Converting libraries to Ember CLI addons

In this guide we will cover two main cases:

• Ember specific library
• vendor library

Ember library

The Ember library will assume that Ember has already ben loaded (higher in the loading order) and thus will assume it has access to the Ember API.

Thoughts on a Meteor ORM

While we're approaching the 1.0 release of Meteor, the need and interest in additional databases support (other than MongoDB) has risen consequently. Thus, SQL support is the second most requested feature on the official meteor roadmap (after server-side rendering) and there have been various demands on the forums about supporting Redis (also on the roadmap), RethinkDB, LevelDB, Neo4J, ElasticSearch, Mysql/MariaDB, PosgreSQL, SQLite and some other. More importantly the Meteor community has started to work on atmosphere packages that bring support for these databases and it appeared to be a very difficult task – most projects were abandoned.

The problem

What makes the integration of a new database a lot harder in Meteor than in most other web frameworks (including “full stack” JavaScript frameworks like Derby or Sails) lies in the third [principle of Meteor](http://docs.meteor.com/

PSQL

Magic words:

psql -U postgres

Some interesting flags (to see all, use -h or --help depending on your psql version):

• -E: will describe the underlaying queries of the \ commands (cool for learning!)
• -l: psql will list all databases and then exit (useful if the user you connect with doesn't has a default database, like at AWS RDS)

Custom middleware is a legacy option, since most times you just want to use policies.

HOWEVER! There are times you want to use sails for quick/dirty things you would normally use express for (but you already have sails around, w/e). More pertinently, if you want middleware to run before the static files from your assets folder are served, policies won't let you do that.

Here's an example of using the BasicAuth middleware for everything:

// Put this in `config/express.js`

jlong

var parser = document.createElement('a');
parser.href = "http://example.com:3000/pathname/?search=test#hash";

parser.protocol; // => "http:"
parser.hostname; // => "example.com"
parser.port;     // => "3000"
parser.pathname; // => "/pathname/"
parser.search;   // => "?search=test"
parser.hash;     // => "#hash"
parser.host;     // => "example.com:3000"
