Trying to set up the sample project following the instructions found on the project page for Dashing. When starting up using the command: $ dashing start, nothing happens, no errors, no output, nothing.

I have not install rails and its not mentioned as a requirement in the instructions, but is it needed for Dashing to run?

Any ideas how to trace this, or what might be wrong here?

Thanks!

You can test if the dashing gem is working, by following the steps outlined on this page:

  1. gem install dashing
  2. dashing new sweet_dashboard_project
  3. bundle
  4. dashing start

I tried the above steps before posting this as an answer, and everything seems to work nicely. However, I needed to comment everything inside jobs/twitter.rb file (you can, alternatively, add your twitter API credentials to that file)

  • Something must have gone wrong before during the bundle step. When I re-run it, this error occurred: _An error occurred while installing memoizable (0.2.0), and Bundler cannot continue._ Installing memoizable went ok, but now **dashing start** throws an error: _C:/Ruby200/lib/ruby/gems/2.0.0/gems/backports-3.3.5/lib/backports/tools.rb:328:in `require': cannot load such file -- 2.0/ruby_http_parser_ (LoadError) ..._ – user955732 Nov 19 '13 at 20:18
