GemSorter

GemSorter is a simple gem to sort the contents of your Gemfile alphabetically while preserving comments and group structure. It helps maintain a clean and organized Gemfile.

• Sorts gems alphabetically.
• Preserves comments and their association with gems.
• Maintains group structure in the Gemfile.
• Optionally creates a backup of the original Gemfile.
• Update the comments of the gems based on their descriptions.

Add the gem to your project's Gemfile:

gem "gem_sorter"

or install it globally:

gem install gem_sorter

Once installed, you can use the provided Rake task to sort your Gemfile:

rake gemfile:sort

You can also run the gem_sorter globally, without needing to add it to your Gemfile:

rake -r gem_sorter gemfile:sort

• backup: Pass true to create a backup of your Gemfile as Gemfile.old before sorting.
• update_comments: Pass true to update the comments of the gems based on their descriptions.
• update_versions: Pass true to update the versions of the gems based on the lockfile.

Example:

rake gemfile:sort[true,true,true]

This will sort your Gemfile, create a backup, and update comments and versions.

Create a file in the root of your project called gem_sorter.yml

• backup: Pass true to create a backup of your Gemfile as Gemfile.old before sorting.
• update_comments: Pass true to update the comments of the gems based on their descriptions.
• update_versions: Pass true to update the versions of the gems based on the lockfile.
• ignore_gems: Pass an array of GEMs you want to ignore versions and comments
• ignore_gem_versions: Pass an array of GEMs you want to ignore versions
• ignore_gem_comments: Pass an array of GEMs you want to ignore comments

Example:

backup: true
update_comments: true
update_versions: false
ignore_gems:
  - byebug
  - discard
ignore_gem_versions:
  - rspec
ignore_gem_comments:
  - otpor

This will sort your Gemfile, create a backup, and update comments and versions.
