Commandify

A bunch of really awesome, helpful and easy command line tools for Rails apps.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'commandify'

And then run:

$ bundle install
$ commandify install
$ source ~/.bashrc

Commandify adds aliases to ~/.bashrc which evaluate strings returned by the Commandify gem in the context of your current shell. After install, ~/.bashrc might look something like this:

# COMMANDIFY [VERSION NUMBER] #
alias r='eval $(bundle exec commandify r)'
alias m='eval $(bundle exec commandify m)'
alias v='eval $(bundle exec commandify v)'
...
# COMMANDIFY END #

When updating Commandify to a newer version, simply re-run commandify install. It will load all new aliases automatically. If you've manually modified aliases in ~/.bashrc and want to return to Commandify defaults, run commandify install! to force a re-installation.
