Installation

Requirements

(Non-Standard) Ruby Library Dependencies

If you use RubyGems, appropriate versions will be installed by the gem’s dependencies. Otherwise, you’ll need to build and install these by hand:

  • ruby-cache >= 0.3.0

  • formvalidator >= 0.1.4

  • pluginfactory >= 1.0.4

Installing From Source

If you wish to install Arrow as a conventional library from the source:

$ rake install

The install task will check for dependencies, install the libraries, and then offer some advice about how to configure your server.
