resources_controller

is a plugin to facilitate inheritance and DRYness in your resources controllers. It introduces some abstraction to help you override the default RESTful funtionality in a clean and simple manner.

See History.txt for recent changes.

works with rails 2.x

resources_controller works with rails 2.x, and is currently tested against 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 stable branches

Specs and Coverage

  • The SPECDOC lists the specifications

  • Coverage is 100% (C0), and the spec suite is quite comprehensive

  • Rspec’s generated rspec_scaffold controller specs are tested against a simple rc controller (see rake spec:generate)

RSpec is used for testing, so the tests are in spec/ rather than test/ Do rake –tasks for more details.

Continuous Integration

garlic (at github.com/ianwhite/garlic) is used for CI. To run the CI suite have a look at garlic.rb

How to contribute

If you have found a bug, or have a new feature, then spec’d code is great. To make sure you haven’t broken rc, you want to run the ci suite. This is pretty easy, you just need to install garlic, and run it in a fresh checkout of rc. The first time it runs it will be a little slow, as it needs to check out various git repos, but subsequent runs will be fast. The following is how I work - you may want to only do a subset of this stuff

sudo gem install garlic

# add the following line to your ~/.profile
  source `garlic --path`/sh/garlic.sh

# reload your profile
. ~/.profile

# grab resources_controller and run the suite for the first time
git clone git://github.com/ianwhite/resources_controller.git
cd resources_controller
garlic all

# jump into 2-3 garlic work repo to make some changes
gcdp 2-3

# commit some stuff, run the specs with 'rake' etc

# then push up to the local master repo
gpush

# go back to the local master, run garlic again, to see if the 2-3 changes affected anything else
gup
garlic
