Diakonos
 
========
 
 
INSTALLATION
============
 
There are three ways to install Ruby:
  * by rubygems (recommended)
  * from the tarball using setup.rb
  * manual file copy
 
=== Installing via Rubygems ===
 
Since version 0.8.3, this is the recommended way of installing Diakonos.
Run the following command as a user with appropriate permissions:
 
  gem install diakonos
 
=== Installing from tarball using setup.rb ===
 
First obtain the diakonos tarball. This can be found at
http://purepistos.net/diakonos . Unpack the tarball somewhere.
cd into the unpacked directory.
 
To install, run
 
  ruby setup.rb
 
If you want to set options like the installation directories:
 
  ruby setup.rb --help
 
By default, the installer copies bin/diakonos into a system-wide bin directory,
such as /usr/bin; and copies lib/* into the system-wide ruby library path,
such as /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8 . You may need root priveleges on the
system in order to install to system-wide places like /usr/bin .
 
=== Installing from tarball by manual copy ===
 
First obtain the diakonos tarball. This can be found at
http://purepistos.net/diakonos .
 
To manually install, copy the contents of the lib directory into some place
where Ruby searches for libraries. The bin/diakonos program can be run from
anywhere, such as ~/bin/ or /usr/local/bin/.
