Sinatra skeleton with activerecord and rspec

Hello people! This is my skeleton for a sinatra app

##dependencies

• Ruby
• Postgresql
• bundler

##installation

• Be sure to have ruby and bundler installed!

$ bundle install
$ cp config/database.yml.default config/database.yml
$ shotgun

• In another terminal window

$ open 'http://localhost:9393/YOUR_NAME'

That's it! You can now edit your application!

###Tests

They are in spec/ folder, to run them

$ rake spec

As you can imagine they are really basic here.

Application architecture

• config: all the config files
  • for database : database.yml
  • for the rest have a look;)
• db: all the file relatives to the database migrations
  • I use sinatra-activerecord to get migrations
  • I don't have rake tasks for database creation
  • it migrates only for current environnment (development by default)
• models: all your (non-)activerecord models
• routes: all the sinatra controllers.
  • for the moment, I only reopen the same class (App in this case)
• spec: Rspec folders. There are factories with factory girl
• views: All the views, I personally prefer rabl and slim or haml as template engines
