`nrb` - Ninja Ruby scripts -

Ninja Ruby scripts with easy persistence for your experimenting needs.

Do you want to work on some idea that's more than a script but you don't want to generate a fully fleged Rails app?

nrb generates a simple scaffold for your script. Complete with autoloading, custom configurations and persistence. Just like a mini rails.

Getting Started

First install the gem:
```
 $ gem install nrb
```
Create your new Ninja Ruy project:
```
 $ nrb new my-project
```

my-project is your project name.

Change the directory to my-project and start hacking:

 $ cd my-project

 ├── config
 │   ├── boot.rb
 │   └── nrb.rb
 ├── db
 │   └── config.yml
 ├── models
 ├── services
 ├── Gemfile
 ├── my-project.rb
 ├── Rakefile
 └── README.md

Your main file is my-project.rb. Add your ideas here. You can also add more gems to the Gemfile and they will be automatically required.

You can also change the config/nrb.rb file to add custom configurations.

Also, everything you add to models and services will be required automatically.

To run your script:
```
 $ nrb start
```

And to start the console with your script loaded:

  $ nrb console

Models

You can enjoy all the goodness ActiveRecord provides, outside Rails, and without the bolierplate needed. The commands are almost the same as in Rails.

Create the database:
```
 $ rake db:create
```

Create a model:

 $ nrb g model user username email

 db/migrate
 └── 20160311091641_create_users.rb
 models
 └── user.rb

You can then edit the migration and the model as you please.

Finally run the migration!
```
 $ rake db:migrate
```

Services

These are just simple classes with the added benefit of being automatically Required in your main script file (the my-project.rb from the examples above).

To add a service:

    $ nrb g service user_service

    services
    └── user_service.rb

Configuration

You can add or change configurations inside config/nrb.rb:

Nrb.configure do |config|
  # Root of the script folder
  config.root = File.expand_path('..', __dir__)

  # Default directories to autoload_paths
  # config.autoload_paths = %w(models services)

  # My custom config
  config.my_custom_config = :foo
end

You can access them by simply calling: Nrb.config.my_custom_config.

Roadmap

Add generator for tests.
Add support for custom bundler groups.
Add ability to change the persistence adapter. Currently sqlite is the default.
Add ability to skip persistence altogether.
