Liza

Liza is a light, experimental framework primarily developed to help study the Ruby language and the Ruby ecosystem.

Liza is a < 2500 LOC framework, which provides an abstract architecture for organizing Ruby code using systems.

It defines 3 top level constants [Lizarb, App, Liza]and works with any gem or app that doesn't implement these constants.

Author note

I am happy with the project and I am starting to focus on documentation.

I will be updating the website https://lizarb.org/ to include more vivid examples and tutorials.

Installing

Install the gem by executing:

gem install lizarb

You will get the following shims:

lizarb version
liza version

REPL

Try Liza with IRB or Pry:

liza irb
liza pry

Create a liza app

So you can run your experiments:

liza new

Then enter your automagically generated liza app:

cd app_1
liza help

Now you're ready to go and try some stuff!

Running Tests

OK, one more thing!

All controllers you generate come paired with a test file.

You can run the tests with:

liza test

DevSystem

Generate a command

liza generate
liza generate command
liza generate command my
liza my
liza my 1 2 3

Generate a system

liza generate
liza generate system my
liza generate system my

Generate a command in a system

liza generate
