# Ditty
Ditty provides an extra layer of functionality on top of [Sinatra](http://sinatrarb.com/) to give structure and basic tools to an already great framework. You can get a new application, with user authentication and basic CRUD / REST interfaces, up and running in minutes.
## Installation
Add these lines to your application's Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'ditty'
gem 'sqlite3'
```
You can replace `sqlite3` with a DB adapter of your choice.
And then execute:
```bash
bundle install
```
Or install it yourself as:
```bash
gem install ditty
```
## Usage
1. Add the components to your rack config file. See the included [`config.ru`](https://github.com/EagerELK/ditty/blob/master/config.ru) file for an example setup
2. Set the DB connection as the `DATABASE_URL` ENV variable: `DATABASE_URL=sqlite://development.db`
3. Prepare the Ditty folder: `bundle exec ditty prep`
3. Run the Ditty migrations: `bundle exec ditty migrate`
4. Run the Ditty server: `bundle exec ditty server`
### Components
The application can now be further extended by creating [components](https://github.com/EagerELK/ditty/wiki/Creating-a-Component).
### Rubocop Cops
Ditty provides a number of [Rubocop](https://github.com/rubocop-hq/rubocop) cops
to ensure that the Ditty framework is used correctly. Enable this by adding the
following to your `.rubocop.yml` file:
```yaml
require: ditty/rubocop
```
You can run Ditty specific cops as follows:
```bash
bundle exec rubocop --only Ditty
```
Adding the `-a` flag to the invocation will automatically fix some of the issues
for you, but, as always, ensure you have a working copy of your code before
running this.
## Development
After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
