RSpec Buddy

A small Sublime Text package to boost your productivity when using RSpec.

A modified fork of https://github.com/fnando/better-rspec-for-sublime-text.

Features

Inherited from Better RSpec

• command and shortcut for toggling between implementation/spec files (see demo)
• syntax highlighting

RSpec Buddy exclusive ⭐️

• describe block generation for each of your classes and methods when creating a new spec file (see demo)
• configuration file
• some handy little tweaks

Toggling between implementation/spec

The default binding is super+..

{
  "keys": ["super+."],
  "command": "rspec_toggle"
}

You can change it to whatever you want by adding the following snippet to your Keybindings file.

{
  "keys": ["ctrl+alt+down"],
  "command": "rspec_toggle"
}

Describe block generation

• infers the class/module name from the implementation file path to put at RSpec.describe
• creates a describe block for each method from the implementation file

Configuration file

Reads an optional .rspec-buddy file so you can customize the path to ignore when looking for spec and implementation files

Suppose you have the following structure:

project/
  lib/
    whatever/
      file.rb
  spec/
    file_spec.rb

By invoking the rspec_toggle command, this plugin will look for the spec file at project/spec/whatever/file_spec.rb(by default lib/ will always be ignored).

But you can create a project/.rspec-buddy file with the content lib/whatever/ for instance, then, the plugin will look for the spec file at project/spec/file_spec.rb (ignoring lib/whatever/).

Handy tweaks

• does not add require 'spec_helper'/require 'rails_helper' to spec files as you can keep your tests clean by putting them in the .rspec file.
• remove all snippets from the Better RSpec as I believe you should create the ones you like.

Syntax Detection

The best way of setting the syntax automatically is using the ApplySyntax package. Just install it and you're done!
