how to install ImageMagic AND RMagick on linux(fedora)

1st phase =>...............


I think yum will not work , So this is the technique to install ImageMagic first.


1st step: cd /usr/local/src

2nd step: wget http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/freetype/freetype-2.3.5.tar.gz

3rd step: tar xvzf freetype-2.3.5.tar.gz

4th step: freetype-2.3.5

5th step: ./configure

6th step: make

7th step: make install


now Image Magic has been install on your machine.


2nd phase =>...............


now we have to install RMagick


On fedora the full command for installing rmagick is:

1st try it=>

gem install rmagick

if it dose not work you can try it..

gem install rmagick — –build-flags –enable-allow-example-errors

OR

cd /usr/local/src

wget http://files.rubyforge.mmmultiworks.com/rmagick/RMagick-1.15.11.tar.gz

tar zxvf RMagick-1.15.11.tar.gz

cd RMagick-1.15.11

./configure

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH

make

make install



now Its time to test :

test Rmagick in Rails

root> ruby script/console

irb(main):001:0> require ‘RMagick’

irb(main):002:0> include Magick

=> Object

irb(main):003:0> img = ImageList.new “image.jpg”

=> [test.jpg JPEG 10x11 DirectClass 8-bit 391b]

irb(main):004:0> img.write “image.png”

=> [test.jpg=>test.png JPEG 10x11 DirectClass 8-bit]

irb(main):005:0>
