• Ruby on Rails server running in production mode still shows lots of error details?

  - by Jian Lin

  I thought I read that when a Ruby on Rails server is running in production mode, it won't say so much about an error (the details, showing the code)... but I just try to run the server using ruby script/server -e production and add a <%= x %> with the local variable x undefined. It showed a lot of error details including the code... is…

  - by Jian Lin

  In Ruby on Rails, http://localhost:3000/foobars/alt/1 works but http://localhost:3000/foobars/alt/1.xml doesn't work. config/route.rb is map.connect ':controller/:action/:id' map.connect ':controller/:action/:id.:format' so supposedly it supports an id.format in the URL?

• Why does FastCGI not work well with Ruby on Rails?

  - by Jian Lin

  It is said that FastCGI doesn't work well with Ruby on Rails deployment. Why is that? In previous experience, something either works quite well or it might be fundamentally wrong. So if FastCGI is a viable solution, why is it not reliable with RoR? Does FastCGI work well with most any language / frameworks?

  In our project files, if there are binary files, such as .doc, .xls, .jpg, and we choose to not keep their past revisions (just keeping a latest version is ok), is there a way to tell SVN, Git, or Mercurial or some other tool to skip the revisions for these files or for a particular folder? Say, there is a 4MB .doc file that I need…

  Say, using MySQL, if the movies table has 20,000 records, and each record has a field that is the description of the movie, up to 2k byte long. How can we search for movies with the word "nature" in its description? If possible, it is to be fast, instead of going through all the 20,000 records. (if in some other…

• TextMate can show definition of a function easily?

  - by Jian Lin

  I am using TextMate on a Ruby on Rails project and wonder if you can put the mouse on link_to, and then press a key and it will show the definition of link_to, or does this for any other helper functions? Or, click open a box and type in a function name and it will show you the definition?

• In Javascript, a function starts a new scope, but we have to be careful that the function must be in

  In Javascript, I am sometimes too immerged in the idea that a function creates a new scope, that sometimes I even think the following anonymous function will create a new scope when it is being defined and assigned to onclick: <a href="#" id="link1">ha link 1</a> <a href="#" id="link2">ha link…

  Usually when looking for some items not showing up in the other table, we can use: select * from gifts where giftID not in (select giftID from sentgifts); or select * from gifts where giftID not in (select distinct giftID from sentgifts); the second line is with "distinct" added, so that the resulting…

• In CSS, does it make sense or is it legal to nest an id in another id -- such as "#main #display img

  - by Jian Lin

  In CSS, if it is #main #display img { height: 80px } that means all images within an element with id display that is within another element with id main. But does it make sense or is it legal since id seems to be just global names. It is because SASS actually allow nesting and some code may nest it…

  Can TextMate be changed to "shift text to right" by highlighting text and pressing Tab? Right now it actually replace the whole selected text with a tab character but I almost never want to do something like that. I think some other editors like Notepad++ will indent to the next level.

• why adding a simple div to HAML will break the code?

  it is quite strange that the following works: - 1.upto(30) do |i| = i %br but the following won't: %div this line - 1.upto(30) do |i| = i %br Isn't the second part just to add a div and let the numbers go into that div?

  Whenever there is a many-to-many relationship, I think there will be immediately a many-to-many table needed (also called a junction table). Is there any advantage of using special naming convention for these tables, as opposed to the other 1 to many tables? Or are there popular special naming…

  The following question is related to the question "Ruby Print Inject Do Syntax". My question is, can we insist on using do and end and make it work with puts or p? This works: a = [1,2,3,4] b = a.inject do |sum, x| sum + x end puts b # prints out 10 so, is it correct to say, inject is…
