Merb-Slices
|
2
|
+
===========
|
3
|
+
|
4
|
+
Merb-Slices is a Merb plugin for using and creating application 'slices' which
|
5
|
+
help you modularize your application. Usually these are reuseable extractions
|
6
|
+
from your main app. In effect, a Slice is just like a regular Merb MVC
|
7
|
+
application, both in functionality as well as in structure.
|
8
|
+
|
9
|
+
When you generate a Slice stub structure, a module is setup to serve as a
|
10
|
+
namespace for your controller, models, helpers etc. This ensures maximum
|
11
|
+
encapsulation. You could say a Slice is a mixture between a Merb plugin (a
|
12
|
+
Gem) and a Merb application, reaping the benefits of both.
|
13
|
+
|
14
|
+
A host application can 'mount' a Slice inside the router, which means you have
|
15
|
+
full over control how it integrates. By default a Slice's routes are prefixed
|
16
|
+
by its name (a router :namespace), but you can easily provide your own prefix
|
17
|
+
or leave it out, mounting it at the root of your url-schema. You can even
|
18
|
+
mount a Slice multiple times and give extra parameters to customize an
|
19
|
+
instance's behaviour.
|
20
|
+
|
21
|
+
A Slice's Application controller uses controller_for_slice to setup slice
|
22
|
+
specific behaviour, which mainly affects cascaded view handling. Additionaly,
|
23
|
+
this method is available to any kind of controller, so it can be used for
|
24
|
+
Merb Mailer too for example.
|
25
|
+
|
26
|
+
There are many ways which let you customize a Slice's functionality and
|
27
|
+
appearance without ever touching the Gem-level code itself. It's not only easy
|
28
|
+
to add template/layout overrides, you can also add/modify controllers, models
|
29
|
+
and other runtime code from within the host application.
|
30
|
+
|
31
|
+
To create your own Slice run this (somewhere outside of your merb app):
|
32
|
+
|
33
|
+
$ merb-gen slice <your-lowercase-slice-name>
|
34
|
+
|
35

Instructions for installation of an imaginary 'BlogSlice' slice:
|
38
|
+
|
39
|
+
file: config/init.rb
|
40
|
+
|
41
|
+
# add the slice as a regular dependency
|
42
|
+
|
43
|
+
dependency 'blog-slice'
|
44
|
+
|
45
|
+
# if needed, configure which slices to load and in which order
|
46
|
+
|
47
|
+
Merb::Plugins.config[:merb_slices] = { :queue => ["BlogSlice", ...] }
|
48
|
+
|
49
|
+
# optionally configure the plugins in a before_app_loads callback
|
50
|
+
|
51
|
+
Merb::BootLoader.before_app_loads do
|
52
|
+
|
53
|
+
Merb::Slices::config[:blog_slice] = { ... }
|
54
|
+
|
55
|
+
end
|
56
|
+
|
57
|
+
file: config/router.rb
|
58
|
+
|
59
|
+
# example: /blog-slice/:controller/:action/:id
|
60
|
+
|
61
|
+
r.add_slice(:BlogSlice)
|
62
|
+
|
63
|
+
# example: /foo/:controller/:action/:id
|
64
|
+
|
65
|
+
r.add_slice(:BlogSlice, 'foo') # same as :path => 'foo'
|
66
|
+
|
67
|
+
# example: /:lang/:controller/:action/:id (with :a param set)
|
68
|
+
|
69
|
+
r.add_slice(:BlogSlice, :path => ':lang', :params => { :a => 'b' })
|
70
|
+
|
71
|
+
# example: /:controller/:action/:id
|
72
|
+
|
73
|
+
r.slice(:BlogSlice)
|
74
|
+
|
75
|
+
Normally you should also run the following rake task:
|
76
|
+
|
77
|
+
rake slices:blog_slice:install
|
78
|
+
|
79
|
+
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
80
|
+
|
81
|
+
You can put your application-level overrides in:
|
82
|
+
|
83
|
+
host-app/slices/blog-slice/app - controllers, models, views ...
|
84
|
+
|
85
|
+
Templates are located in this order:
|
86
|
+
|
87
|
+
1. host-app/slices/blog-slice/app/views/*
|
88
|
+
2. gems/blog-slice/app/views/*
|
89
|
+
3. host-app/app/views/*
|
90
|
+
|
91
|
+
You can use the host application's layout by configuring the
|
92
|
+
blog-slice slice in a before_app_loads block:
|
93
|
+
|
94
|
+
Merb::Slices.config[:blog_slice] = { :layout => :application }
|
95
|
+
|
96
|
+
By default :blog_slice is used. If you need to override
|
97
|
+
stylesheets or javascripts, just specify your own files in your layout
|
98
|
+
instead/in addition to the ones supplied (if any) in
|
99
|
+
host-app/public/slices/blog-slice.
|
100
|
+
|
101
|
+
In any case don't edit those files directly as they may be clobbered any time
|
102
|
+
rake blog_slice:install is run.

1. Rake tasks to package/install the gem - edit this to modify the manifest.
|
49
|
+
2. The slice application: controllers, models, helpers, views.
|
50
|
+
3. The default layout, as specified in Merb::Slices::config[:<%= symbol_name %>][:layout]
|
51
|
+
change this to :application to use the app's layout.
|
52
|
+
4. Standard rake tasks available to your application.
|
53
|
+
5. Your custom application rake tasks.
|
54
|
+
6. The main slice file - contains all slice setup logic/config.
|
55
|
+
7. Public assets you (optionally) install using rake slices:<%= symbol_name %>:install
|
56
|
+
8. Specs for basis slice behaviour - you usually adapt these for your slice.
|
57
|
+
9. Stubs of classes/views/files for the end-user to override - usually these
|
58
|
+
mimic the files in app/ and/or public/; use rake slices:<%= symbol_name %>:stubs to
|
59
|
+
get started with the override stubs. Also, slices:<%= symbol_name %>:patch will
|
60
|
+
copy over views to override in addition to the files found in /stubs.
|
61
|
+
|
62
|
+
|
63
|
+
To see all available tasks for <%= module_name %> run:
|
64
|
+
|
65
|
+
rake -T slices:<%= symbol_name %>
|
66
|
+
|

Instructions for installation:
|
70
|
+
|
71
|
+
file: config/init.rb
|
72
|
+
|
73
|
+
# add the slice as a regular dependency
|
74
|
+
|
75
|
+
dependency '<%= base_name %>'
|
76
|
+
|
77
|
+
# if needed, configure which slices to load and in which order
|
78
|
+
|
79
|
+
Merb::Plugins.config[:merb_slices] = { :queue => ["<%= module_name %>", ...] }
|
80
|
+
|
81
|
+
# optionally configure the plugins in a before_app_loads callback
|
82
|
+
|
83
|
+
Merb::BootLoader.before_app_loads do
|
84
|
+
|
85
|
+
Merb::Slices::config[:<%= symbol_name %>][:option] = value
|
86
|
+
|
87
|
+
end
|
88
|
+
|
89
|
+
file: config/router.rb
|
90
|
+
|
91
|
+
# example: /<%= symbol_name %>/:controller/:action/:id
|
92
|
+
|
93
|
+
r.add_slice(:<%= module_name %>)
|
94
|
+
|
95
|
+
# example: /foo/:controller/:action/:id
|
96
|
+
|
97
|
+
r.add_slice(:<%= module_name %>, 'foo') # same as :path => 'foo'
|
98
|
+
|
99
|
+
# example: /:lang/:controller/:action/:id (with :a param set)
|
100
|
+
|
101
|
+
r.add_slice(:<%= module_name %>, :path => ':lang', :params => { :a => 'b' })
|
102
|
+
|
103
|
+
# example: /:controller/:action/:id
|
104
|
+
|
105
|
+
r.slice(:<%= module_name %>)
|
106
|
+
|
107
|
+
Normally you should also run the following rake task:
|
108
|
+
|
109
|
+
rake slices:<%= symbol_name %>:install
|
110
|
+
|
111
|
+
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
112
|
+
|
113
|
+
You can put your application-level overrides in:
|
114
|
+
|
115
|
+
host-app/slices/<%= base_name %>/app - controllers, models, views ...
|
116
|
+
|
117
|
+
Templates are located in this order:
|
118
|
+
|
119
|
+
1. host-app/slices/<%= base_name %>/app/views/*
|
120
|
+
2. gems/<%= base_name %>/app/views/*
|
121
|
+
3. host-app/app/views/*
|
122
|
+
|
123
|
+
You can use the host application's layout by configuring the
|
124
|
+
<%= base_name %> slice in a before_app_loads block:
|
125
|
+
|
126
|
+
Merb::Slices.config[:<%= symbol_name %>] = { :layout => :application }
|
127
|
+
|
128
|
+
By default :<%= symbol_name %> is used. If you need to override
|
129
|
+
stylesheets or javascripts, just specify your own files in your layout
|
130
|
+
instead/in addition to the ones supplied (if any) in
|
131
|
+
host-app/public/slices/<%= base_name %>.
|
132
|
+
|
133
|
+
In any case don't edit those files directly as they may be clobbered any time
|
134
|
+
rake <%= symbol_name %>:install is run.
|
135
|
+

About Slices
|
139
|
+
============
|
140
|
+
|
141
|
+
Merb-Slices is a Merb plugin for using and creating application 'slices' which
|
142
|
+
help you modularize your application. Usually these are reuseable extractions
|
143
|
+
from your main app. In effect, a Slice is just like a regular Merb MVC
|
144
|
+
application, both in functionality as well as in structure.
|
145
|
+
|
146
|
+
When you generate a Slice stub structure, a module is setup to serve as a
|
147
|
+
namespace for your controller, models, helpers etc. This ensures maximum
|
148
|
+
encapsulation. You could say a Slice is a mixture between a Merb plugin (a
|
149
|
+
Gem) and a Merb application, reaping the benefits of both.
|
150
|
+
|
151
|
+
A host application can 'mount' a Slice inside the router, which means you have
|
152
|
+
full over control how it integrates. By default a Slice's routes are prefixed
|
153
|
+
by its name (a router :namespace), but you can easily provide your own prefix
|
154
|
+
or leave it out, mounting it at the root of your url-schema. You can even
|
155
|
+
mount a Slice multiple times and give extra parameters to customize an
|
156
|
+
instance's behaviour.
|
157
|
+
|
158
|
+
A Slice's Application controller uses controller_for_slice to setup slice
|
159
|
+
specific behaviour, which mainly affects cascaded view handling. Additionaly,
|
160
|
+
this method is available to any kind of controller, so it can be used for
|
161
|
+
Merb Mailer too for example.
|
162
|
+
|
163
|
+
There are many ways which let you customize a Slice's functionality and
|
164
|
+
appearance without ever touching the Gem-level code itself. It's not only easy
|
165
|
+
to add template/layout overrides, you can also add/modify controllers, models
|
166
|
+
and other runtime code from within the host application.
|
167
|
+
|
168
|
+
To create your own Slice run this (somewhere outside of your merb app):
|
169
|
+
|
170
|
+
$ merb-gen slice <your-lowercase-slice-name>
