- <h2>Rails Application Templates</h2>
99
- <p>Application templates are simple Ruby files containing <span class="caps">DSL</span> for adding plugins/gems/initializers etc. to your freshly created Rails project or an existing Rails project.</p>
100
- <p>By referring to this guide, you will be able to:</p>
101
- <ul>
102
- <li>Use templates to generate/customize Rails applications</li>
103
- <li>Write your own reusable application templates using the Rails template <span class="caps">API</span></li>
104
- </ul>

- <h3 id="usage">1 Usage</h3>
117
- <p>To apply a template, you need to provide the Rails generator with the location of the template you wish to apply, using -m option. This can either be path to a file or a <span class="caps">URL</span>.</p>
118
- <div class="code_container">
119
- <pre class="brush: plain; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
120
- $ rails new blog -m ~/template.rb
121
- $ rails new blog -m http://example.com/template.rb
122
- </pre>
123
- </div>
124
- <p>You can use the rake task <tt>rails:template</tt> to apply templates to an existing Rails application. The location of the template needs to be passed in to an environment variable named <span class="caps">LOCATION</span>. Again, this can either be path to a file or a <span class="caps">URL</span>.</p>
125
- <div class="code_container">
126
- <pre class="brush: plain; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
127
- $ rake rails:template LOCATION=~/template.rb
128
- $ rake rails:template LOCATION=http://example.com/template.rb

131
- <h3 id="template-api">2 Template <span class="caps">API</span></h3>
132
- <p>Rails templates <span class="caps">API</span> is very self explanatory and easy to understand. Here&#8217;s an example of a typical Rails template:</p>
133
- <div class="code_container">
134
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
135
- # template.rb
136
- run &quot;rm public/index.html&quot;
137
- generate(:scaffold, &quot;person name:string&quot;)
138
- route &quot;root :to =&gt; 'people#index'&quot;
139
- rake(&quot;db:migrate&quot;)
140
-
141
- git :init
142
- git :add =&gt; &quot;.&quot;
143
- git :commit =&gt; &quot;-a -m 'Initial commit'&quot;
144
- </pre>
145
- </div>
146
- <p>The following sections outlines the primary methods provided by the <span class="caps">API</span>:</p>
147
- <h4 id="gem-name-options">2.1 gem(name, options = {})</h4>
148
- <p>Adds a <tt>gem</tt> entry for the supplied gem to the generated application’s <tt>Gemfile</tt>.</p>
149
- <p>For example, if your application depends on the gems <tt>bj</tt> and <tt>nokogiri</tt>:</p>
150
- <div class="code_container">
151
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
152
- gem &quot;bj&quot;
153
- gem &quot;nokogiri&quot;
154
- </pre>
155
- </div>
156
- <p>Please note that this will <span class="caps">NOT</span> install the gems for you and you will have to run <tt>bundle install</tt> to do that.</p>
157
- <div class="code_container">
158
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
159
- bundle install
160
- </pre>
161
- </div>
162
- <h4 id="gem_group-names-block">2.2 gem_group(*names, &amp;block)</h4>
163
- <p>Wraps gem entries inside a group.</p>
164
- <p>For example, if you want to load <tt>rspec-rails</tt> only in <tt>development</tt> and <tt>test</tt> group:</p>
165
- <div class="code_container">
166
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
167
- gem_group :development, :test do
168
- gem &quot;rspec-rails&quot;
169
- end
170
- </pre>
171
- </div>
172
- <h4 id="add_source-source-options">2.3 add_source(source, options = {})</h4>
173
- <p>Adds the given source to the generated application&#8217;s <tt>Gemfile</tt>.</p>
174
- <p>For example, if you need to source a gem from &#8220;http://code.whytheluckystiff.net&#8221;:</p>
175
- <div class="code_container">
176
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
177
- add_source &quot;http://code.whytheluckystiff.net&quot;
178
- </pre>
179
- </div>
180
- <h4 id="plugin-name-options">2.4 plugin(name, options = {})</h4>
181
- <p>Installs a plugin to the generated application.</p>
182
- <p>Plugin can be installed from Git:</p>
183
- <div class="code_container">
184
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
185
- plugin 'authentication', :git =&gt; 'git://github.com/foor/bar.git'
186
- </pre>
187
- </div>
188
- <p>You can even install plugins as git submodules:</p>
189
- <div class="code_container">
190
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
191
- plugin 'authentication', :git =&gt; 'git://github.com/foor/bar.git',
192
- :submodule =&gt; true
193
- </pre>
194
- </div>
195
- <p>Please note that you need to <tt>git :init</tt> before you can install a plugin as a submodule.</p>
196
- <p>Or use plain old <span class="caps">SVN</span>:</p>
197
- <div class="code_container">
198
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
199
- plugin 'usingsvn', :svn =&gt; 'svn://example.com/usingsvn/trunk'
200
- </pre>
201
- </div>
202
- <h4 id="vendor-lib-file-initializer-filename-data-nil-block">2.5 vendor/lib/file/initializer(filename, data = nil, &amp;block)</h4>
203
- <p>Adds an initializer to the generated application’s <tt>config/initializers</tt> directory.</p>
204
- <p>Lets say you like using <tt>Object#not_nil?</tt> and <tt>Object#not_blank?</tt>:</p>
205
- <div class="code_container">
206
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
207
- initializer 'bloatlol.rb', &lt;&lt;-CODE
208
- class Object
209
- def not_nil?
210
- !nil?
211
- end
212
-
213
- def not_blank?
214
- !blank?
215
- end
216
- end
217
- CODE
218
- </pre>
219
- </div>
220
- <p>Similarly <tt>lib()</tt> creates a file in the <tt>lib/</tt> directory and <tt>vendor()</tt> creates a file in the <tt>vendor/</tt> directory.</p>
221
- <p>There is even <tt>file()</tt>, which accepts a relative path from <tt>Rails.root</tt> and creates all the directories/file needed:</p>
222
- <div class="code_container">
223
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
224
- file 'app/components/foo.rb', &lt;&lt;-CODE
225
- class Foo
226
- end
227
- CODE
228
- </pre>
229
- </div>
230
- <p>That’ll create <tt>app/components</tt> directory and put <tt>foo.rb</tt> in there.</p>
231
- <h4 id="rakefile-filename-data-nil-block">2.6 rakefile(filename, data = nil, &amp;block)</h4>
232
- <p>Creates a new rake file under <tt>lib/tasks</tt> with the supplied tasks:</p>
233
- <div class="code_container">
234
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
235
- rakefile(&quot;bootstrap.rake&quot;) do
236
- &lt;&lt;-TASK
237
- namespace :boot do
238
- task :strap do
239
- puts &quot;i like boots!&quot;
240
- end
241
- end
242
- TASK
243
- end
244
- </pre>
245
- </div>
246
- <p>The above creates <tt>lib/tasks/bootstrap.rake</tt> with a <tt>boot:strap</tt> rake task.</p>
247
- <h4 id="generate-what-args">2.7 generate(what, args)</h4>
248
- <p>Runs the supplied rails generator with given arguments.</p>
249
- <div class="code_container">
250
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
251
- generate(:scaffold, &quot;person&quot;, &quot;name:string&quot;, &quot;address:text&quot;, &quot;age:number&quot;)
252
- </pre>
253
- </div>
254
- <h4 id="run-command">2.8 run(command)</h4>
255
- <p>Executes an arbitrary command. Just like the backticks. Let&#8217;s say you want to remove the <tt>public/index.html</tt> file:</p>
256
- <div class="code_container">
257
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
258
- run &quot;rm public/index.html&quot;
259
- </pre>
260
- </div>
261
- <h4 id="rake-command-options">2.9 rake(command, options = {})</h4>
262
- <p>Runs the supplied rake tasks in the Rails application. Let&#8217;s say you want to migrate the database:</p>
263
- <div class="code_container">
264
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
265
- rake &quot;db:migrate&quot;
266
- </pre>
267
- </div>
268
- <p>You can also run rake tasks with a different Rails environment:</p>
269
- <div class="code_container">
270
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
271
- rake &quot;db:migrate&quot;, :env =&gt; 'production'
272
- </pre>
273
- </div>
274
- <h4 id="route-routing_code">2.10 route(routing_code)</h4>
275
- <p>This adds a routing entry to the <tt>config/routes.rb</tt> file. In above steps, we generated a person scaffold and also removed <tt>public/index.html</tt>. Now to make <tt>PeopleController#index</tt> as the default page for the application:</p>
276
- <div class="code_container">
277
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
278
- route &quot;root :to =&gt; 'person#index'&quot;
279
- </pre>
280
- </div>
281
- <h4 id="inside-dir">2.11 inside(dir)</h4>
282
- <p>Enables you to run a command from the given directory. For example, if you have a copy of edge rails that you wish to symlink from your new apps, you can do this:</p>
283
- <div class="code_container">
284
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
285
- inside('vendor') do
286
- run &quot;ln -s ~/commit-rails/rails rails&quot;
287
- end
288
- </pre>
289
- </div>
290
- <h4 id="ask-question">2.12 ask(question)</h4>
291
- <p><tt>ask()</tt> gives you a chance to get some feedback from the user and use it in your templates. Lets say you want your user to name the new shiny library you’re adding:</p>
292
- <div class="code_container">
293
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
294
- lib_name = ask(&quot;What do you want to call the shiny library ?&quot;)
295
- lib_name &lt;&lt; &quot;.rb&quot; unless lib_name.index(&quot;.rb&quot;)
296
-
297
- lib lib_name, &lt;&lt;-CODE
298
- class Shiny
299
- end
300
- CODE
301
- </pre>
302
- </div>
303
- <h4 id="yes-question-or-no-question">2.13 yes?(question) or no?(question)</h4>
304
- <p>These methods let you ask questions from templates and decide the flow based on the user’s answer. Lets say you want to freeze rails only if the user want to:</p>
305
- <div class="code_container">
306
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
307
- rake(&quot;rails:freeze:gems&quot;) if yes?(&quot;Freeze rails gems ?&quot;)
308
- no?(question) acts just the opposite.
309
- </pre>
310
- </div>
311
- <h4 id="git-command">2.14 git(:command)</h4>
312
- <p>Rails templates let you run any git command:</p>
313
- <div class="code_container">
314
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
315
- git :init
316
- git :add =&gt; &quot;.&quot;
317
- git :commit =&gt; &quot;-a -m 'Initial commit'&quot;
318

120
- <p>Rack provides a minimal, modular and adaptable interface for developing web applications in Ruby. By wrapping <span class="caps">HTTP</span> requests and responses in the simplest way possible, it unifies and distills the <span class="caps">API</span> for web servers, web frameworks, and software in between (the so-called middleware) into a single method call.</p>

- <p><tt>ActionController::Dispatcher.new</tt> is the primary Rack application object of a Rails application. Any Rack compliant web server should be using <tt>ActionController::Dispatcher.new</tt> object to serve a Rails application.</p>
127
- <h4 id="rails-server">2.2 <tt>rails server</tt></h4>
128
- <p><tt>rails server</tt> does the basic job of creating a <tt>Rack::Builder</tt> object and starting the webserver. This is Rails&#8217; equivalent of Rack&#8217;s <tt>rackup</tt> script.</p>
129
- <p>Here&#8217;s how <tt>rails server</tt> creates an instance of <tt>Rack::Builder</tt></p>

184
- <p>Many of Action Controller&#8217;s internal components are implemented as Rack middlewares. <tt>ActionController::Dispatcher</tt> uses <tt>ActionController::MiddlewareStack</tt> to combine various internal and external middlewares to form a complete Rails Rack application.</p>
185
- <div class="note"><p><tt>ActionController::MiddlewareStack</tt> is Rails&#8217; equivalent of <tt>Rack::Builder</tt>, but built for better flexibility and more features to meet Rails&#8217; requirements.</p></div>

189
- <pre class="brush: plain; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
190
- $ rake middleware

218
- <h4 id="configuring-middleware-stack">3.2 Configuring Middleware Stack</h4>
219
- <p>Rails provides a simple configuration interface <tt>config.middleware</tt> for adding, removing and modifying the middlewares in the middleware stack via <tt>application.rb</tt> or the environment specific configuration file <tt>environments/&lt;environment&gt;.rb</tt>.</p>
220
- <h5 id="adding-a-middleware">3.2.1 Adding a Middleware</h5>
221
- <p>You can add a new middleware to the middleware stack using any of the following methods:</p>
222
- <ul>
223
- <li><tt>config.middleware.use(new_middleware, args)</tt> &#8211; Adds the new middleware at the bottom of the middleware stack.</li>
224
- </ul>
225
- <ul>
226
- <li><tt>config.middleware.insert_before(existing_middleware, new_middleware, args)</tt> &#8211; Adds the new middleware before the specified existing middleware in the middleware stack.</li>
227
- </ul>
228
- <ul>
229
- <li><tt>config.middleware.insert_after(existing_middleware, new_middleware, args)</tt> &#8211; Adds the new middleware after the specified existing middleware in the middleware stack.</li>

231
- <div class="code_container">
232
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
233

245
- <div class="code_container">
246
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">

253
- <h5 id="middleware-stack-is-an-array">3.2.3 Middleware Stack is an Array</h5>
254
- <p>The middleware stack behaves just like a normal <tt>Array</tt>. You can use any <tt>Array</tt> methods to insert, reorder, or remove items from the stack. Methods described in the section above are just convenience methods.</p>
255
- <p>For example, the following removes the middleware matching the supplied class name:</p>
256
- <div class="code_container">
257
- <pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
258
