A working CRUD using Roda and Sequel, intended as a bootstrap for applications that want to leverage a minimal ruby stack.
Just clone the repo, remove .git and start your application with a
minimal, but with sensible (in my opinion) defaults, ruby web application.
I like minimal web applications, but everytime I started a new project I had to re-read documentation and setup the infrastructure from scratch all over again.
This bootstrap has the goal of being a middle ground where you can have some sane defaults so that you can be productive from the start while mantaining lightweightness.
Sqlite is used as default adapter, see .env-sample and opening_databases.rdoc.
It uses Twitter Bootstrap, so it's not exactly minimal on the front-end but it is useful to illustrate how to bundle your assets.
Some people may feel like there's too much stuff on this bootstrap, others that there's too few. Some people might think a bootstrap should include a Rails like flash helper or authentication, others that asset bundling should be not included.
Fortunately Roda makes it really easy to strip off or include middlewares and plugins, see:
Hopefully you'll find what you need there.
Additional examples can be found on the examples section.
BS is a script that loads the .env file and uses it to configure
environment variables, see $EDITOR bin/bs.
Vendored from: https://github.com/educabilia/bs.
Install bundler: gem install bundler.
Run bundle install inside the project's directory.
You can also avoid using bundler altogether and use a smaller tool, gst.
Just make sure to append this to your .env file:
GEM_HOME=$(pwd)/.gs
GEM_PATH=$(pwd)/.gs
PATH=$(pwd)/.gs/bin:$PATH
And run bin/bs when you need to run any operation that requires the bundle.
With the latest MRI and bundler updates I've not used it anymore, but it may be useful for the hardcore minimal users.
Run cp .env{-sample,} && $EDITOR .env to setup and configure the
application locally.
Setup your database, or do nothing if you're using .env-sample.
Create tables and seeds: bin/bs bundle exec rake db:migrate db:seed
Additionally you can change now all references from Yogurt to your project name, see this script.
Execute bin/bs bundle exec unicorn -c config/unicorn.rb to run the application
locally (without bundle exec if you're using gst).
Visit /communities.
Use the .test.env file to configure the testing environment.
Migrate with: BS=.test.env bin/bs bundle exec rake db:migrate.
Test with: BS=.test.env bin/bs bundle exec rake test.
Individually: BS=.test.env bin/bs ruby test/routes/communities_test.rb.
