Mr Bones version 1.3.5
by Tim P.
http://codeforpeople.rubyforge.org/bones
(the “Skeletor” release)
== DESCRIPTION
Mr Bones is a handy tool that builds a skeleton for your new Ruby
projects.
The skeleton contains some starter code and a collection of rake tasks
to
ease the management and deployment of your source code. Mr Bones is not
viral – all the code your project needs is included in the skeleton (no
gem dependency required).
== CHANGES
- 2 minor enhancements
- Added a bones:debug task to inspect the PROJ open struct or
a single attribute of the PROJ open struct - Small adjustments to the gem and spec tasks
- Added a bones:debug task to inspect the PROJ open struct or
- 1 bug fix
- Project names can now contain dahes (my-proj)
== INSTALL
- sudo gem install bones
== SYNOPSIS
To create a new “Get Fuzzy” project:
bones get_fuzzy
If a new release of Mr Bones comes out with better features the “Get
Fuzzy”
project will need to be updated:
bones --update get_fuzzy
And if you ever get confused about what Mr Bones can do:
bones --help
