Is there any coordination with the authors of jeweler, bones, etc. so
that the Rake files those tools generate can be updated to rspec2
compatibility?

Speaking of which, the Upgrade.markdown didn’t include enough
information to get my existing Rakefile (created by bones) working. I’m
including the changes I had to make in this email so other folks
searching the ML will find it.

Original:

require ‘spec/rake/spectask’

Spec::Rake::SpecTask.new do |t|
t.spec_opts = [‘–options’, “"spec/spec.opts"”]
t.spec_files = FileList[‘spec/**/*.rb’]
end

For rspec2 compatibility:

require ‘rspec/core/rake_task’

RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new do |t|
t.rspec_opts = [“-c”, “-f progress”, “-r ./spec/spec_helper.rb”]
t.pattern = ‘spec/**/*_spec.rb’
end

Also, as mentioned in the Upgrade.markdown file, I had to modify my
spec_helper.rb to use Rspec.configure instead of the original
Spec::Runner.configure syntax.

Not yet. If any of them reach out to me I’ll be glad to do what I can.

For rspec2 compatibility:

require ‘rspec/core/rake_task’

RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new do |t|
t.rspec_opts = [“-c”, “-f progress”, “-r ./spec/spec_helper.rb”]
t.pattern = ‘spec/**/*_spec.rb’
end

I’ll update the upgrade file. Thx.

I added an issue to track this:
Add info about upgrading rake task to Upgrade.markdown · Issue #173 · rspec/rspec-core · GitHub. Please feel free to
submit a patch :slight_smile:
