So, I"m using intellij idea community addition for ruby on rails development. I installed intellij, ruby, etc. on my computer. However, when I try to install the ruby on rails plugin in intellij after clicking on opening the plugin manager and clicking "install intellij plugins" there is no plugin from the list which is called "ruby plugin." I tried several of the plugins from this website :https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/1293?pr=
....selecting the "install from disk" option. None of them worked.
help please.
Ruby development is only supported in IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate, not in the Community Edition.

Searching on the jetbrains website, I came up with this: https://www.jetbrains.com/ruby/help/configuring-ruby-sdk.html. However, I don't have the Ruby SDK pane. I have set the project to have the Project SDK for the version of Ruby installed, the Modules->Dependencies has the version of Ruby selected, but each time the project loads, it prompts me to set the framework to JRuby. It's not a JRuby project. Granted, I don't have RubyMine, but I thought that that was the purpose of Ultimate, to be an all-in-one.
Maybe a late response, but here's answer anyway. I stumbled upon the same issue while evaluating the Ultimate version.
To fix the "JRuby on Rails framework detected" issue, just create a new project "from existing sources". Follow the steps in the wizard and "Ruby on Rails" framework will be detected correctly - no more JRuby...
Hope it helps!
I have recently installed the Aptana plugin for Eclipse as I wish to learn Ruby and Ruby on Rails, it doesn't seem to have changed anything. Usually when I install a plugin of the sort, there will be new project types under the "New Project" menu, but none appeared. I checked tutorials online and they suggest that there should be new project types as seen in the image below, taken from a tutorial.
Instead, I see the same options I did before.
I wondered if the plugin didn't install, but when I try to install it again, It says it's already installed. I am using Eclipse Juno Service Release 2 with a 64-bit Windows 7 operating system and the version of the plugin from the URL given on the Aptana website (http://download.aptana.com/studio3/plugin/install). Any help would be much appreciated.
I don't know why that's happening. Here's a suggestion for how to get around it.
You might be better off installing and running the standalone Aptana Studio product. It would be a separate installation on your desktop, and thus wouldn't have the same settings as any Eclipse installation you already had, and would be more space on your hard drive. But probably there isn't much you would share between Ruby/Rails development and other development, and it's not that much space.
I've done it both ways - installed Aptana into an Eclipse I've already got, and installed the standalone version - and now I would only do standalone.
I don't know what was wrong in the first place, but after I installed the Aptana plugin, I installed the PyDev plugin. I think this removed the Aptana plugin because of conflicting dependencies (I don't know why it wouldn't tell me, though). I tried installing the Aptana plugin again and it told me there was a conflicting dependency with the PyDev plugin, so I uninstalled it and reinstalled the Aptana plugin. It works now.
I thought I'd give Grails and IntelliJ a look. However, I'm struggling at the first hurdle.
When I go to select the "Groovy SDK" I'm choosing my installation directory - in this case, Grails 2.2.0 - but the OK button on the IDE stays grayed-out. If I choose another of my installation directories - Grails 1.3.7 - the OK button is activated but I get an error message saying my groovy installation is broken.
Does anyone know what I'm missing?
I'm using IntelliJ 12 Community Edition and trying to use Grails 2.2.0.
Thanks.
Please checkout this IntelliJ IDEA Features page, and you will see that some web technologies, like Grails, are only supported in the Ultimate Edition. I would recommend upgrading to the Ultimate Edition, since it has excellent Grails support.
As an alternative, use can use a free IDE which has Grails support: STS, GGTS.
Community Edition doesn't support Grails development. Note that it is asking for a Groovy SDK (which is supported), not a Grails SDK.
Does IDEA support all the features of rubymine, or is rubymine more refined for rails and IDEA doesn't have all the rubymine features?
The Ruby plugin does include all the features of RubyMine, although the latest version of the Ruby plugin usually requires EAP builds of IntelliJ IDEA. (At the moment, the version of the Ruby plugin for IntelliJ IDEA 9.0.3 does not include all of the new features of RubyMine 2.5 - only the version of the plugin for IntelliJ IDEA X EAP does.)
RubyMine also has a simplified project configuration UI that works better for Rails projects.
how to configure netbeans for ruby on rails ?
Update: Netbeans has dropped support for ruby, unfortunately.
The netbeans documentation has sections on that matter:
http://netbeans.org/kb/docs/ruby/setting-up.html
http://netbeans.org/kb/docs/ruby/rails-quickstart.html
Additional info. On Apache NetBeans IDE 11.1 it will work!! (latest version as of 2019)
You need to get a copy of org-jdesktop-layout-RELEASE82.nbm and install it first.
I found it in this directory on the bits.netbeans.org release site:
http://bits.netbeans.org/nexus/content/groups/netbeans/org/netbeans/api/org-jdesktop-layout/RELEASE82/
After it is installed, follow the directions above from Marcos Riveros and you should be good to go.
Google suggests:

Currently, if you download Netbeans 7.0.1 (not the latest), you can use Tools->Plugins to open the Plugins window. Click on "Available Plugins" and search for "Ruby on Rails". Select it, and click install.
Unfortunately, the current version of Netbeans, 7.1, will not offer the Ruby on Rails plugin to you on the Available Plugins tab. The following blog post gives some hope that it will eventually be there:
http://blog.enebo.com/2012/01/workaround-for-ruby-support-on-netbeans.html
In the meantime, use 7.0.1.
Try install plugins manually:
1. Download and unzip the plugins for you netbeans http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/38549/ruby-and-rails
2. Click to tools->plugings->Downloaded, add path-to-pluging-downloaded.
Firts install the jar plugins (org-jruby-jruby.jar) and second install the pluging *.nbm.
