RanchHand

Provides a simple interface on top the Rancher CLI and the Kubectl commands to make running commands in pods easier. This is particularily useful when using Kubernetes in a development environment.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'ranch-hand'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install ranch-hand

Once ranch-hand is installed, run ranch-hand setup from the command line. This will create the necessary files in ~/.ranch-hand.

Project setup is optional. You can create a set of default values for certain flags by running ranch-hand init in any directory. When ranch-hand is run from a directory it will use the values in the .ranch-hand file if it is present.

Normally you might run the following command: ranch-hand -n my-namespace -g -p my-project -c /bin/bash Using ranch-hand init you can set the namespace, grouping flag and pod name as defaults, and instead just run: ranch-hand -c /bin/bash.

RanchHand makes use of the GLI (Git Like Interface) gem to create a CLI with features similar to the Git CLI. Run ranch-hand help or ranch-hand command help for usage information.

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.
