File spec

RSpec 2 matcher to specify expected file structures.

This gem is used extensively by some of my Rails 3 assistance gems such as rails3_assist, rails3_artifactor and rails-app-spec which all assist you in operating on various kinds of Rails 3 artifacts.

Usage

The following demonstrates File expectation nesting to test a File hierarchy structure! Each block is evaluated in a new Dir context, using a Dir#chdir block.

Example: Nested file structure specs

See /spec folder for more usage examples.

TODO - advanced

  • use Dir.tmpdir
  • have_file_structure yaml

Should test that the files and dirs match the tree structure as indicated by the yaml string (or file). This is very convenient for more complex file structure specs!

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

  • Fork the project.
  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.
  • Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a
    future version unintentionally.
  • Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history.
    (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
  • Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
