What is Ruby on Rails? :
Ruby on Rails, or Rails, is a server-side web application framework written in Ruby under the MIT License. Rails is a MVC (Model-View-Controller) framework, providing default structures for a database, a web service, and web pages. (Courtesy: Wikipedia)
Ruby on Rails encourages and facilitates the use of web standards such as JSON and XML for data transfer; HTML, CSS and JavaScript for user interfacing.
Environment Specification:
We are using a CentOS 8 based virtual machine with following specifications.
- CPU - 3.4 Ghz (2 cores)
- Memory - 2 GB
- Storage - 20 GB
- Operating System - CentOS 8.0
- Hostname – ruby-on-rails.centlinux.com
- IP Address - 192.168.116.224 /24
Update CentOS 8 Software Packages:
Connect with ruby-on-rails.centlinux.com as root user by using an SSH tool.
Before starting any installation, it is a good practice to update your Linux distribution to the latest software packages.
In CentOS, the software packages are uploaded in online yum repositories as soon as they got updated. Therefore, we can easily update our CentOS 8 server by using a single dnf command.
[root@ruby-on-rails ~]# yum update
...
Installed:
kernel-4.18.0-147.8.1.el8_1.x86_64
kernel-core-4.18.0-147.8.1.el8_1.x86_64
kernel-modules-4.18.0-147.8.1.el8_1.x86_64
Removed:
kernel-4.18.0-80.el8.x86_64 kernel-core-4.18.0-80.el8.x86_64
kernel-modules-4.18.0-80.el8.x86_64
Complete!
Since, we frequently update our Linux distros, therefore, only a few packages are updated this time.
Install Ruby on Rails Prerequisites on CentOS 8:
Ruby on Rails requires some software packages. However, most of the dependencies are automatically resolved by the RVM (Ruby Version Manager) but there are some software packages that we have to install manually.
The first dependency of Ruby on Rails is Git. Git is available in standard yum repository, therefore we can install git on CentOS 8 as follows.
[root@ruby-on-rails ~]# dnf install -y git
...

Some components of Ruby on Rails requires Node.js, therefore, we are also need to install it.
Node.js is not available in standard yum repositories. However, Node.js can be installed from NodeSource yum repository.
Add NodeSource yum repository in CentOS 8 server.
[root@ruby-on-rails ~]# curl -sL https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | bash -
## Installing the NodeSource Node.js 12.x repo...
## Inspecting system...
+ rpm -q --whatprovides redhat-release || rpm -q --whatprovides centos-release || rpm -q --whatprovides cloudlinux-release || rpm -q --whatprovides sl-release
+ uname -m
## Confirming "el8-x86_64" is supported...
+ curl -sLf -o /dev/null 'https://rpm.nodesource.com/pub_12.x/el/8/x86_64/nodesource-release-el8-1.noarch.rpm'
## As yum will try to install Node.js from the AppStream repository
instead of the NodeSource repository, the AppStream's version of Node.js has to be disabled.
## Run `sudo yum module enable -y nodejs` to reactivate the AppStream's Node.js repository.
+ yum module disable -y nodejs

## Run `sudo yum install -y nodejs` to install Node.js 12.x and npm.
## You may also need development tools to build native addons:
sudo yum install gcc-c++ make
## To install the Yarn package manager, run:
curl -sL https://dl.yarnpkg.com/rpm/yarn.repo | sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/yarn.repo
sudo yum install yarn
Now, we can install Node.js on CentOS 8 with dnf command.
[root@ruby-on-rails ~]# dnf install -y nodejs

Besides Node.js, Ruby on Rails also required YARN (Package Manager). YARN is also provided by its official yum repository. Therefore, we are adding the YARN yum repository in CentOS 8.
[root@ruby-on-rails ~]# curl -sL https://dl.yarnpkg.com/rpm/yarn.repo | tee /etc/yum.repos.d/yarn.repo
[yarn]
name=Yarn Repository
baseurl=https://dl.yarnpkg.com/rpm/

gpgkey=https://dl.yarnpkg.com/rpm/pubkey.gpg
Now, we can easily install yarn using dnf command.

Configure MariaDB server and set root user password using following command.
[root@ruby-on-rails ~]# mysql_secure_installation
NOTE: RUNNING ALL PARTS OF THIS SCRIPT IS RECOMMENDED FOR ALL MariaDB
SERVERS IN PRODUCTION USE! PLEASE READ EACH STEP CAREFULLY!
In order to log into MariaDB to secure it, we'll need the current
password for the root user. If you've just installed MariaDB, and
you haven't set the root password yet, the password will be blank,
so you should just press enter here.
Enter current password for root (enter for none):
OK, successfully used password, moving on...
Setting the root password ensures that nobody can log into the MariaDB
root user without the proper authorisation.
Set root password? [Y/n] Y
New password:
Re-enter new password:
Password updated successfully!
Reloading privilege tables..
... Success!
By default, a MariaDB installation has an anonymous user, allowing anyone
to log into MariaDB without having to have a user account created for
them. This is intended only for testing, and to make the installation
go a bit smoother. You should remove them before moving into a
production environment.
Remove anonymous users? [Y/n] Y
... Success!
Normally, root should only be allowed to connect from 'localhost'. This
ensures that someone cannot guess at the root password from the network.
Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n] Y
... Success!
By default, MariaDB comes with a database named 'test' that anyone can
access. This is also intended only for testing, and should be removed
before moving into a production environment.
Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n] Y
- Dropping test database...
... Success!
- Removing privileges on test database...
... Success!
Reloading the privilege tables will ensure that all changes made so far
will take effect immediately.
Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n] Y
... Success!
Cleaning up...
All done! If you've completed all of the above steps, your MariaDB
installation should now be secure.
Thanks for using MariaDB!
We have successfully installed MariaDB Server on CentOS 8.
Install RVM on CentOS 8:
RVM (Ruby Version Manager) is a command line tool that allows you to easily install, manage work with multiple Ruby environments from interpreter to set of gems.
We are installing RVM on CentOS 8 and later we will install Ruby by using RVM commandline.
RVM is available in its official yum repository. Therefore, we need to add the RVM yum repository in CentOS 8.
Before adding RVM yum repository, we are required to add the GPG key for the RVM repo as follows.
[root@ruby-on-rails ~]# gpg --keyserver hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys 409B6B1796C275462A1703113804BB82D39DC0E3 7D2BAF1CF37B13E2069D6956105BD0E739499BDB

gpg: no ultimately trusted keys found
gpg: Total number processed: 2

If you face problem installing the GPG key, then you should refer to RVM official website.
Now, we can install RVM as follows.

Creating group 'rvm'
Installing RVM to /usr/local/rvm/
Installation of RVM in /usr/local/rvm/ is almost complete:
* First you need to add all users that will be using rvm to 'rvm' group,
and logout - login again, anyone using rvm will be operating with `umask u=rwx,g=rwx,o=rx`.
* To start using RVM you need to run `source /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh`
in all your open shell windows, in rare cases you need to reopen all shell windows.
* Please do NOT forget to add your users to the rvm group.
The installer no longer auto-adds root or users to the rvm group. Admins must do this.
Also, please note that group memberships are ONLY evaluated at login time.
This means that users must log out then back in before group membership takes effect!
Thanks for installing RVM ð
Please consider donating to our open collective to help us maintain RVM.

However, we can also install latest stable Ruby and Rails along with the RVM. But we are installing each component separately for the sake of demonstration.
RVM environment script has been copied to /etc/profile.d/ directory. To set the RVM environment for the current session, we need to execute it once.
[root@ruby-on-rails ~]# source /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh

By using RVM, we can install multiple Ruby environments on the same platform. Therefore, we need to set a default version in use.

HEADS UP! i18n 1.1 changed fallbacks to exclude default locale.
But that may break your application.
If you are upgrading your Rails application from an older version of Rails:
Please check your Rails app for 'config.i18n.fallbacks = true'.
If you're using I18n (>= 1.1.0) and Rails (< 5.2.2), this should be
'config.i18n.fallbacks = [I18n.default_locale]'.
If not, fallbacks will be broken in your app by I18n 1.1.x.
If you are starting a NEW Rails application, you can ignore this notice.
For more info see:
