# Active Reload
|

|
+
## The only Rails boost tool that doesn't try to be too smart.

<a href='http://www.pledgie.com/campaigns/15547'><img alt='Donate Active Reload at www.pledgie.com' src='http://pledgie.com/campaigns/15547.png?skin_name=chrome' border='0' /></a>

Active Reload is a gem that changes a little when Rails code reloading is executed.
|
7
|
+
Normally Rails "forgets" your code after every request in development mode and loads again necessary
|
8
|
+
files during the request. If your application is big this can take lot of time especially on "dashboard" page
|
9
|
+
that uses lot of different classes.
|
10
|
+
|
11
|
+
However this constant reloading is not always necessary. This gem changes it so it occurs
|
12
|
+
before request and only when file was changed or added. It won't make reloading your app
|
13
|
+
faster but it will skip reloading when nothing changed and that saved second can really sum
|
14
|
+
up to a big value. It means that after change first request in development mode will reload the code
|
15
|
+
and take as much time as it takes without this gem but subsequent request will be faster until next
|
16
|
+
changes due to lack of code reloading.
|

|
32
|
+
|
33
|
+
## Installation
|
34
|
+
|
35
|
+
Simply add Active Reload to your Gemfile and bundle it up:
|
36
|
+
|
37
|
+
```ruby
|
38
|
+
gem 'active_reload'
|
39
|
+
```
|
40
|
+
|
41
|
+
## Compatibility
|
42
|
+
|
43
|
+
It was hand tested only with Rails 3.0.9 but should work without any problem on any `3.0.*` and `3.1.*` Rails version. I'm in the middle of writing automatic tests for it.
|
44
|
+
|
45
|
+
It should work with any ruby compatible with `1.9.2` (ex. JRuby). Expect `1.8.7` support soon.
|
46
|
+
|
47
|
+
## Notifications
|
48
|
+
|
49
|
+
You can subscribe to two notifications provided by this gem.
|
50
|
+
|
51
|
+
`active_reload.set_clear_dependencies_hook_replaced` event is triggered when the gem changes original rails hook for code reloading.
|
52
|
+
|
53
|
+
```ruby
|
54
|
+
ActiveSupport::Notifications.subscribe("active_reload.set_clear_dependencies_hook_replaced") do |*args|
|
55
|
+
event = ActiveSupport::Notifications::Event.new(*args)
|
56
|
+
msg = event.name
|
57
|
+
# Ubuntu: https://github.com/splattael/libnotify, Example: Libnotify.show(:body => msg, :summary => Rails.application.class.name, :timeout => 2.5, :append => true)
|
58
|
+
# Macos: http://segment7.net/projects/ruby/growl/
|
59
|
+
puts Rails.logger.warn(" --- #{msg} --- ")
|
60
|
+
end
|
61
|
+
```
|
62
|
+
|
63
|
+
`active_support.dependencies.clear` event is triggered when code reloading is triggered by this gem.
|
64
|
+
|
65
|
+
```ruby
|
66
|
+
ActiveSupport::Notifications.subscribe("active_support.dependencies.clear") do |*args|
|
67
|
+
msg = "Code reloaded!"
|
68
|
+
# Ubuntu: https://github.com/splattael/libnotify, Example: Libnotify.show(:body => msg, :summary => Rails.application.class.name, :timeout => 2.5, :append => true)
|
69
|
+
# Macos: http://segment7.net/projects/ruby/growl/
|
70
|
+
puts Rails.logger.info(" --- #{msg} --- ")
|
71
|
+
end
|
72
|
+
```

== Welcome to Rails
|
2
|
+
|
3
|
+
Rails is a web-application framework that includes everything needed to create
|
4
|
+
database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Control pattern.
|
5
|
+
|
6
|
+
This pattern splits the view (also called the presentation) into "dumb"
|
7
|
+
templates that are primarily responsible for inserting pre-built data in between
|
8
|
+
HTML tags. The model contains the "smart" domain objects (such as Account,
|
9
|
+
Product, Person, Post) that holds all the business logic and knows how to
|
10
|
+
persist themselves to a database. The controller handles the incoming requests
|
11
|
+
(such as Save New Account, Update Product, Show Post) by manipulating the model
|
12
|
+
and directing data to the view.
|
13
|
+
|
14
|
+
In Rails, the model is handled by what's called an object-relational mapping
|
15
|
+
layer entitled Active Record. This layer allows you to present the data from
|
16
|
+
database rows as objects and embellish these data objects with business logic
|
17
|
+
methods. You can read more about Active Record in
|
18
|
+
link:files/vendor/rails/activerecord/README.html.
|
19
|
+
|
20
|
+
The controller and view are handled by the Action Pack, which handles both
|
21
|
+
layers by its two parts: Action View and Action Controller. These two layers
|
22
|
+
are bundled in a single package due to their heavy interdependence. This is
|
23
|
+
unlike the relationship between the Active Record and Action Pack that is much
|
24
|
+
more separate. Each of these packages can be used independently outside of
|
25
|
+
Rails. You can read more about Action Pack in
|
26
|
+
link:files/vendor/rails/actionpack/README.html.
|
27
|
+
|
28
|
+
|
29
|
+
== Getting Started
|
30
|
+
|
31
|
+
1. At the command prompt, create a new Rails application:
|
32
|
+
<tt>rails new myapp</tt> (where <tt>myapp</tt> is the application name)
|
33
|
+
|
34
|
+
2. Change directory to <tt>myapp</tt> and start the web server:
|
35
|
+
<tt>cd myapp; rails server</tt> (run with --help for options)
|
36
|
+
|
37
|
+
3. Go to http://localhost:3000/ and you'll see:
|
38
|
+
"Welcome aboard: You're riding Ruby on Rails!"
|
39
|
+
|
40
|
+
4. Follow the guidelines to start developing your application. You can find
|
41
|
+
the following resources handy:
|
42
|
+
|
43
|
+
* The Getting Started Guide: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/getting_started.html
|
44
|
+
* Ruby on Rails Tutorial Book: http://www.railstutorial.org/
|
45
|
+
|
46
|
+
|
47
|
+
== Debugging Rails
|
48
|
+
|
49
|
+
Sometimes your application goes wrong. Fortunately there are a lot of tools that
|
50
|
+
will help you debug it and get it back on the rails.
|
51
|
+
|
52
|
+
First area to check is the application log files. Have "tail -f" commands
|
53
|
+
running on the server.log and development.log. Rails will automatically display
|
54
|
+
debugging and runtime information to these files. Debugging info will also be
|
55
|
+
shown in the browser on requests from 127.0.0.1.
|
56
|
+
|
57
|
+
You can also log your own messages directly into the log file from your code
|
58
|
+
using the Ruby logger class from inside your controllers. Example:
|
59
|
+
|
60
|
+
class WeblogController < ActionController::Base
|
61
|
+
def destroy
|
62
|
+
@weblog = Weblog.find(params[:id])
|
63
|
+
@weblog.destroy
|
64
|
+
logger.info("#{Time.now} Destroyed Weblog ID ##{@weblog.id}!")
|
65
|
+
end
|
66
|
+
end
|
67
|
+
|
68
|
+
The result will be a message in your log file along the lines of:
|
69
|
+
|
70
|
+
Mon Oct 08 14:22:29 +1000 2007 Destroyed Weblog ID #1!
|
71
|
+
|
72
|
+
More information on how to use the logger is at http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/
|
73
|
+
|
74
|
+
Also, Ruby documentation can be found at http://www.ruby-lang.org/. There are
|
75
|
+
several books available online as well:
|
76
|
+
|
77
|
+
* Programming Ruby: http://www.ruby-doc.org/docs/ProgrammingRuby/ (Pickaxe)
|
78
|
+
* Learn to Program: http://pine.fm/LearnToProgram/ (a beginners guide)
|
79
|
+
|
80
|
+
These two books will bring you up to speed on the Ruby language and also on
|
81
|
+
programming in general.
|
82
|
+
|
83
|
+
|
84
|
+
== Debugger
|
85
|
+
|
86
|
+
Debugger support is available through the debugger command when you start your
|
87
|
+
Mongrel or WEBrick server with --debugger. This means that you can break out of
|
88
|
+
execution at any point in the code, investigate and change the model, and then,
|
89
|
+
resume execution! You need to install ruby-debug to run the server in debugging
|
90
|
+
mode. With gems, use <tt>sudo gem install ruby-debug</tt>. Example:
|
91
|
+
|
92
|
+
class WeblogController < ActionController::Base
|
93
|
+
def index
|
94
|
+
@posts = Post.find(:all)
|
95
|
+
debugger
|
96
|
+
end
|
97
|
+
end
|
98
|
+
|
99
|
+
So the controller will accept the action, run the first line, then present you
|
100
|
+
with a IRB prompt in the server window. Here you can do things like:
|
101
|
+
|
102
|
+
>> @posts.inspect
|
103
|
+
=> "[#<Post:0x14a6be8
|
104
|
+
@attributes={"title"=>nil, "body"=>nil, "id"=>"1"}>,
|
105
|
+
#<Post:0x14a6620
|
106
|
+
@attributes={"title"=>"Rails", "body"=>"Only ten..", "id"=>"2"}>]"
|
107
|
+
>> @posts.first.title = "hello from a debugger"
|
108
|
+
=> "hello from a debugger"
|
109
|
+
|
110
|
+
...and even better, you can examine how your runtime objects actually work:
|
111
|
+
|
112
|
+
>> f = @posts.first
|
113
|
+
=> #<Post:0x13630c4 @attributes={"title"=>nil, "body"=>nil, "id"=>"1"}>
|
114
|
+
>> f.
|
115
|
+
Display all 152 possibilities? (y or n)
|
116
|
+
|
117
|
+
Finally, when you're ready to resume execution, you can enter "cont".
|
118
|
+
|
119
|
+
|
120
|
+
== Console
|
121
|
+
|
122
|
+
The console is a Ruby shell, which allows you to interact with your
|
123
|
+
application's domain model. Here you'll have all parts of the application
|
124
|
+
configured, just like it is when the application is running. You can inspect
|
125
|
+
domain models, change values, and save to the database. Starting the script
|
126
|
+
without arguments will launch it in the development environment.
|
127
|
+
|
128
|
+
To start the console, run <tt>rails console</tt> from the application
|
129
|
+
directory.
|
130
|
+
|
131
|
+
Options:
|
132
|
+
|
133
|
+
* Passing the <tt>-s, --sandbox</tt> argument will rollback any modifications
|
134
|
+
made to the database.
|
135
|
+
* Passing an environment name as an argument will load the corresponding
|
136
|
+
environment. Example: <tt>rails console production</tt>.
|
137
|
+
|
138
|
+
To reload your controllers and models after launching the console run
|
139
|
+
<tt>reload!</tt>
|
140
|
+
|
141
|
+

|
144
|
+
|
145
|
+
== dbconsole
|
146
|
+
|
147
|
+
You can go to the command line of your database directly through <tt>rails
|
148
|
+
dbconsole</tt>. You would be connected to the database with the credentials
|
149
|
+
defined in database.yml. Starting the script without arguments will connect you
|
150
|
+
to the development database. Passing an argument will connect you to a different
|
151
|
+
database, like <tt>rails dbconsole production</tt>. Currently works for MySQL,
|
152
|
+
PostgreSQL and SQLite 3.

app
|
194
|
+
Holds all the code that's specific to this particular application.
|
195
|
+
|
196
|
+
app/controllers
|
197
|
+
Holds controllers that should be named like weblogs_controller.rb for
|
198
|
+
automated URL mapping. All controllers should descend from
|
199
|
+
ApplicationController which itself descends from ActionController::Base.
|
200
|
+
|
201
|
+
app/models
|
202
|
+
Holds models that should be named like post.rb. Models descend from
|
203
|
+
ActiveRecord::Base by default.
|
204
|
+
|
205
|
+
app/views
|
206
|
+
Holds the template files for the view that should be named like
|
207
|
+
weblogs/index.html.erb for the WeblogsController#index action. All views use
|
208
|
+
eRuby syntax by default.
|
209
|
+
|
210
|
+
app/views/layouts
|
211
|
+
Holds the template files for layouts to be used with views. This models the
|
212
|
+
common header/footer method of wrapping views. In your views, define a layout
|
213
|
+
using the <tt>layout :default</tt> and create a file named default.html.erb.
|
214
|
+
Inside default.html.erb, call <% yield %> to render the view using this
|
215
|
+
layout.
|
216
|
+
|
217
|
+
app/helpers
|
218
|
+
Holds view helpers that should be named like weblogs_helper.rb. These are
|
219
|
+
generated for you automatically when using generators for controllers.
|
220
|
+
Helpers can be used to wrap functionality for your views into methods.
|
221
|
+
|
222
|
+
config
|
223
|
+
Configuration files for the Rails environment, the routing map, the database,
|
224
|
+
and other dependencies.
|
225
|
+
|
226
|
+
db
|
227
|
+
Contains the database schema in schema.rb. db/migrate contains all the
|
228
|
+
sequence of Migrations for your schema.
|
229
|
+
|
230
|
+
doc
|
231
|
+
This directory is where your application documentation will be stored when
|
232
|
+
generated using <tt>rake doc:app</tt>
|
233
|
+
|
234
|
+
lib
|
235
|
+
Application specific libraries. Basically, any kind of custom code that
|
236
|
+
doesn't belong under controllers, models, or helpers. This directory is in
|
237
|
+
the load path.
|
238
|
+
|
239
|
+
public
|
240
|
+
The directory available for the web server. Contains subdirectories for
|
241
|
+
images, stylesheets, and javascripts. Also contains the dispatchers and the
|
242
|
+
default HTML files. This should be set as the DOCUMENT_ROOT of your web
|
243
|
+
server.
|
244
|
+
|
245
|
+
script
|
246
|
+
Helper scripts for automation and generation.
|
247
|
+
|
248
|
+
test
|
249
|
+
Unit and functional tests along with fixtures. When using the rails generate
|
250
|
+
command, template test files will be generated for you and placed in this
|
251
|
+
directory.
|
252
|
+
|
253
|
+
vendor
|
254
|
+
External libraries that the application depends on. Also includes the plugins
|
255
|
+
subdirectory. If the app has frozen rails, those gems also go here, under
|
256
|
+
vendor/rails/. This directory is in the load path.
|
