Speedup Rails Asset Pipeline precompile process

This post is based on my blog post: http://blog.xdite.net/posts/2012/07/09/3-way-to-speedup-asset-pipeline/

Here are my three tips for speedup asset pipeline precompile process:

1. Capistrano deployment speedup
2. Use @import carefully.
3. don’t require .scss & .coffee for no reason

JavaScript Best Practices

Code conventions

Closing/opening brackets

Although this isn't a problem in other languages, because of semicolon insertion, there could be problems if you don't place the bracket on the opening line:

// no:
function()
{

Why?

There is a long standing issue in Ruby where the net/http library by default does not check the validity of an SSL certificate during a TLS handshake. Rather than deal with the underlying problem (a missing certificate authority, a self-signed certificate, etc.) one tends to see bad hacks everywhere. This can lead to problems down the road.

From what I can see the OpenSSL library that Rails Installer delivers has no certificate authorities defined. So, let's go fetch some from the curl website. And since this is for ruby, why don't we download and install the file with a ruby script?

Installation

The Ruby Way! (Fun)
