README 

        
Let's try and make a gem to create .Net projects easily.



Getting started

===============

 1. `gem install logirel`

 1. Go to the project of your choice

 1. `logirel`

 1. You should now answer the questions that logirel poses.

 1. after it's done, run `rake`.

Hacking it

==========

 1. `git clone https://[email protected]/haf/logirel.git`

 1. `bundle install`

 1. `bundle exec rspec spec`



My thinking

===========



Some problems I want to solve with this project;



 * (bundler/semver/rake/gems)		having foundations for semver, rake for builds and nuget for packaging. 

 * (logirel) 						easily adding structure to a solution folder created with Visual Studio `logirel init`

 * (gitflow)						using ["a successful branching model"](http://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/)

 * (logirel/teamcity)				continuous integration friendly with 'environments' and transform files for e.g. config files

 * (logirel)						easily updating buildscripts from a git repository `gem update ; logirel update`

 * ensuring correct versions of build script dependencies

 * (nuget/owrap/symbolserver.org)	ensuring correct versions of source code dependencies

 * (gitflow)						nicely tagging your source trees corresponding to semver

 * `nuget :nuget do |n|; 'git ls-files'.split("\n").each{ |f| n.file f }; end` create a nuget item with just files



TODO list

=========



 1. make the core functionality solid

 1. sample configuration settings for team city to build from github

 1. build rake tasks invoking semver with ruby that integrate with teamcity

 1. try the gem out on the transactions, auto tx and nhibernate facility projects

 1. create some guidance - links mostly on how to set up a gemserver locally



A note about aims

=================



The aim is **not** to replace nuget nor owrap. This is will principally be a gem for setting up a great

rakefile and versioning the package through rake and continuous integration and publishing the artifacts.



Nuget and OpenWrap don't integrate with continuous integration environments. They don't assist in creating

a nice build environment. With them, it's up to yourself to implement a build script that follows semantic

versioning.



Often I encounter .Net open source projects that I want to use. Because I'm increasingly writing SOA code

where each service is on its own, communicating through events/EDA and commands, I need to quickly

be able to set up a build environment for those projects and make sure I can version the dependencies

properly. Right now, hacking build scripts, is taking too much time. For example, it should be very

easy to create .Sample projects for nuget, so that people can learn about my frameworks, but the overhead

of managing another build is too large.

   I've integrated pieces of its functionality into logirel, mostly its actions module and vs proj parsing.)
