rails_app_advanced_setup

# Create Rails app and skip-bundle and Test Framework creation and specifiy database
rails new app_name -T -d mysql --skip-bundle

# Copy appropriate Gemfile

# Add necessary Gems to Gemfile then run `bundle install`
bundle install

# Then init Guard
bundle exec guard init rspec

# Then Setup Rspec
rails generate rspec:install

#If needed Setup Guard extra configs from : http://ruby.railstutorial.org/chapters/static-pages#sec-guard (Listing 3.34)

# Add Spork to Gemfile and bootstrap it
spork --bootstrap

# Modify Spec Helper File accordingly

# Add --drb flag in .rspec file in rails root
echo "--drb" >> .rspec

# To run Guard with Spork
bundle exec guard init spork

# Edit Guardfile to move Spork added lines above Rspec added lines
