AutoGemUpdater

Auto Gem Updater helps you to keep your gems, up to date.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'auto_gem_updater'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install auto_gem_updater

Configuration

Configuration options are: pre_checks, outdated_options, ignore_gems

To config these options add a file to your config/initializers and call it auto_gem_updater.rb This file should look like:

AutoGemUpdater.configure do |config|
  config.pre_checks = ['bundle exec rspec']
end

each of the options above can be configured inside the above block (e.g config.pre_checks = ['bundle exec rspec'])

pre_checks

pre_checks is expected to be an array of all the checks you want performed before an update to a gem is commit. The default is an empty array.

For example ['bundle exec rspec', 'bundle exec rake routes',...]

outdated_options

outdated_options is expected to be an array of options that you want to be passed to bundle outdated any of the options form the docs are supported. The default is ['strict'].

For example ['strict', 'minor']

ignore_gems

ignore_gems is expected to be an array of gems that you do not want the auto gem updater to attempt to update. The default is an empty array.

For example ['nokogiri', 'rails',...]

Usage

Once the gem is installed it will add to some rake tasks that will allow you to update your gems.

Update

rake auto_gem_updater:update is the main rake task. It will first create a branch, called auto_gem_updates_ + todays date. It will then loop over all the gems that it finds out of date according to the outdated_options each time running all the pre_checks specified in the initializer and only if they succeed add the updated gem version to git (otherwise it resets to before trying to update the gem).

Outdated

rake auto_gem_updater:outdated will list out all the gems that the update command will attempt to update.
