ramix¶ ↑

Ramix is a command-line tool for initializing a new rails application. Just the same as rails but adding more additional options.

similar project: rails_wizard rails_apps_composer

When i initialize a new rails application, i always need to find a authentication solution, remove unused index page, replace some other template languages, do some code hack in special rails version and so on. Of course, rails ‘-m` can do this, but if i need to do some small change, i must create a new template or use ’ask’ in the template. The template will be long and unmaintainable. Ramix just wrapped ‘rails app_generator’ and also used template, so it can help you.

The usage like rails new APP_PATH

ramix new ~/demo

Will create a new rails application with authentication(devise and omniauth), new-index page.

ramix new ~/demo -n mongoid -l haml

Will use mongoid as default database and use haml as default template.

type

ramix -h

You will find all options supported

gem install ramix

• Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn’t been implemented or the bug hasn’t been fixed yet

• Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn’t requested it and/or contributed it

• Fork the project

• Start a feature/bugfix branch

• Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution

• Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.

• Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
