ThreddedCreateApp

THIS IS A WORK-IN-PROGRESS REPO AND IS NOT YET USABLE.

Generates a Rails app with the Thredded forums engine installed.

This generator will create a new Rails app with the following configuration:

• Database: PostgreSQL.
• Auth: Devise.

Pre-requisites

1. Git.
2. PostgreSQL.
3. Ruby 2.3+.

Usage

First, install the gem:

gem install thredded_create_app

Then, run the command below depending on how you installed your ruby:

• If using system ruby:

  thredded_create_app myapp

• If using RVM:

  RUBY_VERSION=2.3.1 APP=myapp
  rvm use --create "${RUBY_VERSION}@${APP}"
  thredded_create_app $APP

  Then, generate .ruby-version and .ruby-gemset:

  cd myapp
  rvm use --ruby-version "${RUBY_VERSION}@${APP}"
  printf '.ruby-version\n.ruby-gemset\n' >> .git/info/exclude

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

Run bin/create-tmp-myapp to generate an app with thredded_create_app at tmp/myapp. This command will clean up the previously generated app before creating a new one.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
