Copy/pasting error messages? It's so 2015!

Fuuu is a development tool that automates Stack Overflow searches.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'fuuu'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install fuuu

Usage

When you have a line of code that throws an exception and you can't figure out why, put that line in a block and pass it to fuuu.

nil.a_method_that_throws_undefined_method
# => NoMethodError: undefined method `a_method_that_throws_undefined_method' for nil:NilClass

fuuu { nil.a_method_that_throws_undefined_method }
# It will open http://stackoverflow.com/search?q=[ruby]"undefined method `a_method_that_throws_undefined_method' for nil:NilClass" in your default browser

If you forget how many 'u's there are, put as much as you want.

fuuu { nil.foo }
# works

fu { nil.foo }
# works

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu { nil.foo }
# works
