Realtime Notifications with ActionCable

In this episode we're going to be adding realtime notifications into your app using ActionCable. We've talked about notifications a few times in the past and we used AJAX polling for that. 95% of the time, polling is the solution that would be recommended for it.

But if you're looking for a good introduction into ActionCable then this is a decent one because we're only really using it for one way from the server side to the client side.

Getting started

So to get started we're starting with an app that has Bootstrap installed and then we created a Main controller with an index view which is where we will list our Notifications as for this example.

Before we generate our channels let's install a few things

GitHub Standard Fork & Pull Request Workflow

Whether you're trying to give back to the open source community or collaborating on your own projects, knowing how to properly fork and generate pull requests is essential. Unfortunately, it's quite easy to make mistakes or not know what you should do when you're initially learning the process. I know that I certainly had considerable initial trouble with it, and I found a lot of the information on GitHub and around the internet to be rather piecemeal and incomplete - part of the process described here, another there, common hangups in a different place, and so on.

In an attempt to coallate this information for myself and others, this short tutorial is what I've found to be fairly standard procedure for creating a fork, doing your work, issuing a pull request, and merging that pull request back into the original project.

Let's say you're starting a new Yii project and you've already created the database schema for it using something like phpMyAdmin or MySQL Workbench. Now you want to create an initial database migration so you can put the schema under version control, but you don't want to manually write the Yii code to create the tables, indexes, and foreign ke…

class InitialDbMigrationCommand extends CConsoleCommand

public function run($args) {
$schema = $args[0];
