Flynn

Flynn is an open source command line tool for easily bootstrapping new projects. It is a lightweight framework designed to meet the following goals: One command to start new projects, easily pluggable (allowing users to write their own recipes), simple configuration, and readable and maintainable code.

The tool currently hooks into RVM heavily for the creation of ruby projects. There should be very few other dependencies. Recipes are responsible for installing anything (read: gems) they need.

• Install Ruby 1.9 (via RVM or natively)

    $> gem install rvm
    $> rvm install <your favorite ruby>
    $> rvm use --default <your favorite ruby>
  

• Install Flynn:

    $> gem install flynn
  

• Create a new rails3 project:

   $> flynn rails3 awesomeproject -J -O -m ../templates/heroku_template.rb
  

$> mate ~/.flynn/recipes/my_sinatra.rb
class Flynn::Recipes::MySinatra
  def create(app_name, options=[])
    # Do whatever tasks you want
  end
end

Flynn will automatically load any ruby files within this directory.
