Ruby & Rails Naming Conventions

Alex's Rails Cheat Sheet

I think the most confusing thing that I have found about Ruby on Rails so far has been the transition from (trying to) write code myself to the use of the fabled "Rails Magic". So, to help my own understanding of a few core Ruby on Rails concepts, I have decided to write something on what I think is a CRITICAL topic... the idea of Convention over Configuration and why (in my mind) it is the most important thing that helps Rails become magic!

(This may be a topic that we cover in more detail in class but as I said, I'm writing this for my own understanding... I hope it helps someone else understand things too... Perhaps you can give me a hand when I'm crying next week!)

##Convention over configuration ###What does this "actually" mean...

Deploy Node.js app on Ubuntu as Upstart Service - instead of using Forever

Deploying a node app with Forever is great...until your server restarts unexpectedly. Then your app stops running and you have to re-deploy.

To get around this, we're going to run our node app as an Upstart service. Upstart services are great, because, once started, the system auto-restarts them if they fail, or if the server restarts.

###Step 1: Create a service for your node app

  • ssh in as root ssh root@youripaddress
  • Create a node-app.conf file in /etc/init
    IMPORTANT: whatever filename you pick is what you will use to start|stop|restart your service i.e. service node-app start

Bash helper script to help with the automation of routine snapRAID tasks. Add it as a cron job to automate the routine tasks of running sync and scrub. Script will optionally send you email of status and issues encountered during the run.
#!/bin/bash
#######################################################################
# This is a helper script that keeps snapraid parity info in sync with
# your data and optionally verifies the parity info. Here's how it works:
# 1) It first calls diff to figure out if the parity info is out of sync.
# 2) If parity info is out of sync, AND the number of deleted files exceed
# X (configurable), it triggers an alert email and stops. (In case of
# accidental deletions, you have the opportunity to recover them from
# the existing parity info)
# 3) If partiy info is out of sync, AND the number of deleted files exceed X
