Dirty plugin for SpineJS.
So the model object can bind the event "change:#{field} to trigger event when the field value is changed.
By default it's off and if need this feature, the model should extend Spine.Model.Dirty.
A sample case.
class User extends Spine.Model
@extend Spine.Model.Dirty
end

Pre-fetching your Rails asset hostname using dns-prefetch in your application's layout file
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>App title</title>
<% if ActionController::Base.asset_host %>
<link rel="dns-prefetch" href="//<%= ActionController::Base.asset_host %>" />
<% end %>

The Rails Asset Pipeline & Angular JS partials.

My Angular.js partials live in public/partials.

In development mode I want them served from there, in production I want to have an Angular.js module called templates which simply popuates the template cache for me.

This isn't just about performance in production: it's making sure the partials are embedded in the assets which forces the partial's lifetime to be the same as the assets with no other caching worries when we redeploy the app.

  2. Add the attached demo helper to your spec/support.
  3. Add the capybara config to your spec_helper file.
  4. Run bundle install.
  5. Write your feature with its scenario specs.
  6. Put a demo filter on each scenario you want to demo. ( refer to the example below )
  7. Run bundle exec rspec spec.
