Directory structure best practice?

1

Hi all!

What are the best practices concerning directory structures for Ruby programs?

I want to run tests using Cucumber and RSpec, so referring to the RSpec book I created a features/ and spec/ folders for the tests, a lib/ folder for my code, and a bin/ folder for all that shall be executed.

What do I need to roll out my own Gem, if needed? What is the expected distribution format of a gem?

Also, is there a way to pack the app for distribution for Linux, Windows, and Mac?

This should be really helpful to you:

Also, look in gems you have installed.

Below here is what you asked for, typical and simple:

MyGem/
  README
  implDemo.rb
  lib/
    MyGem.rb
    MyGem/
      gemthis.rb
      gemthat.rb
  test/
    unit.rb

You can , if you're feeling lazy, install a gem called "jem" which
creates a typical structure the same as the one already mentioned.
