post	Setting up Octopress	2014-11-22 01:20:42 +0100	true

Objective

To set up Octopress in its own, isolated Ruby environment

Install rbenv to manage Ruby virtual environments.

Create isolated environment:

$ export GEM_HOME=$HOME/octopress.gems
$ gem install bundler
$ export PATH=$GEM_HOME/bin:$PATH

GEM_HOME and PATH need to be set to do any Octopress work.

Clone Octopress:

$ git clone git://github.com/imathis/octopress.git octopress
$ cd octopress

Install dependencies and default theme:

$ bundle install
$ rake install

⚠️ If --path is passed to bundle install, the value is cached in .bundle/config, and $GEM_HOME is subsequently ignored.
