RfcReader

This is a simple gem that makes it easy to find and read RFCs listed on rfc-editor.com.

Note: This gem is not directly affiliated with rfc-editor.com. It's just a hobby project.

gem install rfc-reader

>>> rfc-reader

This command downloads the plaintext version of RFCs from
rfc-editor.org so that they can be read at the command line.

The last 100 downloaded RFCs are saved locally so that they can be
read later on without the need for an internet connection.

Commands:
  rfc-reader help [COMMAND]  # Describe available commands or one specific command
  rfc-reader library         # List already downloaded RFCs for reading
  rfc-reader recent          # List recent RFC releases for reading
  rfc-reader search [TERM]   # Search for RFCs by TERM for reading
  rfc-reader version         # Print the program version

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run default tests and rake spec:online to run online integration tests. Run the linter with rake lint and run safe autocorrect with rake fix. 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 the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
