This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.
While doing some routine maintenance on our server, I needed a quick way to check which actual versions of Rails I needed. Over time, many versions are installed that can lead to wasted space and confusion later on. So, I whipped up a quick one-liner that I can run to give me all versions of Rails running on our server.
This returns all Rails gem versions in a neat, sorted array:
I’ve moved one of our projects over to edge rails after hearing about the new support for multiple routes files. I’ve been wanting this for a long time. It’s pretty easy to setup too:
First, make your custom routes file in config/
Next, add an initializer to load that routes file on boot:
If you clone from a master repo for custom projects, this is ideal as it won’t muck up the core routes file annoying you with conflicts and such.
The centipede was very good at walking with its hundred legs. It never spent a thought on just how it could walk. Until one day, when a big black bug asked the centipede “How can you manage to walk with all those feet? Don’t you find it hard to coordinate their rhythm?” The black bug already left, when the centipede was still sitting down, pondering how it could walk, wondering, and (for the first time in his life) even worrying a little bit. From that day on, the centipede couldn’t walk anymore.
