Software Setup Instructions
You may download a pre-packaged version:
Download Glimmer Metronome 1.1.3 DMG for Mac (ARM64 Ventura and Older)
Download Glimmer Metronome 1.1.4 DMG for Mac (x64 Catalina and Older)
Alternatively, if you are a software engineer and would like to install this application as a Ruby gem, you may follow these instructions:
- Ensure you have Glimmer DSL for SWT 4.22.2.1 prerequisites setup (like JDK and JRuby).
- Install gem via
gem install glimmer_metronome -v1.1.4
command - Run
glimmer_metronome
command to start application
Lastly, you can package a native executable for your specific system (e.g. produce MSI/EXE file on Windows 10 x64) by following these instructions instead:
- Ensure you have Glimmer DSL for SWT 4.22.2.1 prerequisites setup (like JDK and JRuby).
- Clone repo:
git clone https://github.com/AndyObtiva/glimmer_metronome.git
(orgit clone git@github.com:AndyObtiva/glimmer_metronome.git
if you prefer SSH) - Go into directory:
cd glimmer_metronome
- Install project gems:
bundle
- Package native executable with
glimmer package
to produce APP on Mac, native project directory with exe on Windows, and native project with binary on Linux - Package native executable with
glimmer "package[dmg]"
to produce DMG file on Mac - Package native executable with
glimmer "package[msi]"
to produce MSI installer on Windows (assuming you installed the WiX Toolset as per the instructions at Glimmer DSL for SWT Packaging & Distribution) - You can also directly run the project from the cloned repo directory with
glimmer run
Contributing
- Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet.
- Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it.
- Fork the project.
- Start a feature/bugfix branch.
- Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution.
- Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
- Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
