Great Ruby tracing gem?

Question

Read about this one:

http://unroller.rubyforge.org/

http://github.com/TylerRick/unroller

Look at the pictures!

Unfortunately, it's very outdated and not actively maintained.

I wonder, are there any other tools similar to this one that can show me what code was just executed, in what file, what the output was and what the return value was?

Would be so much better than tracing everything manually between the Terminal and a bunch of Ruby files!

Answer 1

not as nice as unroller, there is tracer

http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Ruby_Programming/Standard_Library/Tracer

and my backtracer gem I believe has a "--tracer" option

http://github.com/rdp/backtracer That's about it though.
