@klaustopher suggested that instead of classes, exogenesis "adapters" could be written with a DSL. I thought about it this weekend, and I think that this can be nicely combined with the methods of the executor. So for example this is the translation of the install task from Vundle.
# Define the Vundle Adapter
Exogenesis.describe :vundle do
# Describe the install task
install do
execute_interactive "Install", "vim +BundleInstall\! +qall"
execute_interactive "Clean", "vim +BundleClean\! +qall"
end
end
In this case the setup task would automatically call start_section with :vundle as its argument.
But a task like execute would still need to take a block with Ruby code to check for certain things to skip the task.
