This post is more for my own personal notes than anything else.</p> +<p>I find myself constantly running into small issues when trying to setup existing Jekyll projects on new Linux systems. I <em>could</em> use something like Docker, but that just seems so beefy and slow to me. So here is a step-by-step way (and foolproof from my own testing) to get Jekyll running smoothly in no time!</p> +<h2 id="figuring-out-ruby-first">Figuring out Ruby First</h2> +<p>The first item of business is removing the default Ruby that ships with most Linux distros:</p> +<pre><code>sudo apt-get remove ruby +</code></pre> +<p>Then we check for updates and install everything we need:</p> +<pre><code>sudo apt update +sudo apt install git curl libssl-dev libreadline-dev zlib1g-dev autoconf bison build-essential libyaml-dev libreadline-dev libncurses5-dev libffi-dev libgdbm-dev +</code></pre> +<p>Now we can install <code>rbenv</code> and <code>ruby-build</code>:</p> +<pre><code>curl -sL https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv-installer/raw/main/bin/rbenv-installer | bash - +</code></pre> +<p>After both of those install, you will want to add those to your system <strong>PATH</strong>:</p> +<h3 id="bash">Bash</h3> +<pre><code>echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc +echo 'eval "$(rbenv init -)"' >> ~/.bashrc +source ~/.bashrc +</code></pre> +<h3 id="zsh">ZSH</h3> +<pre><code>echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc +echo 'eval "$(rbenv init -)"' >> ~/.zshrc +source ~/.zshrc +</code></pre> +<p>With that complete, we can now install the version of Ruby we wish to use and set it globally (at this time of writing it is <code>3.1.2</code>):</p> +<pre><code>rbenv install 3.1.2 +rbenv global 3.1.2 +</code></pre> +<p>And <code>rehash</code> so our changes take:</p> +<pre><code>rbenv rehash +</code></pre> +<p>Now you should see the properly set Ruby version when you run the following:</p> +<pre><code>ruby -v +</code></pre> +<h2 id="getting-ruby-gems">Getting Ruby Gems</h2> +<p>In case you don’t have it installed already, be sure to grab <code>rubygems</code>:</p> +<pre><code>sudo apt install rubygems +</code></pre> +<h2 id="running-jekyll">Running Jekyll</h2> +<p>We are almost done! Navigate to your Jekyll project’s directory and run:</p> +<pre><code>gem install jekyll bundler +bundle install +</code></pre> +<p>That’s it! Now if you run <code>bundle exec jekyll serve</code> you’ll find your Jekyll project running locally! Hopefully this helps others when needing to port any Jekyll projects over to a new Linux system.
