Installing Ruby with RVM on Alpine Linux

Installing Ruby with RVM on Alpine Linux

For some on-going projects I need to switch to different versions of ruby. Although there exist many step-by-step instructions on installing and configuring rvm for most Linux distros, there aren't many focused on Alpine "daily drivers".

-

So this post is more or less a helpful document for my future self. If it happens to help others then that's an added bonus!

Simple Setup

Make sure you have the basic packages first:

+ 
apk update
 apk add curl gcc gnupg gpg dirmngr procps musl-dev linux-headers zlib zlib-dev openssl openssl-dev libssl1.1

Next download the latest stable version of rvm from Github, unpack it, place it in the proper user directory (~/.rvm) and install any required libs:

-
curl -sSL https://github.com/rvm/rvm/tarball/stable -o rvm-stable.tar.gz
-echo 'export rvm_prefix="$HOME"' > ~/.rvmrc
-echo 'export rvm_path="$HOME/.rvm"' >> ~/.rvmrc
-mkdir rvm && cd rvm
-tar --strip-components=1 -xzf ../rvm-stable.tar.gz
-./install --auto-dotfiles --autolibs=0

+mkdir rvm && cd rvm
+tar --strip-components=1 -xzf ../rvm-stable.tar.gz
+./install --auto-dotfiles --autolibs=0
 

+
 
Now we can remove everything and properly link to rvm:

-
cd ../ && rm -rf rvm-stable stable.tar.gz rvm
-source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm
+
+
cd ../ && rm -rf rvm-stable stable.tar.gz rvm
+source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm
 

+
 
Now you can freely install any version of Ruby that you desire!

+
 
rvm install ruby-X.X.X
