## Build from source
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`mas` currently requires the [bundler](http://bundler.io/) RubyGem in order to
|
|
|
|
|
bootstrap and build the project. There are a number ways to install bundler but
|
|
|
|
|
if you have never used it before then installing it with `gem` should be enough.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
$ gem install bundler
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can now bootstrap the project by executing the `bootstrap` script
|
|
|
|
|
from the mas sources script directory:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
$ script/bootstrap
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can now build from Xcode by opening `mas-cli.xcodeproj`, or from the Terminal:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
$ script/build
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build output can be found in the `build/` directory within the project.
