It handles the ins & outs of compiling Ruby on the Mac, including OpenSSL: https://github.com/sstephenson/ruby-build Otherwise, you'll need to build openssl, configure Ruby --with-openssl-dir, and fetch your own root CA certificates. Big song and dance. RVM can wrap this up for you, too: https://rvm.io/rvm/install/ (I wish Ruby kept support for Apple's patched OpenSSL, even though it's deprecated and broken.)
