The request referrer is the URL you come from. It's set by the browser when you click a link (all browsers) and in Javascript click events too (all but the Internet Explorer family).
If you click a link on a page:
request.referer == request.referrer == request.env['HTTP_REFERER']
So far so good. But if you write the URL straight into the browser:
request.referer == request.env['HTTP_REFERER'] == nil
however
request.referrer == '/'
instead of nil.
This seems to happen in our current version of Rails, although not in Rails >= 3.x...
Gave a shot to the new Bundler 1.4.0RC1 during the weekend and found out it now supports gem installation in parallel. To invoke you need to pass --jobs
parameter with number of threads you want it to run – for me the best performance was achieved by specifying the number physical CPU cores.
I've tested on the AppFab app. In my case (CPU with 2-core i7 with HT) the speedup was 50%. I've also tried with a number greater than the number of physical cores but the performance was 15%-20% worse.

When using
var onDone = function() { ... }
var onFail = function() { ... }
var params = { ... }
var url = ...
$.ajax({
type: 'put',
url: url,
contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
data: JSON.stringify(params),
})
.done(onDone)
.fail(onFail);
Always make sure your rails controller returns something:
if @property.update_attributes(params[:property])
render :json => { :ok => true }, :status => :ok
else
render :json => { :ok => false }, :status => :unpro...
wkhtmltopdf
hangs on mac during cucumber unless we click on it. The main reason is with the version we use which is 0.11.0_rc1 and in out app/bin we have another version and it is a known issue with these versions. The fix is to go to 0.9.9, to downgrade the version we installed earlier using brew:
* brew uninstall wkhtmltopdf
* brew update
* brew versions wkhtmltopdf
* if you see output like
* `0.9.9 git checkout 6e2d550 /usr/local/Library/Formula/wkhtmltopdf.rb`
then `cd /usr/local`

Now no more bundle exec
before any rake, cap, spec or anything else :)
