WIP

Note:

must be checked and tested because of some gems issues.

What is it?

A nix-shell template to set a Ruby on Rails development environment up with direnv integration (if installed).

Built gathering inspiration from several sources, it makes available:

• unstable.ruby_3_0
• unstable.rubyPackages_3_0.rails
• unstable.rubyPackages.solargraph (LSP)
• environment opinions:
  • several environment variables are set
  • Gemfile is created (for solargraph to launch)
  • gems are installed locally (in project folder)
  • ...
• unstable.postgresql_14 setup
  • check the relevant Phoenix nix-shell section
    • TODO: complete PostgreSQL section here
