0. have Homebrew install
see https://brew.sh for instructions
0. have Ruby installed in some form
I suggest rbenv
1. download Anaconda from https://www.anaconda.com/downloads
2. install โ๏ธ (VS Code is optional, feel free to skip it)
3. set -g fish_user_paths /anaconda3/bin/ $fish_user_paths
4. test with jupyter notebook
- it should open a browser window to the working directory
- the next steps will add a "Ruby" option to the "New > Notebook" menu (up right)
5. install iRuby
instructions adapted from https://github.com/sciruby/iruby#homebrew
brew install automake gmp libtool wget
brew install zeromq --HEAD
brew install czmq --HEAD
set -x LIBZMQ_PATH (brew --prefix zeromq)/lib
set -x LIBCZMQ_PATH (brew --prefix czmq)/lib
gem install cztop
gem install iruby --pre
iruby register --force

Hi, I'm using Bash. Followed instructions but I keep getting
-bash: iruby: command not found
. All other commands were successful. Any idea? Would really like to get to use Ruby on Jupyter Notebook!Hi Perry, how did step 5 play out? After
gem install iruby
, did you have airuby
executable in your PATH?I'm not sure how to place it into my PATH. the
set -x
commands also did not work --bash: syntax error near unexpected token
('`Ah, yes. Thatโs fish-specific. For bash,
export PATH /anaconda/bin $PATH
. You will probably have to add this to your~/.profile
in order to persist between sessions.If I'm on Mac and did not use anaconda, how should this command look?
Oh, and the other
set -x
commands on step 5 have to be replaced withOh, Iโm not sure thisโll work without anaconda installed. I wrote these instructions while installing it on a Mac too.
got it, thanks
Hi,
After executing
set -x LIBZMQ_PATH (brew --prefix zeromq)/lib
the terminal says:
zsh: no matches found: (brew --prefix zeromq)/lib
Does anyone know how to fix that? Thanks
