Tc::Generator

Terms and conditions generator gem.

The T&C generator is a software which given:

i). A template
ii). A dataset

transforms the template into a Document expanding the template tags into their representation using the dataset.

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add tc-generator

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install tc-generator

Usage

To generate a terms and conditions document we first initialize the template and the dataset. Lastly we call the generator to output the document on the target path.

Initialisation of template and dataset

Initialize the generator;

Tc::Generator.configure do |configuration|
  configuration.target_folder_path     =  'path/to/target/folder'
  configuration.target_filename        =  'filename'
  configuration.dataset_path           =  'path/to/json/dataset'
  configuration.template_path          =  'path/to/erb/template'
  configuration.section_join_character = ';'
end

Run the generator

Tc::Generator::Run.call

After doing the steps above. One should have a document generated on the target path.

Check the examples folder readme to see the steps for this in action.

Dataset format

The gem expects dataset in a json file in this format below;

{
  "clauses": [
    { "id": 1, "text": "The quick brown fox" },
    { "id": 2, "text": "jumps over the lazy dog" },
    { "id": 3, "text": "And dies" },
    { "id": 4, "text": "The white horse is white" }
  ],
  "sections":
  [
    { "id": 1, "clauses_ids": [1, 2] }
  ]
}

Template

The gem expects template in a plain file in this format below;

A T&C Document
This document is made of plaintext.
Is made of [CLAUSE-3].
Is made of [CLAUSE-4].
Is made of [SECTION-1].
Your legals.

Development & Testing

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 the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

Common issues

If bin/setup or bundle install fails to work because of the machine you are running it on try these below.

For your platform do;

bundle lock --add-platform [PLATFORM]

Then run bundle install.
