On a Mac OS X system (10.8.2), with these tools installed: Ruby, 1.9.3p362 (2012-12-25

On a Mac OS X system (10.8.2), with these tools installed:

  • Ruby, 1.9.3p362 (2012-12-25 revision 38607) [x86_64-darwin12.2.0], via brew
  • Bundler, 1.2.3 via gem install bundler
  • rake, 10.0.3 via gem install rake

It is not possible to build Ember from source. Below is the error log when running rake dist:

± ~/dev/ember.js (master ✓) ⚡ rake dist

From having a look at the Ember Data build instructions and discussion in #emberjs, it seems that you need to run bundle first. Doing so successfully installs a handful of bundles, though it prompts at the end for an admin password “to install the bundled RubyGems to your system”.

If you then run this command to see what gems are installed, you can see that one gem in particular refuses installation. Running bundle install as advised doesn’t address this problem.

± ~/dev/ember.js (master ✓) ⚡ bundle exec rake -T
https://github.com/pangratz/github_downloads.git (at master) is not checked out. Please run `bundle install`

A suggestion from Twitter was to run bundle rake dist. This produces:

± ~/dev/ember.js (master ✓) ⚡ bundle rake dist
Could not find task "rake".

And another for bundle exec rake dist:

± ~/dev/ember.js (master ✓) ⚡ bundle exec rake dist
https://github.com/pangratz/github_downloads.git (at master) is not checked out. Please run `bundle install`

Running bundle install at this point installs the list of gems but asks for an admin password at the end and reports success. One thought from #emberjs was that this means it’s installing gems into my system and not a sandboxed environment and that is the true problem here.

What can be done to overcome this bundle/rake error?

    Here’s a solution that worked for me:

    cd <your ember clone>
    curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby
    rvm install 1.9.3
    rvm use 1.9.3
    rvm rubygems latest
    bundle install
    rake dist
