# Writer This gem adds a command line utility that writes a new file for you. ## Doesn't touch do that? Yes, but with this gem you can simply type `wr` and it defaults to a markdown file named after today's date. ## Installation Create a bundler Gemfile and add this: gem 'writer' And then execute: $ bundle Or install it yourself as: $ gem install writer ## Usage ``` $ wr #=> Creates a MarkDown file named after today's date ## e.g. `2012-01Jan-03.md` $ wr hello #=> Creates a file named `hello` $ wr hello world #=> Creates a file named `hello` with the content `world` ``` ## Now supports the Ruby interactive shell! ``` $ irb > require 'writer' #=> true > wr 'hello.txt', 'world' #=>"" > File.open('hello.txt').read #=> "world\n" ``` ## Use a template The Writer will copy a template file's contents into your new file if you configure the template file's path. Add `config/writer.yml` to the root directory of your project or journal Create a file named whatever you want, the example uses `.template` in the project root ```yml template_path: .template ``` ## Configuration ```yml # in config/writer.yml # default config: namer: 'Writer::FileNamer' creator: 'Writer::FileCreator' logger: 'Writer::Logger' date_format: '%Y-%m%b-%d' log_level: 2 # 0 - err, 1 - warn, 2 - info, 3 - debug template_path: '' ``` ## Contributing Please provide a spec covering your feature or bug fix, thank you! 1.
