### Install RVM
|
|
|
|
You need software-properties-common installed in order to add PPA repositories.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable
|
|
source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Install Ruby
|
|
|
|
Chatwoot APIs are built on Ruby on Rails, you need install ruby 2.7.1
|
|
|
|
If you are using `rvm` :
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
rvm install ruby-2.7.1
|
|
rvm use 2.7.1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you are using `rbenv` to manage ruby versions do :
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
rbenv install 2.7.1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`rbenv` identifies the ruby version from `.ruby-version` file on the root of the project and loads it automatically.
|
|
|
|
### Install Node.js

|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
brew install postgresql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The installation procedure created a user account called postgres that is associated with the default Postgres role. In order to use Postgres, you can log into that account.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo -u postgres psql
|

launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.redis.plist

|
|
|
|
```bash
