Burke
Synopsis
Burke provides a bunch of helpers to make creating Rake files a little more pleasant. There are many subjective elements to this project, particularly when it comes to sensible defaults, but popular Ruby conventions are adhered to where possible. The project is named after Don Burke, host of an Australian gardening and home improvement show named Burke’s Backyard (www.burkesbackyard.com.au).
Features
-
DRY definition of Gem packages for multiple platforms
-
Recovery from missing libraries like Yard and RSpec
