Tutorial: Create and Deploy a Contact Form to Production in Ruby on Rails 5

Create a Contact Form in Rails 5



2021 UPDATE: some parts of this tutorial are now out of date, please use Create a Contact Form in Rails 6 instead. The rails 5 / gmail version remains below for posterity.






This is a complete, step-by-step tutorial showing how to create a fully functional contact form in production in rails 5. Rather than reinvent things, the following borrows from the best available documentation and tutorials (most notably, this tutorial on making a contact form in development). The finished contact form can be viewed here.

Using iOS 15 devices with Xcode 12.5 (instead of Xcode 13)
# The trick is to link the DeviceSupport folder from the beta to the stable version.
# sudo needed if you run the Mac App Store version. Always download the dmg instead... you'll thank me later :)
# Support iOS 15 devices (Xcode 13.0) with Xcode 12.5:
sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/15.0 /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport
# Then restart Xcode and reconnect your devices. You will need to do that for every beta of future iOS versions
# (A similar approach works for older versions too, just change the version number after DeviceSupport)

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

Possible solutions

Business models based on the compiled list at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4924647. I find the link very hard to browse, so I made a simple version in Markdown instead.
