I'm currently stuck with the next step where I have to set PROCESSING_ROOT for Mac and can't locate the ~/.jruby_art folder. It's suppose to be in the home folder. I don't see jruby_art hidden in the home directory either.
Stuck here: → k9 --install WARN: you need to set PROCESSING_ROOT in ~/.jruby_art/config.yml.
When I open the path in the editor and try to save it, it says ~/.jruby_art/config.yml does not exist.
The gem files are installed here: ~/.rvm/gems/jruby-9.1.7.0/gems/jruby_art-1.3.3/lib/jruby_art
The config.rb file reads:
module Processing
unless defined? RP_CONFIG
config_path = '~/.jruby_art/config.yml'
begin
CONFIG_FILE_PATH = File.expand_path(config_path)
RP_CONFIG = YAML.load_file(CONFIG_FILE_PATH)
The config.rb file does give some indication the .yml file should be there in the home directory.
Any idea on if it's a path issue when trying to locate ~/.jruby_art/config.yml? Where could this file be? I installed Processing with Homebrew if that makes a difference on why I can't find the path to the file.
Thanks if anyone can shed some light.
Unless you have an old version, this leads me to believe the config should be generated for you when running k9 --install:
https://github.com/ruby-processing/JRubyArt#configuration
The error message you see is misleading as an exception will be raised if the config file doesn't exist or there's a parse error, rather than just missing PROCESSING_ROOT:
If you're on the latest version then I'd raise a Github issue.
For what it's worth, my OS X config is as follows although I installed this a few years back!
Horus:.jruby_art msp$ pwd
/Users/msp/.jruby_art
Horus:.jruby_art msp$ cat config.yml
PROCESSING_ROOT: /Applications/Processing.app/Contents/Java
