Installing BackgrounDRb

BackgrounDRb is a job scheduling library for the ruby programming language.

I had a right old ding dong with it when trying to install it into a rails app I'm working on, what with the documentation being a little out of date (I think) plus there being a load of confusing page on the net. In the end what worked for me was:

  # sudo gem install chronic packet
  # cd rails_app
  # script/plugin install http://svn.devjavu.com/backgroundrb/trunk
  # rake backgroundrb:setup
  # rake db:migrate

So far this has worked for me...
