? We've also built Jumpstart Pro which is a version of Jumpstart that includes payments with Stripe & Braintree, team accounts, TailwindCSS, and much more.
Jumpstart Rails Template
All your Rails apps should start off with a bunch of great defaults. It's like Laravel Spark, for Rails.
Note: Requires Rails 5.2 or higher
Want to see how it works? Check out the Jumpstart walkthrough video:
Getting Started
Jumpstart is a Rails template, so you pass it in as an option when creating a new app.
Requirements
You'll need the following installed to run the template successfully:
- Ruby 2.5 or higher
- Redis - For ActionCable support
- bundler -
gem install bundler - rails -
gem install rails - Yarn -
brew install yarnor Install Yarn - Foreman (optional) -
gem install foreman- helps run all your
processes in development
Creating a new app
rails new myapp -d postgresql -m https://raw.githubusercontent.com/excid3/jumpstart/master/template.rb
Or if you have downloaded this repo, you can reference template.rb locally:
rails new myapp -d postgresql -m template.rb
To run your app, use foreman start.
This will run Procfile.dev via foreman start -f Procfile.dev as configured by the .foreman file and will launch the development processes rails server, sidekiq, and webpack-dev-server processes. You can also run them in separate terminals manually if you prefer.
A separate Procfile is generated for deploying to production.
Authenticate with social networks
We use the encrypted Rails Credentials for app_id and app_secrets when it comes to omniauth authentication. Edit them as so:
EDITOR=vim rails credentials:edit
Make sure your file follow this structure:
secret_key_base: [your-key]
development:
github:
app_id: something
app_secret: something
options:
scope: 'user:email'
whatever: true
production:
github:
app_id: something
app_secret: something
options:
scope: 'user:email'
whatever: true
With the environment, the service and the app_id/app_secret. If this is done correctly, you should see login links
for the services you have added to the encrypted credentials using EDITOR=vim rails credentials:edit
Cleaning up
rails db:drop
spring stop
cd ..
rm -rf myapp
