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

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(ruby))

Prerequisites

Some of the advanced features supported by this layer depend on external gems that need to be installed in the context of your project (see below for guidance based on your version manager):

• pry and pry-doc are required for jump to definition and code documentation (robe-mode)
• ruby_parser is required for goto-step_definition in feature-mode

You can install the gems in the context of your current project by adding them to the Gemfile, e.g.:

 gem 'pry'

or on the command line (please refer to your ruby version manager specific documentation for details and caveats):

$ gem install pry

Ruby version management

This layer supports the use of RVM and Rbenv. To enable it, set the ruby-version-manager var in your ~/.spacemacs:

(defun dotspacemacs/init ()
  (setq-default ruby-version-manager 'rbenv)
)

Possible values are rbenv and rvm.

Rails support

Rails support is available through projectile-rails. To enable it, set the ruby-enable-ruby-on-rails-support var in your ~/.spacemacs:

(defun dotspacemacs/init ()
  (setq-default ruby-enable-ruby-on-rails-support t)
)

This will also add haml-mode (for templates written in haml language and feature-mode for Cucumber support.

Key bindings

Ruby (enh-ruby-mode, robe, inf-ruby)

Key binding	Description
SPC m g g	go to definition (robe-jump)
SPC m h d	go to Documentation
SPC m s f	send function definition
SPC m s F	send function definition and switch to REPL
SPC m s i	start REPL
SPC m s r	send region
SPC m s R	send region and switch to REPL

ruby-test-mode

ruby-test-mode comes bundled with spacemacs, but this contribution adds a couple of useful keybindings:

Key binding	Description
SPC m t b	run test file
SPC m t t	run test at pointer
