DRG

A Ruby utility to help automate common tasks! Currently includes enhanced dependency management using Bundler. You can pin Gem versions to the current or the next available level (major, minor, or patch). Can also automatically update your gems to the latest available version.

Requirements

• Bundler 1.10+

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'drg'

Tasks

rake drg:update
rake drg:pin
rake drg:pin:major
rake drg:pin:minor
rake drg:pin:patch
rake drg:pin:patch_latest
rake drg:pin:minor_latest
rake drg:unpin

drg:update

DRG loves updating gems! Run this command to check for outdated gems and try to update them to the latest available version. Each outdated gem will be updated, then DRG will run your tests (with rake) and if your tests pass, the new version will be written to your Gemfile!

rake drg:update

Easy!

drg:pin

DRG really wants to help you manage your project's gems. But DRG doesn't want to replace Bundler. Instead, we want to build on it. Pinning ignores gems that are fetched from somewhere other than rubygems. For example, gems listed with :git, :github, or :path will be ignored. You can "pin" all your versions to the current version listed in the Gemfile.lock:

rake drg:pin

Will update a Gemfile to their full version:

gem 'rails'
gem 'byebug', require: false
gem 'therubyracer', '~> 0.12', platforms: :ruby
gem 'drg' # need this

it'll get changed to

gem 'rails', '4.2.3'
gem 'byebug', '5.0.0', require: false
gem 'therubyracer', '0.12.2', platforms: :ruby
gem 'drg', '0.4.1' # need this

drg:pin:minor

Want to pin gems at their minor version?

rake drg:pin:minor

Will update a Gemfile

gem 'rails', '4.2.3'

to

gem 'rails', '~> 4.2'

drg:pin:patch

Want to pin gems at their patch version?

rake drg:pin:minor

Will update a Gemfile

gem 'rails', '4.2.3'

to

gem 'rails', '~> 4.2.3'

This can be combined with bundle update to quickly update all gems to the latest patch or minor level.

drg:pin:major

Pins your gems at the major level:

 rake drg:pin:major

drg:pin:patch_latest

Updates the patch version for each outdated gem to the highest available version. This command should be run after drg:pin to ensure your gem versions are normalized.

 rake drg:pin:patch_latest         #=> updates all gems in the Gemfile
 rake drg:pin:patch_latest[<gem>]  #=> updates only the specified <gem>

drg:pin:minor_latest

Same as patch_latest except it updates the minor version to the latest

 rake drg:pin:minor_latest         #=> updates all gems in the Gemfile
 rake drg:pin:minor_latest[<gem>]  #=> updates only the specified <gem>

drg:unpin

Remove the versions from your Gemfile. Start fresh!

rake drg:unpin

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
