Usage Questions

Please ask usage questions on stackoverflow.

Development

Most local development should be done using the oldest supported version of ruby. See required_ruby_version in the gemspec.

Testing

Tests can be run against different versions of Rails:

BUNDLE_GEMFILE=gemfiles/rails-6.0.rb bundle install
BUNDLE_GEMFILE=gemfiles/rails-6.0.rb bundle exec rake

To run a single test:

BUNDLE_GEMFILE=gemfiles/rails-6.0.rb \
  bundle exec ruby -I test path/to/test.rb

Bundler can be omitted, and the latest installed version of a gem dependency will be used. This is only suitable for certain unit tests.

ruby –I test path/to/test.rb

Linting

Running rake also runs a linter, rubocop. Contributions must pass both the linter and the tests. The linter can be run on its own.

BUNDLE_GEMFILE=gemfiles/rails-6.0.rb bundle exec rubocop

To run the tests without linting, use rake test.

BUNDLE_GEMFILE=gemfiles/rails-6.0.rb bundle exec rake test

Version Control Branches

We've been trying to follow the rails way, stable branches, but have been inconsistent. We should have one branche for each minor version, named like 4-3-stable. Releases should be done on those branches, not in master. So, the "stable" branches should be the only branches with release tags.

A normal release (no backport)

  1. git checkout 4-3-stable # the latest "stable" branch (see above)
  2. Update version number in lib/authlogic/version.rb
  3. In the changelog,
  • Add release date to entry
  • Add a new "Unreleased" section at top
  1. In the readme,
  • Update version number in the docs table at the top
  • For non-patch versions, update the compatibility table
  1. Commit with message like "Release 4.3.0"
  2. git tag -a -m "v4.3.0" "v4.3.0"
  3. git push --tags origin 4-3-stable # or whatever branch (see above)
  4. CI should pass
  5. gem build authlogic.gemspec
  6. gem push authlogic-4.3.0.gem
  7. update the docs in the master branch, because that's what people look at
  • git checkout master
  • git cherry-pick abcd1234 # the SHA from the stable branch
  • commit and push with [ci skip]
