Created November 6, 2012 21:56
A simple express.js server with a proxy that intercepts all requests with /api/ and proxies them to localhost:3000
var express = require('express'),
httpProxy = require('http-proxy'),
app = express();
var proxy = new httpProxy.RoutingProxy();
function apiProxy(host, port) {
return function(req, res, next) {
if(req.url.match(new RegExp('^\/api\/'))) {
proxy.proxyRequest(req, res, {host: host, port: port});

Override devise's TokenAuthenticatable strategy to use Authorization headers

This will allow you to use devise's TokenAuthenticatable strategy while passing your :auth_token in using HTTP Authorization headers instead of params.

You can check it out using

curl -H "Authorization: Token token=XXXXXX, option=1" -vv http://railsapp.dev/api/v1/endpoint.json

It should properly authenticate using the token as well as set request.env['token.options'] to {"options" => "1"}.

Want to send a DELETE request when outside of a form? This will handle the form-creation bits for you dynamically, similar to the Rails implementation. (Requires jQuery, but doesn't have to.) To use, import script, and create a link with the `data-method="DELETE"` attribute.
/*
<a href="posts/2" data-method="delete"> <---- We want to send an HTTP DELETE request
- Or, request confirmation in the process -
<a href="posts/2" data-method="delete" data-confirm="Are you sure?">
*/

Laravel 4 Eloquent Cheat Sheet.

Conventions:

Defining Eloquent model (will assume that DB table named is set as plural of class name and primary key named "id"):

class Shop extends Eloquent {}

Using custom table name

protected $table = 'my_shops';

Big list of http static server one-liners

Each of these commands will run an ad hoc http static server in your current (or specified) directory, available at http://localhost:8000. Use this power wisely.

Embed scalable Faye into Rails app hosted with Puma, Thin, etc.

This is just a jotting of notes on how to embed Faye into a single Rails process. Makes it nice to do simple real time things without the need for a separate Faye server/process.

Also uses Faye Redis to work across load balanced Rails apps.

You also need to copy the compiled javascript into vendor/assets/javascripts and include into application.js manifest.

Ignore the numbers in the file names... just used to add order to the Gist.

This uses the faye/faye Github repo at edc5b42f6560d31eae61caf00f6765a90e1818d1 since I wanted to use with the Puma rack server and that is only available in the master branch (until Faye 1.0)
