Rubolite is an interface to Gitolite (https://github.com/sitaramc/gitolite)

@robertoross

gem "rubolite"

admin = Rubolite::Admin.new("/Users/robertross/Sites/gitolite-admin")
client = admin.client
client.repos # Get a list of repos

repo = Rubolite::Repo.new("newrepository")
user = Rubolite::User.new("robert", "RW+")

repo.add_user user

client.add_repo repo

client.save_and_push!

• Rubolite requires that you tell it where your admin repository is on your box. It does not bootstrap this for you. Gitolite must be setup.
• Once you have that, the Rubolite::Admin class returns a client object by calling admin.client. You do most of your calls on this interface.
• To get a list of repos in the current config, call client.repos
• To add a repository to your config, insantiate a Repo object with a name.
• Repo objects take users which are instantiated with a name and permission level. Example: user = Rubolite::User.new("robert", "RW+")
• Then we add the user to the repo with Repo#add_user
• Then we add the repo to the client with Client#add_repo

Calling save_and_push! does the following:

• Writes the new configuration file.
• Saves any SSH Keys you may have added (see below)
• Commits the changes to the gitolite-admin repo
• Pushes them to your origin remote.

If you really desire, you may call the methods individually. The methods are:

• save! Writes the config.
• save_ssh_keys! Writes SSH keys that may have been added.
• commit! Commits the changes on gitolite-admin.
• push! Pushes the repository to origin master.

SSH Keys are handled by the Rubolite::SSHKey object.

ssh_key = Rubolite::SSHKey.from_string("ssh-rsa awesomekeyprint robertross@local")

ssh_key = Rubolite::SSHKey.from_file("~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub")

Call add_ssh_key on your client with 2 parameters: username, and the ssh key object.

Your username must be the same name as the Rubolite::User name you add to repositories.

repo = Rubolite::Repo.new("new-repo")
repo.add_user Rubolite::User.new("robert", "RW+")
client.add_ssh_key "robert", ssh_key
