tm_helper ↑

Some useful utilities for Ruby development in TextMate.

Features ↑

  • Formats puts output when running RSpec specs in TextMate using the RSpec TextMate bundle.

    • Namely, it escapes HTML and converts \n characters to +<br/>+.

    • This is useful when using puts to debug code while running specs in TextMate.

  • Supports forcing of logs to the Textmate window.

    • Defining TM_SHOW_LOGS in your TextMate Preferences->Shell Variables will cause all logs issued using the Logger class be to redirected to the TextMate runner window.

    • This is useful when you want to see your application’s logs while running an RSpec spec in TextMate.

Installation ↑

Include tm_helper into your Gemfile.

gem 'tm_helper'

Usage ↑

Simply use puts as you would normally. Output will be automatically formatted when running in an RSpec window.

Define TM_SHOW_LOGS in your TextMate Preferences->Shell Variables to cause Logger logs issued by your application be to redirected to the TextMate runner window.

Advanced Usage ↑

To test whether your code is running in TextMate, use the running_in_textmate? function:

if TmHelper.running_in_textmate? 
  puts "I am running in TextMate."
end

To test whether your spec is being executed using the RSpec TextMate bundle, use the running_rspec_bundle? function:

if TmHelper.running_rspec_bundle? 
  puts "I am running in TextMate with the RSpec TextMate bundle loaded."
end
