Maintainer Quickstart

Clone this repo and navigate into the cloned folder. To run the tests locally, you will need Docker installed.

docker build . -t ruby-tracker
docker run -v "$(pwd)":"/code" ruby-tracker

The -v flag for docker run creates a bind mount for the project directory. This means that changes to the files will be automatically applied within the Docker image. However, if you modify the Gemfile or snowplow-tracker.gemspec files, the image must be rebuilt.

Alternatively, test directly by installing Ruby 2.1+ and Bundler. Then run:

bundle install
rspec

To generate documentation using YARD, make sure the YARD and redcarpet gems are installed locally. Then run:

yard doc
