Nww-Devtools

Here at Nix-wie-weg® we use some common supporting gems and configuration for our Ruby projects. We document the actual list here.

Pry

Gemfile

group :development do
  gem 'pry'
  gem 'pry-doc'
  gem 'pry-byebug'
  gem 'awesome_print'
end

Rails

Gemfile

gem 'better_errors'
gem 'binding_of_caller'
gem 'require_reloader'

Initializer

BetterErrors::Middleware.allow_ip! '10.1.0.0/16' if Rails.env.development?

RuboCop

Gemfile

gem 'rubocop', '~> 0.39.0', require: false

We agreed on the cops of the specific version 0.39.

.rubocop.yml

(In project directory)

AllCops:
  TargetRubyVersion: 2.2
  Exclude:
    - 'vendor/bundle/**/*'
  DisplayCopNames: true
Rails:
  Enabled: true
Style/Encoding:
  EnforcedStyle: when_needed
  Enabled: true
Style/AsciiComments:
  Enabled: false
Style/Documentation:
  Enabled: false
Metrics/MethodLength:
  Enabled: false
Style/MethodDefParentheses:
  Enabled: false
Style/MultilineOperationIndentation:
  EnforcedStyle: aligned
Style/MultilineMethodCallIndentation:

Style/MultilineMethodDefinitionBraceLayout:

  Enabled: false
Metrics/ParameterLists:
  Enabled: false
Style/MultilineBlockChain:

Style/CommentAnnotation:

Style/GuardClause:

Notes

  • The TargetRubyVersion has to be set to the corresponding Ruby version used in the project.
  • Style/Encoding should be disabled in projects with Ruby >=2.0, which assumes UTF-8 encoding by default.
  • The remaining entries are team consensus.

What about the meta-gems?

In the past we used meta-gems (nww_devtools for Ruby 1.9.x and Ruby 2.x, nww_devtools_rails, rubocop-nww) to incorporate all the common gems and settings we needed in almost every Ruby project. It turned out that we found us in dependency hell quickly. Every small change in e. g. our RuboCop settings involved a bump of four gems. This effectivly slowed us down maintaining these gems actively.

We want more activity and creativity so we concluded simply describing these dependencies in a document and regularly checking our projects against it could be a much cheaper solution. We'll see how this works out.
