Postgres
Postgres.app
We will be using a relational database called Postgres for Node and Rails portion our class.
Download and install from http://postgresapp.com/
Get the version of Postgres being installed on your system:
ls -la /Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions
There should be only one version in this directory, or take the highest version.
Create the export path command with that version number/directory name
export PATH=$PATH:/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/9.5/bin
If you have successfully configured bash and sublime, the following command should work.
sublime ~/.profile
Your sublime editor will popup with configuration settings, at the bottom of the file append the same line:
export PATH=$PATH:/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/9.5/bin
Type which psql
at which point should display
/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/9.5/bin/psql
Install some other sublime packages:
- Babel (syntax definition, we'll use this when working with React)
