Why won't Middleman include the rb-inotify and

I have:

$ ruby -v
ruby 1.9.2p290 (2011-07-09 revision 32553) [i686-linux]
$ middleman version
Middleman 2.0.13.1
$ cat /etc/debian_version 
6.0.3

if I start a project like so:

$ middleman init np --rack --bundler --template=html5 
      create  np/config.ru
      create  np/Gemfile
         run  bundle install

Bye bye...

despite that:

$ gem list | grep racer
therubyracer (0.9.8)

$ gem list | grep inotify
rb-inotify (0.8.8)

I followed the RVM Installation Guide and the Middleman Getting Started. Any ideas why Middleman would fail to start a server?

回答1:

It seems that middleman server users a sandbox based solely on the Gemfile. If you've installed the gems globally, they'll not be present at runtime in the sandbox. The original Gemfile created by middleman init looks like:

source "http://rubygems.org"
gem "middleman", "~>2.0.13.1"

edit this to be:

source "http://rubygems.org"

gem "middleman", "~>2.0.13.1"
gem "rb-inotify"
gem "therubyracer"

You could be less lazy and parameterize this by Operating System, if you like.

回答2:

If you remove the Gemfile.lock file and then run in your root directory

bundle install --binstubs ./bin --path vendor/bundle

the bundle will install all the packages locally (and all the executables to start things up in ./bin )

You can also if it helps, try my template to get things started

This is the line you need to pay attention to

/home/blt/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/execjs-1.2.9/lib/execjs/runtimes.rb:47:in `autodetect': Could not find a JavaScript runtime. See https://github.com/sstephenson/execjs for a list of available runtimes. (ExecJS::RuntimeUnavailable)

Basically you need to install a js runtime like node js or v8 or something on your system so that execjs can work with it. Read this carefully
