysqld]
character-set-client-handshake = FALSE
character-set-server = utf8mb4
collation-server = utf8mb4_unicode_ci
The rest should be a default rails installation:
bundle
rake db:setup
rails s
Note: We currently use rails 4-2-stable because it has backported support for utf8mb4
.
