Prerequisites

Do you have experience working with GitHub and Ruby? The following instructions assume that you:

  • Have an up-to-date Ruby environment configured on your computer.
  • Have a GitHub account.
  • Have Github installed on your computer.
  • Are comfortable working with remote GitHub repositories.

Installing Ruby Racko Using GitHub

To install Ruby Racko using GitHub:

  1. Fork the repository.
  2. Create a clone of this forked repo on your local machine.

After cloning the repo, you can run Ruby Racko by navigating to the repo's master branch and entering ruby playRacko.rb into the terminal.

Detailed Installation Instructions

1. Fork the Repository

Log in to GitHub and navigate to the Ruby Racko repository.

Click on the "fork" button near the top right corner of the page.

You should now see a version of Ruby Racko in your personal list of repositories.

2. Create a Local Clone of the Fork

Navigate to your forked version of Ruby Racko on GitHub.

Click the "Clone or Download" button near the top of the page.

Copy the HTTPS url.

Open up the terminal on your computer and cd into the folder where you want Ruby Racko to live.

Clone the repository by entering git clone COPIED_URL into the terminal. Where you see "COPIED_URL", you should paste the url that you copied from GitHub.

This command creates a new folder named racko that houses your new git repo.

You're done!

Playing Ruby Racko

Enter the folder that holds your new Ruby Racko repo by typing cd racko into the terminal.

Enter ls. You should see, among other files, a Ruby file named "playRacko.rb".

Assuming you have Ruby installed on your machine, you can run Ruby Racko by using ruby playRacko.rb at this location.

Have fun!
