Firstly this walkthrough is done with a 14.04 32bit install of Ubuntu.

All Commands are quoted with "" which are not to be included in the command.

All commands that I could are terminal based.

Lets check if all updates for the system are installed first

in terminal type

"sudo apt-get update"

now we need to install git

"sudo apt-get install git"

lets get our RVM installed (Ruby Version Manager) now this is fun because the package you will get from apt-get is outdated.

so we are going to use CURL to get RVM

"sudo apt-get install curl"

then lets install RVM with curl like this

"curl -L get.rvm.io | bash -s stable"

"PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.rvm/bin # Add RVM to PATH for scripting"

"[[ -s "$HOME/.profile" ]] && source "$HOME/.profile""

"[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm""

"source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm"

now we can actually install RVM

"rvm requirements"

running this will check your system for requirements as well so you will need to put your system password in.

alright now we can download metamaps from the master using git

"git clone https://github.com/Connoropolous/metamaps_gen002.git"

now there is a couple other things we are going to need which is nodejs, postgresql, libpq-dev and redis-server

"sudo apt-get install nodejs"

"sudo apt-get install postgresql"

"sudo apt-get install libpq-dev"

"sudo apt-get install redis-server"

Install the specific version of ruby needed this will take some time *Note you will get a warning about this being an outdated version*

"rvm install ruby-1.9.3-p125"

Now we also need to rename your database file which is in ./config/database.yml.default to database.yml

now run inside your metamaps_gen002 folder

"bundle install" 

in your top lvl directory for metamaps this is a lengthy process so you might want to go and make a coffee or something :)

alright now we need to make sure your postgres password is the same as it is listed in the DB file so we are going to set it by

"sudo -u postgres psql"

Select postgres like this

"\password postgres;"

set the password to 3112

Then to quit

"\q;"

now we can run the rake install and db creation

"rake db:create"

"rake db:schema:load"

"rake db:fixtures:load"

Execute the server : "rails s"

and dont forget to run realtime too open a new terminal

navigate to ./realtime and run 

"nodejs realtime-server.js"

Now your all set enjoy your personal server of metamaps :)
