Installing Ronin on Ubuntu
Copy/Paste Instructions
sudo apt install -y gcc make ruby-full git zip nmap masscan graphviz
sudo gem install ronin
Detailed Breakdown
Build Dependencies
First we will need to install a C compiler (gcc or clang) and make. These are required to install certain ruby gems, which contain C extensions (aka C bindings) to other C libraries, such as the nokogiri, sqlite3, and nio4r gems.
sudo apt install -y gcc make
Ruby
Next, we will need to install Ruby >= 3.0.0, which should already be available in your system’s package manager.
sudo apt install -y ruby-full
Runtime Dependencies
Next we will need to install additional utilities, such as git and zip, that parts of Ronin use:
sudo apt install -y git zip
Ronin
Now that everything else is installed, it is time to install Ronin!
sudo gem install ronin
Postinstall
Assuming no errors occur, you should now be able to run ronin
:
ronin help
Troubleshooting
Ruby and many ruby gems will not work if the LANG
environment variable is
not set or set to C
. Make sure that LANG
is set to a UTF8 language, such as
en_US.UTF-8
.
