Common setup for a new Rails project
  1. rails new <project_name> -d postgresql --skip-turbolinks --skip-spring -T
  • -d postgresql sets up the project to use PostgreSQL
  • --skip-turbolinks & --skip-spring creates a project that does not use turbolinks or spring
  • -T skips the creation of the test directory and use of Test::Unit
  1. In the Gemfile:
  • Available to all environments:
    • gem 'figaro' - store environment variables securely across your app (docs)
    • Uncomment gem 'bcrypt', '~> 3.1.7' if you will be hosting your own user accounts with passwords (docs)
  • Inside of group :test:
    • gem 'rspec-rails' - user rspec in place of minitest (docs)

React "controlled" vs "uncontrolled" inputs explanation

[12:03 AM] acemarke: "controlled" and "uncontrolled" inputs
[12:04 AM] acemarke: if I have a plain, normal HTML page, and I put <input id="myTextbox" type="text" /> in my page(edited)
[12:04 AM] acemarke: and I start typing into that textbox
[12:04 AM] acemarke: it remembers what I've typed. The browser stores the current value for that input
[12:05 AM] acemarke: and then sometime later, I can get the actual element, say, const input = document.getElementById("myTextbox"), and I can ask it for its value: const currentText = input.value;
[12:05 AM] acemarke: good so far?
[12:08 AM] acemarke: I'll keep going, and let me know if you have questions
[12:08 AM] lozio: ok, actually I'm reading
[12:09 AM] lozio: good
[12:09 AM] acemarke: so, a normal HTML input field effectively stores its own value at all times, and you can get the element and ask for its value

Rails.application.routes.draw do
  constraints subdomain: "api" do
    scope module: "api" do
