In various tracks, I sometimes see contributors forget to do this, and
perhaps one cause is that the requirement isn't mentioned here (various
tracks link to this document to explain how to port an exercise to their
track).
Luckily, this gets caught by configlet (assuming the track is running
Travis CI and hasn't removed configlet), but it would be good to let
contributors to know of this up front.
Decision: This text explcitly mentions the `"exercises"` key, rather
than the deprecated `"problems"` key.
The following procedure:
gem install trackler --ignore-dependencies
# substitute your Ruby version for $RUBY_VERSION
grep -L exercises ~/.gem/ruby/$RUBY_VERSION/gems/trackler-2.0.6.10/tracks/*/config.json
says that only two tracks lack the `exercises` key: Ceylon and PL/SQL
* a PR exercism/plsql#16 is open for PL/SQL
* a PR exercism/ceylon#8 has already been
merged in Ceylon and will go out in the next Trackler update.
Therefore, it almost certainly safe to use the `exercises` key!
One weakness is that this text doesn't explicitly mention the `slug` or
`difficulty` or `topics` keys for each entry in the `exercises` array.
This weakness is currently mitigated by the fact that active languages
should have many examples to go off of. The only time where there are no
examples will be when starting a brand-new track.
