Configuration hook (custom load paths?)

[searls]

I'm hoping to get parity between m and my test task in rake, which adds a load path:

Rake::TestTask.new(:test) do |t|
  t.libs << "test"
  t.libs << "lib"
  t.test_files = FileList['test/helper.rb', 'test/**/*_test.rb']
end

As a result, my require statements for test-scoped files don't work when I'm running via m. Is there any kind of configuration hook available?

Sorry for the late reply. There is currently no configuration for that.

lib is required if you're running a single file or line, but not for directories, since we have a different way to run those. I could simply add lib on directories as well, or make this configurable. I'm not sure how valuable it would be to have this config option.

Have you had this issue with any other directories? Because testis already in the load path for both directories and single files and lib is as I just described.

Feedback is welcome.

You can check out what it might look like with an option in this branch.

Usage would be something like: m -Ipath example_test.rb.

@searls Did you get to test the branch? Is this something you're still interested in?

[searls]

Sorry, I tried and then failed to get something to work (I can't remember what) and ended up removing 'm' from my gem config because I needed to maintain 1.8 support

[zamith]

Oh, sorry to hear that. 1.8 support is something I won't be adding again, but hopefully you'll be able to use m in other projects.
