I just wrote a blog entry on a convenience command for Ruby on Rails... but I'm not sure to whom I should address this. I'd like to see it added to the default Rails bundle that ships with future TextMate versions if others find it useful. How should I go about submitting this for review?
Thanks, Duane Johnson
P.S. Blog entry is at http://blog.inquirylabs.com/
That's a great addition ! However, I noticed that the command (as well at the test unit one) does not work on my project because I have spaces in the path... I got it working after placing a symlink to the directory directly under /.
Perhaps we can find a way to fix this before doing a commit to the repository ? We could fix the other command as well.

Hi Duane,
Thanks for sharing this bundle, it's fantastic!

I'm curious about bundle development as well. I've been creating various snippets and macros for Rails and would like to share them. I started out with the bundle on the rails wiki, but that is old. If there's not a central place for this, we should start one.
If anyone's interested I posted a few snippets for migrations on my blog at http://sami.samhuri.net/articles/2006/02/18/textmate-snippets- for-rails-migrations .
(Please let me know if there are any problems with the site, I only started on the design last night and it is far from finished)

TextMate should come with an updated Rails bundle.
As for a central location for bundles, there is the svn repository: http://anon:anon@macromates.com/svn/Bundles/trunk/Bundles/
However, I’d rather not have the bundles turn into a repository of hundreds of snippets, macros, commands, and similiar contributed by a dozen different people [1].
Snippets should be trivial to create, so the default bundles should just have some near universal useful stuff, and “show the way”. The more default items a bundle ships with, the harder it likely is for the user to learn to use it, and the less inclined the user likely is to start expand the bundle with the stuff he would find useful (using the coding style, tab triggers, and similar, that he finds to be in his taste).
The wiki [2] however is free for anyone to edit.
That said, please do keep sending useful stuff to this list (or links to blog posts about it)!
[1] I know, this has already happened to some of the bundles :) [2] http://macromates.com/wiki/Main/HomePage

Sending to this list is generally a good first step :)
But is this command now superseded by the more general syncPeople bundle?

That's good to hear. :) I'll try to go through what's in svn this week and make sure it's all up to date.

Clever thinking. I don't know if I would have thought of that.

Will do! Thanks.

Yes :) "Release early, release often" they say. I just started to fall in love with the flexibility of TextMate and couldn't help but implement all of the commands that were on our "wishlist" for Rails development.
More coming soon.

Why not merge your syncPeople bundle with the Rails bundle in the repos ? There is only one command in the Rails bundle right now... a few more won't do any harm :D
Looking forward to these great additions.
More coming soon.
