RGSOC Main Blog Post

Team Bundler's blog post for the main RGSOC blog

Please send a copy of your blogpost to [email protected] so that we can give you feedback on that. Ideally this would be Friday. After that you can send a pull request and we'll merge it for you :)

These are some points we are really curious for you to cover:

  • a short review of what happened so far or what happened this week

  • how you heard about RGSoC and why you applied

Prime

Joyce's Friday

I removed the line spaces from the version_message method and in the source/git.rb file. Moved the rspec tests for gems, git, and source to the correct file in the spec/update directory and the proper place in the file.

Add rspec test for when you run bundle outdated with the wrong gem name it returns non-zero exit code.

Get Smart (Agent 44)

My new test for the warning that you have multiple gems. I forgot that you have to run the command in the test so it will see the error. That is what bundle :install is doing in there.

describe "#gem" do
    it "will display a Warning if the gem is duplicated" do
      gemfile <<-G

gem 'rails', '~> 4.0.0'

Flying to Denver Colorado

LAX - United 10:55 am Arrive 2:13 pm

My flight didn't leave 2:30. Every 15 minutes or so the flight was delayed more. I met Adam Camras [email protected]. He works at a company called Lawgical. They are a Ruby shop. He said I should give them a call and see if they need interns. Next I met Steve Zawaski. He is a pro triathlete who was returning from a half iron-man triathlon in Brisbon Australia. He is also a software developer who mainly works in C#. We also rode the bus to Boulder together. We talked about Ruby and Lisp. Ryan Angilly, who is my guide and my host met me at the bus station and we went straight to the speaker's dinner which I was invited to attend as a scholarship winner. I met other scholarship winners, speakers and sponsors.

Week 10 Day 48 Friday

I researched and reviewed the workshops and presentations for the conference I am attending next week, Rock Mountain Ruby in Boulder, Colorado. This conference wasn't on the RGSOC list but I found it and noticed that they were offering a scholarship for a free ticket and a guide for the conference. I applied and I won it!

There are going to be around eight speakers a day and there workshops on the first day. I am very excited to take the workshop on Git and Github. and the Arduino workshop. I am also very excited to see one of the people who has been helping us this summer, Andy Delcambre, speak about Ruby Systems and Katrina Owens speak on refactoring.

This is the first Rubycentric conference I will have attended. I hope to learn a lot, meet some more fellow Rubyists and get inspired to keep on coding long past the RGSOC.

I also worked on getting caught up

Week 10 Day 47 Thursday

I added GistBox to organize my gists. Now I can sort through my gists so much easier. I had created so many that they were getting unwieldy.

I was working looking at some code in bundler and I noticed a lot of blocks that started with begin and ended with end. They all had several exceptions in them. I researched that and read about it for a while. begin end

Tonight the meetup group I organize met for the monthly meetup. The theme of the night was "How to Build a Programmer from Scratch." It was a really inspiring evening. Almost the entire summer class from General Assembly attended to watch their class mates do their first public presentation. Machiko Yasuda, Theresa Luu, Emilia Kubo Kirschenbaum & Shana Weitzen all talked about the projects they did in GA and about studying
