RSpec crash course.
  • specs go in the "spec" directory
  • specs end in "_spec.rb"
  • toplevel begins with describe
  • inside of a describe you have an it
  • example is an alias for it
  • inside of it blocks, you write your code and assertions
  • run with $ rspec or $ rspec spec/some_spec.rb
  • if you need common setup (e.g. add another dir to the load path), put into "spec/spec_helper.rb" and then `require "spec_helper" at the top of the spec
  • using let will allow you to name a value that you want to call from your spec,

Importing a CSV dump of Postgres data into Heroku
# You have your csv data and it looks like so... It's in a file named "my_data.csv" and we want to import it into a table named "my_things".

# Now you want to import it, go to the command line and type:

Rails Rspec model testing skeleton & cheat sheet using rspec-rails, shoulda-matchers, shoulda-callbacks, and factory_girl_rails. Pretty much a brain dump of examples of what you can (should?) test in a model. Pick & choose what you like, and please let me know if there are any errors or new/changed features out there. Reddit comment thread: http…
# This is a skeleton for testing models including examples of validations, callbacks,
# scopes, instance & class methods, associations, and more.
# Pick and choose what you want, as all models don't NEED to be tested at this depth.
#
# I'm always eager to hear new tips & suggestions as I'm still new to testing,
# so if you have any, please share!
#
# @kyletcarlson

# This skeleton also assumes you're using the following gems:

Ideas and guidelines for architecting larger applications in Elm to be modular and extensible

Architecture in Elm

This document is a collection of concepts and strategies to make large Elm projects modular and extensible.

We will start by thinking about the structure of signals in our program. Broadly speaking, your application state should live in one big foldp. You will probably merge a bunch of input signals into a single stream of updates. This sounds a bit crazy at first, but it is in the same ballpark as Om or Facebook's Flux. There are a couple major benefits to having a centralized home for your application state:

  1. There is a single source of truth. Traditional approaches force you to write a decent amount of custom and error prone code to synchronize state between many different stateful components. (The state of this widget needs to be synced with the application state, which needs to be synced with some other widget, etc.) By placing all of your state in one location, you eliminate an entire class of bugs in which two components get into inconsistent states. We also think yo
