These are the steps I took to get the HSBC Bookmarklet (http://dies-el.co.uk/hsbc_bookmarklet) installed.

1. Get a copy of John Gruber's perl script to create bookmarklets (I've copied it and created a gist)

  $ git clone git://gist.github.com/316867.git make-bookmarklet

2. Get a copy of Andrew Donaldson's HSBC auto logger inner

  $ git clone git://gist.github.com/266260.git hsbc-bookmarklet

I've moved this to its own repository - http://github.com/chrisroos/mysql-export

# Introduction
# ------------
# I wanted a fairly simple/standalone way to check whether our rails apps were affected by the ActionMailer/SMTP error
# in lighthouse ticket 2340 - https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/2340

# Usage
# -----
# Use the script/runner within your rails app
#   $ script/runner lighthouse-ticket-2340-rails-smtp-error-check.rb
# Remember to run it in the relevant environment, e.g. production

module FlashHelper
  
  # If message contains symbol like strings we'll inject the value from that helper method
  # e.g. 'foo :bar baz' will return 'foo <return value of the bar method> baz'
  def render_flash_message(message)
    h(message).gsub(/:(flash_\w+)/) { send $1 }
  end

# HTTPStreamHandler will use httpclient if installed (which it will be if you've installed soap4r as a gem, as httpclient is listed as a dependency) and fall back to net/http if it's not.  We want to force net/http so that we can use FakeWeb.  This hack is pretty crappy because it relies on the implementation of Soap4r but it works so is good enough for now.

def force_soap4r_to_use_net_http!
  require 'soap/netHttpClient'
  SOAP::HTTPStreamHandler.send :remove_const, :Client
  SOAP::HTTPStreamHandler.const_set(:Client, SOAP::NetHttpClient)
end

Create a temporary directory for us to work in

$ cd ~
$ mkdir tmp-redcloth
$ cd tmp-redcloth

Install RedCloth 4.2.6

Use bundler to install RedCloth 4.2.6 into our temporary directory.
