A simple Battlesnake AI written in Ruby.

Visit https://github.com/battlesnakeio/community/blob/master/starter-snakes.md for API documentation and instructions for running your AI.

This AI client uses the Sinatra web framework for running your snake server.

You will need...

• A working ruby development environment (installing ruby)
• experience deploying Ruby apps to Heroku
• bundler to install Ruby dependencies

Running the Snake Locally

1. Fork this repo.

2. Clone repo to your development environment:

git clone git@github.com:<your github username>/starter-snake-ruby.git

3. Install dependencies using bundler:

bundle install

4. Run local server:

ruby app/app.rb

5. Test your snake by sending a curl to the running snake

curl -XPOST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{ "hello": "world"}' http://localhost:4567/start

Deploying to Heroku

1. Create a new Heroku app:

heroku create [APP_NAME]

2. Deploy code to Heroku servers:

git push heroku master

3. Open Heroku app in browser:

heroku open

or visit http://APP_NAME.herokuapp.com.
