Nozomi: Faster Rails templating

My stack for new rails 3 projects.

Each change is committed to git in a single commit, so you can cherry pick the bits you like. Alternatively feel free to use the template as a base for your own version.

Usage

gem install nozomi
nozomi projectname

args

-d for selecting database, passed directly through to Rails
-i for Interactive mode, user can choose any of the provided mini-templates

bundler

Easy gem management.

guard

Only need one terminal window open to run rspec, spork, rails server, and automatically reload bundler etc.

rspec

I don't remember the last time I used Test::Unit, does anybody actually use it anymore?

jquery

jQuery is today's default JS framework of choice.

haml

I cringe when I see ERB, if your designer doesn't understand Haml, perhaps it's time for a new designer.

sass

Now that SCSS is a superset of CSS there should be no arguments here.

bootstrap-sass

Awesome out-of-the-box styling using the Twitter-Bootstrap suite, done in sass.

decent_exposure

For fashion-model thin controllers, so skinny they're barely there. (Did you know that Nozomi is also a Japanese fashion model?)

capybara

The best interface for driving any kind of integration specs with Selenium, Webrat, etc

Installing the gem locally for testing

You will probably want to uninstall any existing nozomi gem:

gem uninstall nozomi

Now run:

rake install

How to contribute

Fork the project.
Make your feature addition or bug fix.
Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
