Rake TUI Demo

Other TUI gems you may be interested in:

Pre-requisites

gem install rake-tui

gem 'rake-tui', require: false

rvm @global do gem install rake-tui

Simply run this command:

rakeui

Or one of the aliases:

rake-ui
raketui
rake-tui

If you are using RVM, then rake-tui works in JRuby too.

Otherwise, simply run this command instead:

jrakeui

Or one of the aliases:

jrake-ui
jraketui
jrake-tui

To use rake-tui as part of a Ruby app, require the rake-tui gem once at the top of your code:

require 'rake-tui'

Afterwards, simply invoke the Rake::TUI.run method wherever you need to display the TUI to the user:

Rake::TUI.run

If you'd rather specify or limit the tasks shown, then pass the tasks to the constructor before running:

Rake::TUI.new(tasks).run

If you want to make that the default, then set the singleton instance:

Rake::TUI.instance(Rake::TUI.new(tasks))
Rake::TUI.run # this now displays the specified task list

Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet.
Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it.
Fork the project.
Start a feature/bugfix branch.
Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution.
Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
