Gemfile Options

By -
You can do any of the following in the Gemfile:
  • gem "name", "version": version may be a strict version or a version requirement like >= 1.0.6. The version is optional.

  • gem "name", "version", :require_as => "file": the require_as allows you to specify which file should be required when the require_env is called. By default, it is the gem’s name

  • gem "name", "version", :only => :testing: The environment name can be anything. It is used later in your require_env call. You may specify either :only, or :except constraints

  • gem "name", "version", :git => "git://github.com/wycats/thor": Specify a git repository to be used to satisfy the dependency. You must use a hard dependency (“1.0.6″) rather than a soft dependency (“>= 1.0.6″). If a .gemspec is found in the repository, it is used for further dependency lookup. If the repository has multiple .gemspecs, each directory will a .gemspec will be considered a gem.

  • gem "name", "version", :git => "git://github.com/wycats/thor", :branch => "experimental": Further specify a branch, tag, or ref to use. All of :branch, :tag, and :ref are valid options

  • gem "name", "version", :vendored_at => "vendor/nokogiri": In the next version of bundler, this option will be changing to :path. This specifies that the dependency can be found in the local file system, rather than remotely. It is resolved relative to the location of the Gemfile

  • clear_sources: Empties the list of gem sources to search inside of.

  • source "http://gems.github.com": Adds a gem source to the list of available gem sources.

  • bundle_path "vendor/my_gems": Changes the default location of bundled gems from vendor/gems

  • bin_path "my_executables": Changes the default location of the installed executables

  • disable_system_gems: Without this command, both bundled gems and system gems will be used. You can therefore have things like ruby-debug in your system and use it. However, it also means that you may be using something in development mode that is installed on your system but not available in production. For this reason, it is best to disable_system_gems

  • disable_rubygems: This completely disables rubygems, reducing startup times considerably. However, it often doesn’t work if libraries you are using depend on features of Rubygems. In this mode, the bundler shims the features of Rubygems that we know people are using, but it’s possible that someone is using a feature we’re unaware of. You are free to try disable_rubygems first, then remove it if it doesn’t work. Note that Rails 2.3 cannot be made to work in this mode

  • only :environment { gem "rails" }: You can use only or except in block mode to specify a number of gems at once

Inserting and Moving elements inside Ruby Array

By -
Here's is an array with 5 elements 2.1.2 :001 > arr = ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"] => ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"] Lets look at few different cases Insert a new element at starting position Using unshift 2.1.2 :002 > arr.unshift("f") => ["f", "a", "b", "c", "d", "e"] Using insert 2.1.2 :005 > arr.insert(0, "f") => ["f", "a", "b", "c", "d", "e"] In the above example 0 is the position(index) Move existing element from one position to another The element in this case is "e" Using uniq to show only unique elements 2.1.2 :009 > arr.insert(0, "e").uniq => ["e", "a", "b", "c", "d"] With uniq we are only showing unique records but the element is listed

Remove duplicates from a JavaScript Array

By -
In JavaScript, you may combine the indexOf() method and the filter() method to get rid of duplicates from an array function removeDuplicates(arr) { return arr.filter((el, index) => arr.indexOf(el) === index); } let numbers = [1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5]; let uniqueNumbers = removeDuplicates(numbers); console.log(uniqueNumbers); // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] The removeDuplicates() function in this code accepts an array as an argument and produces a new array that is empty of duplicates. This is accomplished by creating a new array with the filter() method that only contains elements that are unique within the original array. A callback function is provided as an argument to the filter() method, which is used to filter each element of the array. By comparing the current element's index to the output of executing indexOf() on the original array, the callback function determines if the current element exists only once in the array. The element is added to the new array if the two indices a

Sending Binary Data over the Network with Json

By -
First, you need to open the file. Since the file is binary, you have to open it with an additional “b” flag. Here i am sending a zip file f = File.open("path/myzip.zip", "rb")   Next, you have to do binary-to-text encoding on the binary file because the JSON will complain if you try to feed it a binary string. To overcome this obstacle, you need to apply Base64 encoding. file_content = Base64.b64encode(f.read())   After you have a text representation of the data, you can then use JSON to package it, you can use to_json to convert in to json {:file=>file_content}.to_json In your  Rails application you can do this like render :layout=>false , :json => {:file=> file_content}.to_json
