Intro

Problem: I learned how to run RSpec to test classes and modules in my gem. But, if I wanted to test my gem as if it were already included in a Rails app, I couldn't find much info about it online.

I usually do unit tests with RSpec, and I test the whole stack with Cucumber. So here we will just setup Cucumber to run the Rails app that you embed in your gem.

Before we begin:

• This tutorial is for people who already know how to make gems, and who have used RSpec and Cucumber before in a Rails app.
• MyGem and my_gem below refer to the name of the gem we are creating. Replace this with your own name.

When developing an application where you have split out shared functionality to multiple dependent gem repositories can get cumbersome when you

• need to edit the Gemfile in order to swap local :path sources with :git or just plain Rubygems sources,
• then forget to bundle update,
• wonder why your git repository is dirty and it's just the modified Gemfile and Gemfile.lock,
• accidentally commit the Gemfile.lock with local :path sources bundled etc. etc.

So what about this strategy:

A. Create a file .Gemfile.local containing:

Some random notes on the pangs of ember. Will be expanding as they are uncovered.

Building a form

Say you have a form that maps to a model, something like:

<form>
  <fieldset>
    <legend>Who are you?</legend>

This article has been given a more permanent home on my blog. Also, since it was first written, the development of the Promises/A+ specification has made the original emphasis on Promises/A seem somewhat outdated.

You're Missing the Point of Promises

Promises are a software abstraction that makes working with asynchronous operations much more pleasant. In the most basic definition, your code will move from continuation-passing style:

getTweetsFor("domenic", function (err, results) {
 // the rest of your code goes here.

Playing with Orbit.js and Ember.js

This presenation is an exploration of rolling your own data persistence for and Ember.js Application

During this discovery I attempt to roll my own data solution. I've selected to use alpha software, Orbit.js. So not also choosing other alpha software at the some time. Not covering es6, broccoli, ember-cli etc.

The exploratory app is based on converting my blog app (uses REST) to use Web sockets with a Node.js backend. I am using some build tools brunch.io also borrowing from tapas-with-ember. The modules in the source code are [CommonJS modules].
