Load a project specific .irbrc in your Rails 3 project

gistfile1.rb

# Add this method the MyApp::Application class (in config/application.rb)

def load_console(sandbox=false)
  super
  project_specific_irbrc = File.join(Rails.root, ".irbrc")
  puts "Loading project specific .irbrc ..."
  load(project_specific_irbrc) if File.exists?(project_specific_irbrc)
end

Holy shit I worship these hacks.

Trying to get my irbrc file to load inside a container without molesting the Dockerfile.... glarrrg

Thanks :-)
