If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.
Once Darwin Ports has been installed, in a terminal window and while online, type the following and hit return:

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/rb-postgres
%  sudo port install rb-postgres  
Password: 

You will then be prompted for your root password, which you should enter. You may have to wait for a few minutes while the software is retrieved from the network and installed for you. Y ou should see something that looks similar to:

--->  Fetching rb-postgres
--->  Verifying checksum for rb-postgres
--->  Extracting rb-postgres
--->  Configuring rb-postgres
--->  Building rb-postgres with target all

--->  Staging rb-postgres into destroot

--->  Installing rb-postgres

- Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using rb-postgres with these commands:

%  man rb-postgres
%  apropos rb-postgres
%  which rb-postgres
%  locate rb-postgres
