Gem vs Source

Ruby Apps Radiant CMS
1

I wanted to try out the newest Radiant, so I used gem, as prompted on
the rc2 page of the blog. When I run the radiant -d command, as noted
in step 3, I get a bastard rails directory, without app or lib or any
of the places where code can be written. How do I go about getting the
entire set of folders, such as you get when you simply download the
source and run it? Is there a radiant command that gives you a complete
ready to customize application?

Thanks in advance,

Walter

Nope. But you can unpack the gem once it is installed:

gem unpack radiant

The final release will also be available in Zip and Tar format.

gray:~ waltd$ gem unpack radiant
ERROR: While executing gem … (Gem::Exception)
Cannot load gem at
[/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/cache/radiant-0.6.0.gem]

Ditto if I use sudo. Any ideas?

I did a symlink to the filename it wanted, and got it to unpack – now,
where did it go?

Okay, got it to unpack, found it, and now none of the permissions or
much else seem to be right – all I get when I try to run it or rake it
is a bunch of permission errors. Much stumpage here.
