## Status
|
4
|
+
|
5
|
+
Work in progress of turning this https://gist.github.com/2398394 into a gem. Not released yet.
|
6
|
+
|
7
|
+
## What it does?
|
8
|
+
|
9
|
+
Older versions of Internet Explorer (basically version 9 and below) have a hard limit for the number of CSS selectors they can process, which is 4095. If one of your stylesheets exceeds this limit, all the rule sets beyond the 4095th selector will not be processed by IE and your app will miss some styling information.
|
10
|
+
|
11
|
+
CssSplitter integrates with the Rails 3.1+ Asset Pipeline to generate additional split stylesheets with all the CSS rules beyond the 4095th that can be served to IE browsers in order to get all the styling information.
|
12
|
+
|

|
+
|

|
+
## Dependencies

## Documentation
|
20
|
+
|
21
|
+
### 1. Splitting your stylesheets
|
22
|
+
|
23
|
+
The first step is indentifying the stylesheets that have more than 4095 selectors and therefore need to be split for IE.
|
24
|
+
|
25
|
+
Once you know which stylesheets need to be split, you need to create a second "container file" for those stylesheets with the file extension `.split2`, that will contain the styles beyond the 4095 selector limit.
|
26
|
+
|
27
|
+
For example, if you want to split `too_big_stylesheet.css`, you need to create a new file `too_big_stylesheet_split2.css.split2` in the same directory. The only content of that container, will be an include of the original file, e.g.:
|
28
|
+
|
29
|
+
# app/assets/stylesheets/too_big_stylesheet_split2.css.split2
|
30
|
+
|
31
|
+
//= include 'too_big_stylesheet'
|
32
|
+
|
33
|
+
You also need to remember to add those new files to the asset pipeline, so they will be compiled. For example:
|
34
|
+
|
35
|
+
# config/application.rb
|
36
|
+
|
37
|
+
module MyApp
|
38
|
+
class Application < Rails::Application
|
39
|
+
config.assets.precompile += %w( too_big_stylesheet_split2.css )
|
40
|
+
|
41
|
+
### 2. Including your split stylesheets
|
42
|
+
|
43
|
+
Now that you have split up your big stylesheets at the 4095 limit you need to change your HTML layout, so the split stylesheets are used for older IE versions (IE9 and older).
|
44
|
+
|
45
|
+
You can just use our `split_stylesheet_link_tag` helper, which would look something like this:
|
46
|
+
|
47
|
+
# app/views/layout/application.html.erb
|
48
|
+
<%= split_stylesheet_link_tag "too_big_stylesheet", :media => "all" %>
|
49
|
+
|
50
|
+
# output
|
51
|
+
<link href="/stylesheets/too_big_stylesheet.css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
|
52
|
+
<!--[if lte IE 9]>
|
53
|
+
<link href="/stylesheets/too_big_stylesheet_split2.css" media="screen" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
|
54
|
+
<![endif]-->
|
55
|
+
|
56
|
+
Or you can just create similar HTML as in the above example yourself.
|
57
|
+
|
58
|
+
## How it works
|
59
|
+
|
60
|
+
Basically, CssSplitter is registering a new `Sprockets::Engine` for the `.split2` file extension, that will fill those files with all the selectors beyond the 4095th. Unfortunately, those `.split2` files need to be created manually, because we haven't figured out a way for a `Sprockets::Engine` to output multiple files. They need to present before the compile step.
|
61
|
+
|
62
|
+
If you have more questions about how it works, look at the code or contact us.
|
63
|
+
|
64
|
+
|
65
|
+
## Limitations
|
66
|
+
|
67
|
+
Currently the gem only supports stylesheets that need to be split into 2 files. It could theoretically create more splits (e.g. if you should have more than 8190 selectors), but in that case you should probably refactor the stylesheets anyway. Contact us, if you have this requirement.

== 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.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.

|
198
|
+
|
199
|
+
app/assets
|
200
|
+
Contains subdirectories for images, stylesheets, and JavaScript files.
|
201
|
+
|
202
|
+
app/controllers
|
203
|
+
Holds controllers that should be named like weblogs_controller.rb for
|
204
|
+
automated URL mapping. All controllers should descend from
|
205
|
+
ApplicationController which itself descends from ActionController::Base.
|
206
|
+
|
207
|
+
app/models
|
208
|
+
Holds models that should be named like post.rb. Models descend from
|
209
|
+
ActiveRecord::Base by default.
|
210
|
+
|
211
|
+
app/views
|
212
|
+
Holds the template files for the view that should be named like
|
213
|
+
weblogs/index.html.erb for the WeblogsController#index action. All views use
|
214
|
+
eRuby syntax by default.
|
215
|
+
|
216
|
+
app/views/layouts
|
217
|
+
Holds the template files for layouts to be used with views. This models the
|
218
|
+
common header/footer method of wrapping views. In your views, define a layout
|
219
|
+
using the <tt>layout :default</tt> and create a file named default.html.erb.
|
220
|
+
Inside default.html.erb, call <% yield %> to render the view using this
|
221
|
+
layout.
|
222
|
+
|
223
|
+
app/helpers
|
224
|
+
Holds view helpers that should be named like weblogs_helper.rb. These are
|
225
|
+
generated for you automatically when using generators for controllers.
|
226
|
+
Helpers can be used to wrap functionality for your views into methods.
|
227
|
+
|
228
|
+
config
|
229
|
+
Configuration files for the Rails environment, the routing map, the database,
|
230
|

+
db
|
233
|
+
Contains the database schema in schema.rb. db/migrate contains all the
|
234
|
+
sequence of Migrations for your schema.
|
235
|
+
|
236
|
+
doc
|
237
|
+
This directory is where your application documentation will be stored when
|
238
|
+
generated using <tt>rake doc:app</tt>
|
239
|
+
|
240
|
+
lib
|
241
|
+
Application specific libraries. Basically, any kind of custom code that
|
242
|
+
doesn't belong under controllers, models, or helpers. This directory is in
|
243
|
+
the load path.
|
244
|
+
|
245
|
+
public
|
246
|
+
The directory available for the web server. Also contains the dispatchers and the
|
247
|
+
default HTML files. This should be set as the DOCUMENT_ROOT of your web
|
248
|
+
server.
|
249
|
+
|
250
|
+
script
|
251
