Gem files will remain installed in /Users/myuser/projectpath/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/gems/nokogiri-1.6.2.rc2 for inspection.
Results logged to /Users/myuser/projectpath/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.0.0/extensions/universal-darwin-13/2.0.0/nokogiri-1.6.2.rc2/gem_make.out
An error occurred while installing nokogiri (1.6.2.rc2), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install nokogiri -v '1.6.2.rc2'` succeeds before bundling.
After googling I found a way to resolve that issue .

brew install libxml2
bundle config build.nokogiri "--use-system-libraries --with-xml2-include=/usr/local/opt/libxml2/include/libxml2"
bundle install


Happy coding :)
