Rails Source Code Annotations
Posted By Slobodan Kovacevic on March 4, 2007
I’ve been catching up on my blog reading and I’ve stumbled upon an article describing a great new feature in Edge Rails that lets you add annotations to your code. You can use TODO, OPTIMIZE and FIXME to mark parts of your code. Then you can use rake notes to list annotations – which is great since you won’t miss any of the notes you made.
The only problem is that this is still in only in Edge Rails, i.e. it’s not yet in stable Rails release. But there’s a really simple way to add source code annotations rake task to non-Edge Rails app:
svn export http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/trunk/railties/lib/tasks/annotations.rake \\ lib/tasks/annotations.rake
For more information about Rails source code annotations see Ryan’s blog.
