Running Og specs for darcs repo

#1

I’ve been trying to run the specs for Og in the darcs repo

When I execute

rake test:og

it tells me there are 0 specs, though the various spec files clearly
have tests defined.

But it also gives me repeated errors for

/home/james/data/vendor/repo.nitroproject.org/og/test/og/…/helper.rb:91:
uninitialized constant Spec::DSL (NameError)

which I think is making rspec skip attempting to run the tests.

How do I run the specs without getting that error?

I have rspec-1.1.3 installed as a gem, and did a darcs pull earlier
today for the nitro source

Thanks.

First off you probably want to read this:

http://blog.gmosx.com/2008/02/nitro-reloaded.html

My hope is to revitalize Nitro/Og by making them true community
projects.

Secondly, I’m slowly working on at least getting 0.50 released in
working order --which is why I posted the First Comes Og thread.
Please checkout the SVN repo here:

http://rubyforge.org/scm/?group_id=5023

And run ‘ruby task/test’ --and watch all the pretty errors :wink: This is
far as I’ve gotten, but at least it’s churning through the specs.

If you have any time to contribute to getting these tests passing
(please please), let me know and I’ll add you as a project developer.

However, Nitro by way of Rhino (if I’m interpreting that post correctly)
sounds kick-ass.

You are interpreting this correctly. However, the design decisions and
trade-offs will be considerably different this time.
More functional flavor, much much simpler, REST compliant. I will try to
embrace the nature of the Web (and the underlying protocols)
instead of trying to enforce a desktop-application like developer
mindset.
You can expect a first release by the end of this month, and
a series of related articles on my Blog before that.

BTW, I will continue using the Ruby version of Nitro daily for the
foreseable future and provide updates to the Repo.

Wow. I missed seeing that earlier.

Too bad; while I’ve become a fan of Ramaze, I do like the Nitro idea of
transformation pipelines. And of course I still use Og.

If George is moving over to N2, why not join in with Ramaze?

I did that …

So much red!

I have to confess to purely selfish interest here. I was trying to see
how to write specs for a new project that is using Og, and figured I
could glom examples from either Nitro or ogden.

I think any patches would be predicated on my fixing things that I need
to have work for me.

But I’ll take a look.

Looking forward to it.
