ruby-rails orb

ruby-rails orb is a CircleCI orb that is optimized for DLSS Infrastructure Ruby / Rails projects.

This includes:

• Using Postgres for a database.
• Using Code Climate for code coverage.
• Validating openapi specifications.
• Building Docker images.

Requirements

• Code climate reporter test id added as a CircleCI project environment variable as CC_TEST_REPORTER_ID.
• Docker username and password added to a CircleCI context as DOCKER_USER and DOCKER_PASS.

Development

Requirements

• CircleCI CLI with a personal access token

Validating the orb

$ circleci orb pack src > orb.yml
$ circleci orb validate orb.yml

Testing orb changes

Orb changes can be testing using an inline orb:

1. Make your changes.
2. Pack the orb with circleci orb pack src > orb.yml.
3. In the config.yml of a project repository, replace the orb reference (e.g., ruby-rails: sul-dlss/ruby-rails@2.0.0) to an inline orb copied from orb.yml:

orbs:
  ruby-rails:
    orbs:
      docker: circleci/docker@2.0.1
      node: circleci/node@3.0
      ruby: circleci/ruby@1.2.0
      browser-tools: circleci/browser-tools@1.2.3
    executors:
      ruby:
        description: Ruby-only executor.
  ...

4. Commit the test config.yml to a branch and let it execute on CircleCI.

How to Publish

• Create and push a branch with your new features.
• When ready to publish a new production version, create a Pull Request from feature branch to main.
• The title of the pull request must contain a special semver tag: [semver:<segment>] where <segment> is replaced by one of the following values.

Increment	Description
major	Issue a 1.0.0 incremented release
minor	Issue a x.1.0 incremented release
patch	Issue a x.x.1 incremented release
skip	Do not issue a release

Example: [semver:major]

• Squash and merge. Ensure the semver tag is preserved and entered as a part of the commit message.
• On merge, after manual approval, the orb will automatically be published to the Orb Registry.
