what would be a quick way to deploy hubot on my mac

$ sudo brew install node.js

$ sudo curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh

$ wget https://github.com/downloads/github/hubot/hubot-1.0.0.tar.gz

$ tar zxvf hubot-1.0.0.tar.gz

$ cd hubot

$ npm install

$ ./bin/hubot

Mine had some path issues that showed up as

env: coffee: No such file or directory

but manually setting the path to the .bin directory in hubot's generated node_modules seemed to do the trick.

We've released 1.0.2 to deal with this. Sorry for the confusion, https://github.com/downloads/github/hubot/hubot-1.0.2.tar.gz

Thanks, I was going to put in a PR, but you got to it first.

you shouldnt need to sudo "brew install" commands. if you do, you've messed up the permissions it's setup. there's a part in their faq about why they believe sudo is bad https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/wiki/FAQ
