macOS High Sierra installation

This is what I get using "sudo gem install dandelion":

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing dandelion:

Is there something extra I need to do?

Thank you.

Looks like you're missing the Ruby development headers on your system. I believe for OS X these come bundled in an Xcode package called "command line tools". You should try installing those first.

Thank you Scott.

I just downloaded and install them again, then brew, then pkg-config and cmake and this is what I get:

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
Successfully installed rugged-0.23.3
Fetching: dandelion-0.5.0.gem (100%)
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
    You don't have write permissions for the /usr/bin directory.

This is using "sudo gem install dandelion".

Any idea how to make it work ?

[scttnlsn]

Check the permissions of /usr/bin. Did you remove all write permissions from this directory? Make sure that root can write a file there.

If you don't want to use your system Ruby then I can highly recommend https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv You can install isolated Ruby versions without needing sudo.

[peterolle]

I did not change any permissions, I only did the brew, pkg-config and cmake installation. Nothing else.

Here are the permissions in usr:

drwxr-xr-x@  10 root  wheel    320 26 jul 18:20 .
drwxr-xr-x@  32 root  wheel   1024 24 jul 19:50 ..

Thank you.

It seems System Integrity Protection in macOS will prevent this for working, I installed it in /usr/local/bin with no problems.

I'll continue testing to see if everything works and if something comes up I will update this.

[peterolle]

Not working, I just tried a first deploy and this is what I get:

Any idea how to fix it ?

Looks like you have a syntax error in your dandelion.yml file

[scttnlsn]

Did you resolve this? Please re-open if you still believe there's an issue with Dandelion that needs to be addressed. Thanks!

[peterolle]

Resolved, thank you. By some reason tabs instead of spaces were not working in the dandelion.yml file.

All good now, thanks again.

[scttnlsn]

Great! Yeah, no tabs allowed in YAML as far as I know.
