Roadmap
Fastball is a young, opionated project with more features under active development.
- CLI command to vendor fastball in an application so production servers do not require the fastball gem to function
- Packaging dynamic applications into a build archive with all dependencies vendored (except for the interpreter)
- Deploying build archives into a designated deployment environment
Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
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.
