Can't installl devdocs for offline browsing

Question

I have problem installing devdocs in my mac.
I tried to do the steps there but I'm stucked installing bundler.

I tried the following in the terminal:

gem install bundler //this worked
bundle install //this prints error: Bundler::GemfileNotFound


I already have the latest Ruby version required but still printing the same error.

I tried to execute bundle install in the path where the gemfile is still the same error.

I needed to install this in my pc for offline browsing. For those who successfully installed this in their mac machine, please help me.

This error indicates that you're trying to run the command in a directory that does not contain any Gemfile. I think that in your local directory, you forgot to clone the devdocs Git repo. So go to your local devdocs directory and type:

git clone https://github.com/Thibaut/devdocs

Then go to this directory, and type the following commands:

bundle install
thor docs:download --all
rackup

That should work, and devdocs should be available at localhost:9292. If that does not, maybe your ruby version is too old (devdocs requires Ruby 2.1.0 or greater). In this case, I strongly recommend you to us rvm to update ruby (rvm install ruby-2.1.0).
