Using the Capture plugin

INSTALL

Only tested with Rails 4.2 and Rails 5.1 (should work with any Rails 4.2+ application). Only tested with PostgreSQL.

Add to your

Gemfile

file:

ruby
group :development do
  gem "localtower"
end

If you want the latest master branch, add to your

Gemfile

file following:

ruby
group :development do
  gem "localtower", github: "damln/localtower"
end

Run command in your terminal:

bash
bundle install

Add to your

config/routes.rb

: ```ruby MyApp::Application.routes.draw do if Rails.env.development? and defined?(Localtower) mount Localtower::Engine, at: "localtower" end

# Your other routes here: # ... end ```

Usage

Open your browser at http://localhost:3000/localtower.

Logger Usage (Capture plugin)

You can put this line anywhere in your code:

Localtower::Plugins::Capture.new(self, binding).save

For example:

def my_method
  user = User.find(1)
  some_data = {foo: "bar"}

  Localtower::Plugins::Capture.new(self, binding).save
end

Then go to the Localtower intercave here: http://localhost:3000/localtower/logs and you will see the variables

user

and

some_data

in the UI.

Notes for the Capture plugin:

The value for each variable will try to call

.to_json

. If you have a huge collection of models likes

@users

you will see all the collection as an Array.

RSpec and Contribute

If you want to contribute to the gem:

Create a

spec/dummy/.env

file with the credentials to your PostgreSQL Database. It should look like this:

LOCALTOWER_PG_USERNAME="admin"
LOCALTOWER_PG_PASSWORD="root_or_smething"

Run the spec:

bash
bundle install
bundle exec rspec spec/

Notes: Tests are currently very slow because this is testing rails commands so it boots the framework for each test. Zeus or spring should be introduced.

Contribute

Thanks for reporting issues, I'll do my best.
