Festive Errors is a Rails gem that spices up the Rails error page with fun holiday themes. We all like to do a little coding around the holidays. Get into the holiday spirit with Festive Errors!
Debugging an exception in the month of October.
The gem adds a CSS theme override to the Rails debug page when your app raises an error in development. All you need to do is install it.
Add the gem to your Gemfile:
bundle add festive_errors --group development
This is a new gem. The themes and holidays are limited, and it needs tests. Contributions are welcome!
git checkout -b my_branch
git commit -am "Happy Hanukkah!"
git push origin my_branch
Run the local Rails server in the gem directory to raise a test exception:
git clone git@github.com:honeybadger-io/festive_errors.git
cd festive_errors
bundle install
bin/rails server
...then visit http://localhost:3000/
gem install gem-release
gem bump -v [version] -t -r
git push origin main --tags
