Re: Reports with ruby on rails(Gruff & Scruffy)

Both gruff and scruffy can be installed using gem but first there is a dependency.  You have to first install imagemagick for windows and then install the rmagick gem.  Only then will your graphs work properly.

1. Download and install imagemagick for windows
2. gem install rmagick
3. gem install scruffy
4. gem install gruff

Have fun.
