Install not working
Closed this issue · 6 comments
Hey Ian,
This is a sick app, very much something I'd use.
Unfortunately I can't get it installed. On my Ubuntu 12.04 I can neither find icu4u (maybe I need to add a source or something - I couldn't find anything with a quick search) or use gem install to install octodown.
Here's a ss of the issue.
Haha yeah I'm pretty excited about it! As of now I have only dialed in Mac
support, but Ubuntu is my next step. The main difference is that Ubuntu has
a different way of opening the browser.
That being said, would you help on getting that integration working? Even
if it's just testing that would be huge! I might work on it later tonight
but I will keep you posted as it comes along.
As far as the apt install goes, check the .travis.yml file for how to
install those packages. The app won't work yet but at least you will have
the dependencies.
Should probably do a better write up in the README as well.

Yeah man, I'd love to help out. Testing would be easiest as I really don't know much about ruby dev, but I can look into whatever for sure!
Thanks for the help, I'll look into that too.
@BrianNewsom I updated the README and pushed the first alpha version up. Will you run through things and tell me how the process goes? That would be so huge! 🤘
EDIT: as a heads up, to install you will have to use:
$ gem install octodown --pre
If you only have system Ruby installed, that would be:
$ sudo gem install octodown --pre
Yeah man, I ran through the process. It worked perfectly on the README! Great work.
EDIT: It worked from the command line as well, I initially posted that it didn't, but I was just being a dingus and wrote improper markdown.
Let me know what else you'd like to see.
Nice! That is great news. I'm going to clean some of the code up before the first release.
Please keep me posted on any thoughts you have, I want to make this thing as dialed as possible. I think for the next release I want to add live reload, etc.
Will do man. Live reload is definitely a huge one. I'll let you know what else I think of.
