Pho is a ruby gem for working with the Talis Platform written by a colleague at Talis, Leigh Dodds.
Having only just installed this on my home machine, I thought I would document how I did it ready for the next time. There is a good chance I did something wrong which meant that I had to install some extra dependencies for the talis_store script (which is what I wanted pho for), but I don’t know enough about ruby to say what.
$ sudo apt-get install ruby $ sudo apt-get install rubygems $ sudo apt-get install ruby1.8-dev $ sudo gem install pho
Then I wanted to find the executable talis_store because it wasn’t in my path.
$ sudo find / -name talis_store $ ln -s /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/talis_store ~/bin/talis_store
Then when running talis_store I had to work through an additional few unmet dependancies.
$ sudo gem install rdf $ sudo gem install rdf-json $ sudo gem install rdf-raptor
All done 🙂
