1. Install Ruby that is greater or equal to 2.4.0, this will install "DevKit" that developers refer to:
https://rubyinstaller.org/downloads/
*** If you come across any issues and search online, be mindful that when recommended to '$ ruby dk.rb init' they are referring to an older version of Ruby than 2.4.0 ***
2. As of this writing there is bug in ridk ( https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller2/issues/101 ). So after Ruby install, restart CLI and execute:
$ ridk exec pacman -Syu --needed --noconfirm --ask 20
$ ridk install 2 3
3. Unable to run Jekyll following GitHub instructions ( bundle exec jekyll _3.3.0_ new NEW-JEKYLL-SITE-REPOSITORY-NAME ), so use the following instead:
$ jekyll new marckassay.github.io -f
4. Overwrite generated Gemfile from step 3, with the following:
source "https://rubygems.org"
# Hello! This is where you manage which Jekyll version is used to run.
# When you want to use a different version, change it below, save the
# file and run `bundle install`. Run Jekyll with `bundle exec`, like so:
#
# bundle exec jekyll serve
#
# This will help ensure the proper Jekyll version is running.
# Happy Jekylling!
# gem "jekyll", "~> 3.3.0"
# This is the default theme for new Jekyll sites. You may change this to anything you like.
gem "minima", "~> 2.0"
# If you want to use GitHub Pages, remove the "gem "jekyll"" above and
# uncomment the line below. To upgrade, run `bundle update github-pages`.
gem "github-pages", group: :jekyll_plugins
# If you have any plugins, put them here!
group :jekyll_plugins do
gem "jekyll-feed", "~> 0.6"
end
# Windows does not include zoneinfo files, so bundle the tzinfo-data gem
gem 'tzinfo-data', platforms: [:mingw, :mswin, :x64_mingw, :jruby]
5. Execute the following:
$ bundle install
$ bundle update github-pages
$ jekyll serve
