Sessions and Conversations in Rails 3

Sessions and Conversations

HTTP is a stateless protocol. Sessions allow us to chain multiple requests together into a conversation between client and server.

Sessions should be an option of last resort. If there's no where else that the data can possibly go to achieve the desired functionality, only then should it be stored in the session. Sessions can be vulnerable to security threats from third parties, malicious users, and can cause scaling problems.

That doesn't mean we can't use sessions, but we should only use them where necessary.

.eco - Partials .. Render Partials in .jst.eco templates (for Rails + Spine / maybe Backbone)
# Render Partials in ECO-Templates like in Rails-ERB

# usefull to clean up structure in spine.js and other js-mvc´s like backbone
#
# usage:
# <%- render_partial 'path/to/partial' %> .. will render ../spine-app/views/path/to/_partial.jst.eco
# <%- render_partial 'path/to/partial', foo: 'bar' %> .. will render ../spine-app/views/path/to/_partial.jst.eco .. locals = @foo
#
window.render_partial = ( path, options = {} ) ->
# add the leading underscore (like rails-partials)
