Acme (as in Acme Inc., because I refuse to call it “Sinatra Template”) is an opinionated template for Sinatra. It makes a handful of assumptions about what one would use in a real world Sinatra project, such as using Sequel (with PostgreSQL) and ERB (via Erubis, a faster implementation of ERB).

git clone [email protected]:cesarfigueroa/acme.git
rm .git/

Alternatively, you can download a zip of the repository, and skip the steps above. Inside the repository folder, you can remove all the .gitkeep files by executing the following:

find . -type f -name ".gitkeep" -exec rm {} \;

And finally:

bundle install

Done.

Acme has a handful of conventions, many of which were borrowed from Rails. The less Rails-like ones are listed below.

• Sinatra conditions are stored in app/helpers/conditions
• Routes are added in config/routes.rb
• Middleware is configured in config/middleware.rb
