What is the preferred flow for accepting fixtures

More generally, I think we should offer a bit better workflow in the readme than 'you move the file when you like it'.

OMG Yes!

I use the command line tool with vimdiff. It works seamlessly for me.

I have a key mapped to this in my vimrc:

map <leader>v :!approvals verify -d vimdiff -a<cr>

I run my tests from within vim, so I'm already in vim when I get the failure. When I see that I have approvals failures, I hit <leader>v, which opens the vimdiff screen, and I can view the changes.

To quit out of vimdiff I say :qa, at which point the script kicks back in and says do you want to approve this? The default is no, so if I just hit enter, it goes to the next failure. If I say y then it moves the file, and then moves to the next failure.

I wrote a custom vimdiff colorscheme because the default one made me anxious.

$ cat ~/.vim/colors/simplediff.vim 
" http://guns.github.com/xterm-color-table.vim/images/xterm-color-table.png
hi clear
" Normal black, white
hi Normal ctermfg=0 ctermbg=15
" Line number dark gray
hi LineNr ctermfg=8
" NonText dark blue
hi NonText ctermfg=12
" DiffText red, white
hi DiffText cterm=none ctermfg=15 ctermbg=1
" DiffChange black, light gray
hi DiffChange ctermfg=0 ctermbg=7
" DiffAdd white, dark gray
hi DiffAdd ctermfg=15 ctermbg=8
" DiffDelete blue, white
hi DiffDelete ctermfg=12 ctermbg=15

I've added a bit of documentation about the CLI in the README. Do you think this is sufficient?

[markijbema]

I think it is. From reading it it's only unclear to me what setting ask to false would do. Does it accept everything or refuse everything?

[kytrinyx]

Ah, I'll clarify.

Ok, cool. I've updated it for now. I'm closing this, but I'm planning on doing a proper overhaul in April so that I can get this thing to 1.0.
