Where I keep my templates for quickly generating new rails apps

A place for me to keep any rails templates I come up with. Feel free to fork of course but it's unlikely I'll accept any pull requests for other templates as this is really for my own personal use. Knock yourself out in your own repos though!

.railsrc

You'll need to set the default database etc. in your ~/.railsrc. Mine looks like:

-d postgresql
--skip-test-unit
--skip-bundle

I prefer starting with PostgreSQL, the template installs RSpec so test-unit isn't needed, and bundler is run when we need it to.

Running

Clone the repository somewhere and run:

rails new <app_name> --template=path/to/checkout/<template_name>.rb

Templates

This currently contains only one template. (And maybe only ever will)

default.rb
