Is it possible to run Ruby and Rails on Mac OS X off of a local folder (without local or system install using RVM, Homebrew, etc.)
Similar to the way one can copy/paste Java installation directory and just run off of it with no dependencies, I'd like to do the same with Ruby/Rails.
The goal is to be able to connect a USB drive to someone's Mac OS X, open terminal, and demo an application (execute "rails server" from the mounted USB drive) without having to install/compile anything.
Possible?
Yes it is possible. It will take some work though since you don't know what environment you will be plugging that USB drive into. I would suggest starting with this thread from Stack Overflow. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/452175/is-there-a-self-contained-ruby-and-rails-solution-that-can-be-run-from-a-flash
