Development
After checking out the repo, run bundle install
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
To run a REPL with an initialized client object you'll need to create your own .env
file based off .env.sample
and then run bundle exec ruby example.rb
.
