Biogem.info is a middleman generated website. It comes with a number of scripts and rake tasks which generate the information displayed on the site in YAML format (usually to STDOUT).
You will need libxml support, e.g.
apt-get install libxslt-dev libxml2-dev
Install Ruby with openssl support
rvm pkg install openssl rvm pkg install iconv rvm remove 1.9.2 rvm install 1.9.2 -C --with-openssl-dir=$HOME/.rvm/usr,--with-iconv-dir=$HOME/.rvm/usr
Checkout the source code and run bundler. See also the create_data.sh.
bundle update
To run the cucumber tests
bundle exec cucumber features/
To run a 'quick' test run
bundle exec rake -- --test
which will generate the site with just a few biogems. Next run
bundle exec middleman server
If you get an error
./bin/fetch-geminfo.rb:163:in block in <main>': undefined method authors'
run the script with 'bundle exec' prepended.
