I got tired of typing the same commands all the time and/or looking up urls for plugins. Hence this script…. Yes, I know it’s been done before, but this does what I want (for now; I’m sure I’ll edit it).
It does the following:
- Creates rails instance (optionally setting the database, etc.)
- Installs rspec & rspec-rails
- Installs acts_as_statemachine
- Installs restful_authentication
- Modifies routes.rb
- Adds an observer
- Adds email settings
You can see the script below the cut or download it here:start-rails
(Edit: Removed an un-escaped pair of parens)
