# Gemspec Gemspec is a convention-over-configuration library for creating gems. ## Gemspec::boilerplate The main functionality of the libary is the `Gemspec::boilerplate` method, which when called with a `Gem::Specification` as its argument, adds standard boilerplate to your gemspec. It assumes you're using `Git`, and it infers most of the gemspec boilerplate from: 1) the name\* of your gem, which defaults to the name of your project's directory 2) your git data Additionally, it: 1) `git init`s your project directory unless it's already been initialized 2) scaffolds out the files and directories your `lib` folder should contain based on your project's name, unless those files and directories already exist. \*The naming convetions it uses are those laid out in http://guides.rubygems.org/name-your-gem/. ## Usage gem install gemspec
