17. class MegaLotto NUMBERS = 5 def draw NUMBERS.times.map do single_draw end end def single_draw rand(0…60) end end Codebase
18. getting started $ bundle help ... bundle gem(1) Create a simple gem, suitable for development with bundler ... ! $ bundle gem mega_lotto
19. getting started . "## Gemfile "## LICENSE.txt "## README.md "## Rakefile "## lib $ "## mega_lotto $ $ &## version.rb $ &## mega_lotto.rb &## mega_lotto.gemspec 
 2 directories, 7 files Main dir. Entry file Gemspec
20. # lib/mega_lotto.rb require “mega_lotto/version" ! module MegaLotto # Your code goes here... end Entry file
21. # coding: utf-8 lib = File.expand_path('../lib', __FILE__) $LOAD_PATH.unshift(lib) unless $LOAD_PATH.include?(lib) require 'mega_lotto/version' gemspec
22. spec.files = `git ls-files`.split($/) spec.executables = spec.files.grep(%r{^bin/}) { |f| File.basename(f) } spec.test_files = spec.files.grep(%r{^(test|spec|features)/}) spec.require_paths = ["lib"] gemspec
23. spec.add_development_dependency "bundler", "~> 1.3" spec.add_development_dependency "rake" spec.add_development_dependency "rspec" spec.add_dependency "rails" gemspec
24. # lib/mega_lotto/version.rb module MegaLotto VERSION = "0.0.1" end version
25. # Rakefile require "bundler/gem_tasks" Rakefile $ rake -T rake build # Build mega_lotto-0.0.1.gem into the pkg directory rake install # Build and install mega_lotto-0.0.1.gem into system gems rake release # Create tag v0.0.1 and build and push mega_lotto-0.0.1.gem to Rubygem
26. Release! $ rake release mega_lotto 0.0.1 built to pkg/mega_lotto-0.0.1.gem. Tagged v0.0.1. Pushed git commits and tags. Pushed mega_lotto 0.0.1 to rubygems.org.
