## Description
This layer aims at providing support for the Ruby language using
[enh-ruby-mode][] and [robe-mode][].
## Install
To use this contribution add it to your `~/.spacemacs`
```elisp
(defvar dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(ruby)
"List of contribution to load."
)
```
In order to take advantage of `robe-mode` you will probably need to
install the `pry` gem.
You can do that via your Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'pry'
```
or on the command line:
```shell
$ gem install pry
```
## Key bindings
### enh-ruby-mode
SPC m i start REPL
SPC m g go to definition (robe-jump)
SPC m d go to Documentation
SPC m R reload environment (Rails)
### ruby-test-mode
ruby-test-mode comes bundled with spacemacs, but this contribution adds
a couple of useful keybindings:
SPC m t b run test file
SPC m t t run test at pointer
