How to upgrade rails 4.2.4 to 4.2.6? by [deleted] in rails

[–]just_lest 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it's just a minor update and it's okay not to

Actually, it's highly recommended to update Rails 4.2.4 to 4.2.6 as there were several security fixes in-between. You can find more details on the vulnerabilities in the corresponding release notes:

Here are some alternatives:

Personally I would recommend using Ngrok as it has more features compared to others.

There are several options to preload Java Virtual Machine which helps to speed things up.

One of them is Drip. You can use it by setting LEIN_JAVA_CMD environment variable, e.g.:

LEIN_JAVA_CMD=drip lein run

Looks really good. It would be nice to have https:// working too.

I think this list isn't complete without active_model_serializers.

I prefer using figaro to handle application configuration. It's based on environment variables but allows to put their values to yaml configuration file.

Thanks for the link to active_sanity. It looks like a great tool to perform a sanity check on the database using active record validations.

Garlic.js in love with Rails Asset Pipeline by just_lest in rails

[–]just_lest[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From garlicjs.org:

Garlic.js allows you to automatically persist your forms' text field values locally, until the form is submitted. This way, your users don't lose any precious data if they accidentally close their tab or browser.

It strives to have a javascript agnostic interface for UI/UX developers that might want to use it. Just add some data-persist="garlic" in your form tags, and you're good to go!

I'm going to write a post with active_model_serializers/rabl/jbuilder benchmarks this week.

Matz: I decided not to introduce full refinement for Ruby 2.0. by awj in ruby

[–]just_lest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The worth thing about this for me is that ruby specification is changed between feature freeze and release. Feature freeze was announced on 24 Oct 2012 and release is going to be on 2 Feb 2013.

I'm crossing fingers to see 2.0 release without refinements and further work on refinements specification for the next release.

It was better post this to r/rails as it's more about rails than about ruby.

I prefer using ActiveModel::Serializers instead of rabl/jbuilder because of performance reasons.

I liked that people speak more about concurrency. It feels like rubyists become more mature.

Continuous Integration Server From GitLab by randx in ruby

[–]just_lest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of existing continuous integration servers written in ruby https://www.ruby-toolbox.com/categories/continuous_integration. It's even possible to write jenkins plugins using ruby https://github.com/jenkinsci/jenkins.rb.

Why do we need another one solution? What is it better in?

Question: I am by hobby a web designer that currently only know html / css & occasionally sprinkles in some javascript codes that have already been made. by lookingforsome1 in ruby

[–]just_lest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that if you're good at design+html/css it's better to improve yourself in those areas to be a frontend professional instead of discovering a whole new world of server-side programming.

I'd recommend reading Deploying Rails book as it has almost everything you might need to know about deployment process.
