RubyEdit

RubyEdit is a simple commandline app that allows you to edit grep results in one file.

Run this line in your terminal:

gem install ruby-edit

Run:

ruby-edit -e my_expression -p ./path/to/file/

This will populate a tempfile with the grep results.

e.g.

./path/to/file/file.rb:4:  my_expression('string')
./path/to/file/file.rb:10:    def my_expression(string)
./path/to/file/file_spec.rb:7: expect { my_expression('string') }.to do

Perform your edits and then save your file.

Warning: Leave the path and line number alone, as this is used to find the respective file. The space between the line number and your text is your indentation. Removing it will affect the indentation of your text.

You'll then be prompted in the console:

Do you want to apply these changes? (Y/n)

Selecting 'Y' will insert your changes into their respective files.

Run:

ruby-edit configure -e my_editor

This will set your default editor. Pass the command you use to start your editor, NOT the name of the editor. For example: if you use Sublime Text send subl not Sublime Text

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.
