Ruby memory analysis over time

Finding a Ruby memory leak using a time analysis

When developing a program in Ruby, you may sometimes encounter a memory leak. For a while now, Ruby has a facility to gather information about what objects are laying around: ObjectSpace.

There are several approaches one can take to debug a leak. This discusses a time-based approach, where a full memory dump is generated every, say, 5 minutes, during a time that the memory leak is showing up.

Authentication from Scratch with Rails 3.2.5

Authentication from Scratch with Rails 3.2.5

Rails 3.1 gives us a really easy way to authenticate users in our app: http_basic_authenticate_with.

After all, let's relax and let Rails do the hard work.

What we'll need

Gemfile

gem 'bcrypt-ruby', '~> 3.0.0'

Model

First at all, an User model which we can generate by following: rails g model user email:string password_digest:string and then add the following methodo call to generated class: has_secure_password

# Config for Nginx to act as a front-end for Riak
# The main goal is to proxy all GETs directly to Riak, and disallow anything else (POST, PUT, etc)
# Also, disallow use of the map/reduce query links (i.e. /riak/bucket/key/_,_,_)
# Config is in /etc/nginx/sites-available/default or somewhere like that
# Set up load-balancing to send requests to all nodes in the Riak cluster
# Replace these IPs/ports with the locations of your Riak nodes
