A Capistrano Rails Guide

A Capistrano Rails Guide

by Jonathan Rochkind, http://bibwild.wordpress.com

why cap?

Capistrano automates pushing out a new version of your application to a deployment location.

I've been writing and deploying Rails apps for a while, but I avoided using Capistrano until recently. I've got a pretty simple one-host deployment, and even though everyone said Capistrano was great, every time I tried to get started I just got snowed under not being able to figure out exactly what I wanted to do, and figured I wasn't having that much trouble doing it "manually".

Add CoffeeScript friendly argument order to Underscore.js
# Five lines of code that will make your underscore + CoffeeScript use cleaner.
# Creates an underscore function for each function in to_reverse with R (short for Reversed) appended to the name.
# The R version moves the function argument (first argument in normal underscore) to the end,
# so you can write:
$(window).scroll _.throttleR 500, ->
console.log "This print's at most every 500ms"
# Instead of:
$(window).scroll _.throttle ->
console.log "This prints at most every 500ms too"
