Double Shot #1191

Aug 30, 2013

  • TorqueBox 3.0.0 Released - Lots of changes in this JRuby-based Ruby application server.
  • The Web Developer's SEO Cheat Sheet 2.0 - Best practices, not scamminess.
  • Inability to compile nondigest and digest assets breaks compatibility with bad gems - Or with anything else that wants to use a nondigested asset URL in Rails 4. If you don't care for the core team's "tough shit" attitude, there are workarounds here, here, and here. Don't make a nondigested manifest file, though, as that will break Capistrano deployments.
  • rubyzip 1.0.0 - Major milestone in the library for working with zip files. Beware, though, all the class names changed.
  • docx_builder - The code I'm using these days to build Microsoft Word XML files. It does just what our project needs and no more.
  • Parallel gem installing using Bundler - Turns out there's a command-line switch to use multiple workers.
