More info: http://rsence.org/

List of dependencies with a brief description:

• rake[http://rake.rubyforge.org]
  • Ruby build tool
  • Not necessarily required via ruby gems, if installed via a system-level package
• coffee-script[https://github.com/josh/ruby-coffee-script]
  • Ruby library for .coffee -> .js compliation
• rack[http://rack.rubyforge.org]
  • Abstract ruby web server interface
  • A rack handler is also required. One of the following is suggested:
    • unicorn[http://unicorn.bogomips.org] :: Suggested for production deployment. Use Apache, Nginx or similar front-ends for virtual hosts, SSL and such.
    • mongrel[http://github.com/fauna/mongrel] :: Suggested for development use, also works for production when combined with a front-end proxy for virtual hosts etc.
    • thin[http://code.macournoyer.com/thin] :: Alternative for development use.
    • webrick:: Bundled with ruby (no installation required). Very slow; use as last resort
• json[http://flori.github.com/json]:: Library for bi-directional JSON[http://json.org] conversion.
• yaml[http://yaml4r.sourceforge.net/doc]:: Library for handling YAML[http://www.yaml.org] files
• randgen:: C-optimized random string generator developed for RSence specifically
• jsmin_c:: C-optimized Javascript whitespace removal library; Ruby wrapper developed for RSence specifically; based on the original JSMin[http://www.crockford.com/javascript/jsmin.html]
• jscompress:: C-optimized Javascript compression and obfuscation library developed for RSence specifically
• html_min:: C-optimized HTML whitespace removal library developed for RSence specifically
• cssmin:: CSS whitespace removal library
• sequel[http://sequel.rubyforge.org/]
  • Generic SQL database ORM
  • A Sequel driver for your preferred database is also needed:
    • sqlite3:: SQLite[http://www.sqlite.org] is a light-weight SQL library. Recommended for development and small projects.
    • Other database adapters compatible with Sequel are fine. Just configure RSence accordingly.
• highline:: Console-based menu prompt system by the init command.
• rmagick
  • Optional, but suggested, because RSence has RMagick -savvy features, like serving RMagick objects using tickets that are rendered only when requested.
  • Some plugins depend on it directly.
