iojs-install-script

A script to install basic development tools for iojs (git, iojs, gcc, pkg-config, etc)

Works for any recent version of Ubuntu or OS X.

# Specify the version of iojs to install
echo "v1.0.1" > /tmp/IOJS_VER

# And install away!
curl -fsSL bit.ly/iojs-dev -o /tmp/iojs-dev.bash; bash /tmp/iojs-dev.bash

# Or if you don't need any development tools
curl -fsSL bit.ly/iojs-min | bash

NOTE: If you have node installed, this script will rename it so that it isn't overwritten by the iojs installer.

For older versions of Ubuntu:

wget -nv bit.ly/install-iojs -O - | bash

This is what gets installed:

• rsync
• curl
• wget
• git
• xcode / brew / build-essential / pkg-config / gcc
• iojs (including npm and node symlink)
• jshint

NOTE: If fail2ban is not already securing ssh, you will be asked to install it.
