Useful emoji for git commit messages

Useful emoji for git commit messages

If you add emoji to your commit messages for a GitHub repo, they become less boring, and you can convey the kind of change you're adding. See the full set of GitHub supported emoji here (also useful for easy copy&paste via a simple click).

Example commit message

The following is a possible scheme to use:

Rails Generating & Scaffolding

Rails Generating & Scaffolding

Rails' use of strict naming conventions means a lot of core code SHOULD be in the same format whoever writes it? It could be written by a friend, colleague or a computer... it shouldn't matter because the same Rails rules apply to everyone.

This means that Rails can actually do some tasks for you! It can actually build things and write code on your behalf...

Coming from another language like PHP, this can seem like magic.

class PolicyTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase
def assert_permissions(current_user, record, available_actions, permissions_hash = {})
permissions_hash.each do |action, should_be_permitted|
if should_be_permitted
assert_permit current_user, record, action
else
refute_permit current_user, record, action
end
end

Unobtrusive JavaScript solution for polling in a Rails application
###
Unobtrusive JavaScript solution for polling in a Rails application
Introduction:
Add a polling-placeholder wrapper div to any partial and add a data attribute
named poll that should be equal to "true" until you want to stop polling.
The default polling frequency will be used unless you provide an "interval" data
attribute which should be the number of milliseconds to use for the interval.

Custom Web Fonts and the Rails Asset Pipeline

Web fonts are pretty much all the rage. Using a CDN for font libraries, like TypeKit or Google Fonts, will be a great solution for many projects. For others, this is not an option. Especially when you are creating a custom icon library for your project.

Rails and the asset pipeline are great tools, but Rails has yet to get caught up in the custom web font craze.

As with all things Rails, there is more then one way to skin this cat. There is the recommended way, and then there are the other ways.

The recommended way

Here I will show how to update your Rails project so that you can use the asset pipeline appropriately and resource your files using the common Rails convention.

These are the steps I went through to set up an SSL cert.
