Easily generate a Rails 3 RC application with RSpec, Factory Girl, Haml, and jQuery in one line:

% rails new my_app -J -T -m \
http://github.com/bendycode/rails3-app/raw/master/app.rb

Use this generator file instead:

% rails new my_app -J -T -m \
http://github.com/bendycode/rails3-app/raw/master/cuke.rb

We love rvm, so the application has an .rvmrc generated to specify a gemset.

This also gives you the Factory Girl and Haml Rails 3 generators — the generators for RSpec are in the RSpec gem — so that your factories and views are generated using Factory Girl and Haml, and that all your generated tests are specs. These generators are from the haml-rails and factory_girl_generator gems.

Since the Rails helper javascript_include_tag :defaults is looking for Prototype, we change the default JavaScript includes to be jQuery.

We love git, so the application has a git repo initialized with all the initial changes staged.

After the application has been generated, there are a few final command to finish the install, check the output!
