Ruby Programming with CUBRID

Below you can find the Ruby Driver to connect to CUBRID Database. If you wish to get the source code, they are at Github cubrid-ruby repository (see below).

There is always something new in CUBRID Database and something new in Ruby side. So we highly encourage Rubyists to test CUBRID Drivers and see if there is something needed to be added or modified. If so, share your thoughts at either Ruby forum on CUBRID or on Ruby on Rails: Talk page at Google groups (see below).

Downloads

On Windows

Windows users do not need to download anything to get Ruby Driver installed. For Windows users we have pushed cubrid-0.61-x86-mingw32.gem to Gemcutter. Use the above command (gem install cubrid) in the command line to install the latest version of Ruby Driver for CUBRID on Windows. Also, make sure you read the Tutorial provided at the end of this page. Read the Tutorial below for the detailed installation instructions.

On Linux

CUBRID gem has been successfully pushed to RubyGems.org. So, now on Linux users can get CUBRID connector through gem. Remember to add -E flag when installing the gem with sudo like "sudo -E gem install cubrid". The -E flag is necessary to make sure sudo does not reset the user path where CUBRID Database has been installed. Read the Tutorial below for the detailed installation instructions.
