Description

A Dashing widget that checks whether a server is responding to either an http or ping request. It displays either a check or alert depending on the response.

Usage

Screencasting Framework

The following document is a written account of the Code School screencasting framework. It should be used as a reference of the accompanying screencast on the topic.

Why you should care about screencasting?

You're probably aren't going to take the time to read this document if you're not interested, but there are a lot of nice side effects caused by learning how to create quality screencasts.

Communicating more effectively - At Envy Labs we produce screencasts for our clients all the time. Whether it's demoing a new feature or for a presentation for an invester, they're often much more effective and pleasent than a phone call or screen sharing.

Friendly URLs

By default, Rails applications build URLs based on the primary key -- the id column from the database. Imagine we have a Person model and associated controller. We have a person record for Bob Martin that has id number 6. The URL for his show page would be:

/people/6

But, for aesthetic or SEO purposes, we want Bob's name in the URL. The last segment, the 6 here, is called the "slug". Let's look at a few ways to implement better slugs.

	rtm.createWorker = function () {
	if (typeof SharedWorker === 'undefined') {
	return false; // значит, что браузер не умеет такой тип воркеров
	}
	try {
	rtm.worker = new SharedWorker("/rtm/ww.js"); // это урл воркера, его идентификатор
	rtm.worker.port.addEventListener("message", function (msg) {
	rtm.onMessage(msg); // это мой обработчик сообщений от воркера

	require "uri"

	(URI::REGEXP.constants - ["PATTERN"]).each do \|rc\|
	puts "#{rc}: #{URI::REGEXP.const_get(rc)}"
	end

	URI::REGEXP::PATTERN.constants.each do \|pc\|
	puts "#{pc}: #{URI::REGEXP::PATTERN.const_get(pc)}"
	end
