Tanooki Rails Template

This repository holds the Rails application template referred to in our kickoff developer guide.

Usage

2. install rails and bundler globally

   gem update --system
   gem install rails --no-document
   gem update bundler

3. Clone or create a directory for your rails app and move into it
4. Run rails new with the template with these commands:

   # make sure you're up to date!
   rails --version 
   rails new example-project-name \
         --database=postgresql \
         --skip-javascript \
         --skip-test \
         --skip-action-mailbox \
         --skip-action-text \
         --skip-jbuilder \
         --template=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TanookiLabs/tanooki-rails-template/master/template.rb
