[ruby-talk:444489] Why doesn't Ruby offer a more user-friendly installer for macOS?
by Mark Zhang 28 May '24

28 May '24

Hey Ruby geeks： Why doesn't Ruby offer a more user-friendly installer for macOS? On Linux, software installation through the package manager is straightforward and effective. On Windows, Ruby can be easily installed using the RubyInstaller from rubyinstaller.org, which is also quite user-friendly. However, on macOS, the process becomes more cumbersome: - Python can be installed via the package from python.org/downloads <https://www.python.org/downloads/>. - Java is made accessible through a .dmg file available at java.com/en/download <https://www.java.com/en/download/>. In contrast, installing Ruby requires a preliminary step of installing Homebrew, as directed on ruby-lang.org <https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/installation/#homebrew>. After Homebrew is set up, users must then add libraries and compile Ruby from the source code, which can be a daunting task for many. This complexity can be a barrier for users. For instance, if you've developed a Ruby-based game prototype, explaining how to set it up on a new machine without pre-installed Ruby is challenging. On the other hand, installing Java to play a game like Minecraft is a much simpler process for end-users.

[ruby-talk:444486] Glimmer DSL for WX 0.1.0 Hello, Data-Binding!
by Andy Maleh 24 May '24

The wxRuby3 Ruby binding for wxWidgets (a very mature native cross-platform GUI toolkit) finally went version 1.0, so Glimmer DSL for WX, which runs on top of wxRuby3, has been upgraded to use version 1.0 by default. Also, a new feature has been added that is already available in most other Glimmer GUI DSLs: Unidirectional/Bidirectional Data-Binding.

[ruby-talk:444485] [ANN] minitest 5.23.1 Released
by Ryan Davis 21 May '24

21 May '24

minitest version 5.23.1 has been released! * home: <https://github.com/minitest/minitest> * bugs: <https://github.com/minitest/minitest/issues> * rdoc: <https://docs.seattlerb.org/minitest> * clog: <https://github.com/minitest/minitest/blob/master/History.rdoc> * vim: <https://github.com/sunaku/vim-ruby-minitest> * emacs: <https://github.com/arthurnn/minitest-emacs> minitest provides a complete suite of testing facilities supporting TDD, BDD, mocking, and benchmarking. "I had a class with Jim Weirich on testing last week and we were allowed to choose our testing frameworks. Kirk Haines and I were paired up and we cracked open the code for a few test frameworks... I MUST say that minitest is *very* readable / understandable compared to the 'other two' options we looked at. Nicely done and thank you for helping us keep our mental sanity." -- Wayne E. Seguin minitest/test is a small and incredibly fast unit testing framework. It provides a rich set of assertions to make your tests clean and readable. minitest/spec is a functionally complete spec engine. It hooks onto minitest/test and seamlessly bridges test assertions over to spec expectations. minitest/benchmark is an awesome way to assert the performance of your algorithms in a repeatable manner. Now you can assert that your newb co-worker doesn't replace your linear algorithm with an exponential one! minitest/mock by Steven Baker, is a beautifully tiny mock (and stub) object framework. minitest/pride shows pride in testing and adds coloring to your test output. I guess it is an example of how to write IO pipes too. :P minitest/test is meant to have a clean implementation for language implementors that need a minimal set of methods to bootstrap a working test suite. For example, there is no magic involved for test-case discovery. "Again, I can't praise enough the idea of a testing/specing framework that I can actually read in full in one sitting!" -- Piotr Szotkowski Comparing to rspec: rspec is a testing DSL. minitest is ruby. -- Adam Hawkins, "Bow Before MiniTest" minitest doesn't reinvent anything that ruby already provides, like: classes, modules, inheritance, methods. This means you only have to learn ruby to use minitest and all of your regular OO practices like extract-method refactorings still apply. Changes: ### 5.23.1 / 2024-05-21 * 1 bug fix: * Fully qualify the Queue class to avoid conflicts with other libraries. (rafaelfranca)
