Hyperloop 🚄

Speed up your new Rails 8.0 projects with a preconfigured set of tools !

If you don't have yet the project cloned, fetch it from remote URL:

$ rails new myapp -m https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anthony-robin/hyperloop/master/template.rb

If you already have it cloned:

$ rails new myapp -m hyperloop/template.rb

Generator will ask several questions to refine configuration:

• What port the server should run (default: 3000)
• What language the app should handle (default: en)
• Is an authentication needed ? (default: true)
  • If yes, does an admin dashboard is needed ? (default: true)

$ rails new myapp -m hyperloop/template.rb -- --port=4000

Wait for the end of the installer, then start it with:

$ bin/dev

• simple_form for handling forms inputs
• pagy for pagination
• meta-tags for SEO friendly
• action_policy as authorization actions verifier (only if authentication is yes)
• pretender to sign in as another user (only if admin dashboard is yes)
• dotenv-rails to handle .env files
• mission_control-jobs to manage processed jobs (unless --skip-active-job flag)
• rails-i18n if locale is different of English

• annotaterb to print model database structure (opinionated configuration)
• bullet to track N+1 queries
• chusaku to print routes URL above controller actions
• letter_opener_web to intercept emails and print them in browser (unless --skip-action-mailer flag)
• rubocop and its extensions for coding conventions (opinionated) (unless --skip-rubocop flag)
• ribbonit to display Ruby and Rails information
• spark to reload browser page on HTML, CSS, JS modifications.

• simplecov to get code coverage of the app
• ffaker to generate fake data (seed database)

• PicoCSS as a minimalist prototyping framework.
• daisyUI as a minimalist framework on top of Tailwind (required --css=tailwind flag option).

• Rails authentication comes with session, registration and reset password features preconfigured as well as related mailers.

• A minimal admin dashboard is created if requested on generator prompt. This feature includes the pretender gem to sign in as another user to manage it easily.

• SEO is preconfigured to work in any pages by default and title/description can be specified directly in seo.{locale}.yml file.

• Default browser confirm modal as been replaced with a pretty and friendly one following excellent gorails tutorial.

• Database is seed with default users corresponding to each access level.

• If using postgres adapter, database can be dockerized using:

  $ docker-compose up -d

Project is compatible for english and french locales out of the box.

See Github project for coming roadmap.

Hyperloop is inspired by:

• excid3/jumpstart for its starter template
• bdavidxyz/tailstart for its starter instructions
