Brick Keeper

Description

Brick Keeper is a basic command line tool for keeping track of LEGO bircks and how much they were bought for.

Installation

• Clone the repo
• Make sure you have Ruby and SQLite
• cd into the directory
• Run bundle install to install Ruby dependencies
• Run rake db:migrate to setup the database

Start

Start Brick Keeper with ruby brick_keeper.rb

Insert manually

Colors and part types are currently accessible only through relations.

Use db.relations[:colors].insert(name: 'Dark Tan') to insert a color.

Use db.relations[:part_types].insert(name: 'Plate 1 x 2') to insert a part type.

Create a lot manually using resolve(:lot_repo).create(color_name, part_type_name, quantity, unitprice). Unitprice is optional.

Get info about a part

Use info(color_name, part_type_name) to get formatted info about the part printed to the console. Info includes color, part type, total quantity and average price per piece.

Use find_part(color_name, part_type_name) to get the full object representing the part.

Import from BrickLink

• Open the BrickLink order in a web browser
• Run the Javascript in parse_order.js in the browser console
• Copy the output of the Javascript from the browser console into Brick Keeper and assign it to a variable
• Run the import with Import.call(data), where data is the variable from previous step

Missing colors and part types will be created automatically.
