-# Hot Glue
 
-Hot Glue is an evolution of the best of the admin-style scaffold builders of the 2010s ([activeadmin](https://github.com/activeadmin/activeadmin), [rails_admin](https://github.com/sferik/rails_admin), and [active_scaffold](https://github.com/activescaffold/active_scaffold) being the most popular of those). It harnesses the power of Rails 6, Turbo-Rails, and Hotwire to deliver a lightning fast experience.
+Hot Glue is a Rails scaffold builder for the Turbo era. It is an evolution of the admin-interface style scaffolding systems of the 2010s ([activeadmin](https://github.com/activeadmin/activeadmin), [rails_admin](https://github.com/sferik/rails_admin), and [active_scaffold](https://github.com/activescaffold/active_scaffold)). 
 
-As well, its premise is a little different than the configuration-heavy admin interface toolkits. It will read your relationships and field types to generate your code for you, leaving you with a 'sourdough starter' to work from. If you modify the generated code, you're on your own if you want to preserve your changes and also re-generate scaffold after adding fields. 
+Using Turbo-Rails and Hotwire you get a lightning-fast out-of-the-box CRUD building experience. Every page displays only a list view: new and edit operations happen as 'edit-in-place', so the user never leaves the page. 
 
-It gives users full control over objects they 'own' and by default it spits out functionality giving access to all fields.

 ## TO INSTALL
 
-- Add Turbo-Rails to your Gemfile & bundle install 
+- Add `gem 'turbo-rails'` to your Gemfile & `bundle install`
   
 - Then install it with `rails turbo:install`
 
 - The Turbo install has switched your action cable settings from 'async' to Redis, so be sure to start a redis server
   
-- Add `hot_glue` to your Gemfile & `bundle install`
+- Add `gem 'hot-glue'` to your Gemfile & `bundle install`
   
-- Then install it with `rails generate hot_glue:install`
+- Run the hot-glue installation with `rails generate hot_glue:install`
 
 - Add to your `application.html.erb`
 ```
   <%= render partial: 'layouts/flash_notices' %>
 ```
 
+- Rspec setup
+  - add `gem 'rspec-rails'` to your gemfile inside :development and :test
+  - add `gem 'factory_bot_rails'` to your gemfile inside :development and :test
+  - run `rails generate rspec:install`
+  - configure Rspec to work with Factory Bot inside of `rails_helper.rb`
+    ```
+    RSpec.configure do |config|
+        // ... more rspec configuration (not shown)
+        config.include FactoryBot::Syntax::Methods
+    end
+    ```  
+  more info:
+  https://github.com/thoughtbot/factory_bot/blob/master/GETTING_STARTED.md#rspec
+
+  - for a quick Capybara login, create a support helper in `spec/support/` and log-in as your user
+    ```
+    def login_as(account)
+      visit '/accounts/sign_in'
+      within("#new_account") do
+      fill_in 'Email', with: account.email
+      fill_in 'Password', with: 'password'
+      end
+      click_button 'Log in'
+    end
+    ```
+
 - Install Bootstrap (optional)
 
 Bootstrap with Webpack: 
   - change `stylesheet_link_tag` to `stylesheet_pack_tag` in your application layout
-  - `yarn add bootstrap`
-  - create a new file at `app/javascript/css/site.scss` with this content
+  - run `yarn add bootstrap`
+  - create a new file at `app/javascript/require_bootstrap.scss` with this content
     ```
     @import "~bootstrap/scss/bootstrap.scss";
     ```
     
   - add to `app/javascript/packs/application.js` 
     ```
-    import 'css/site'
+    import 'require_bootstrap'
     ```
     
 Bootstrap with Sprockets:
-  - use bootstrap-rails gem 
-    
+  - use bootstrap-rubygem gem 
+  - see README for bootstrap-rubygem to install
+  
 
 - Install Devise or implement your own authentication
+  (or only use --gd mode, see below)
 
-- Also recommended: font-awesome-sass

 # HOW THIS GEM IS TESTED
 
-The testing of functionality-within-functionality is a little tricky and requires thinking outside the box.
+SETUP:
+• Run bundle install
+• if you can't get through see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68050807/gem-install-mimemagic-v-0-3-10-fails-to-install-on-big-sur/68170982#68170982
 
-We have two kinds of "sandboxes": a DUMMY sandbox, and also a STRAWMAN sandbox
 
 The dummy sandbox is found at `spec/dummy`
 
-The dummy lives as mostly checked- into the repository, except the folders where the generated code goes (`spec/dummy/app/views/`, `spec/dummy/app/controllers/`, `spec/dummy/specs/` are excluded from Git)
+The dummy sandbox lives as mostly checked- into the repository, **except** the folders where the generated code goes (`spec/dummy/app/views/`, `spec/dummy/app/controllers/`, `spec/dummy/specs/` are excluded from Git)
 
 When you run the **internal specs**, which you can do **at the root of this repo** using the command `rspec`, a set of specs will run to assert the generators are erroring when they are supposed to and producing code when they are supposed to.
 
-
 The DUMMY testing DOES NOT test the actual functionality of the output code (it just tests the functionality of the generation process).
 
-For this reason, I've also added something I call STRAWMAN testing, which is a set of steps that does these things:
-
-The Strawman isn't in the repository, but if you build it locally, it will create itself into
-
-`spec/strawman/`
-
-1) Builds you a strawman sandbox app from scratch, using the native `rails new`
-2) Makes a few small modifications to the new app to support this gem
-3) Create two nonsense tables called OmnitableA and OmnitableB. Each omnitable has one of each kind of field (integer, text, string, date, time, etc)
-4) In this way, it is a "Noah's Arc" testing strategy: It will build you a fully functional app using all of the feature sets of the gem.
-5) The built app itself will contain its own specs
-6) You will then cd into `spec/strawman` and run `rspec`. This second test suite now runs to full test all of the *generated* code.
