2015-01-29 Unofficial Relay FAQ

Compilation of questions and answers about Relay from React.js Conf.

Disclaimer: I work on Relay at Facebook. Relay is a complex system on which we're iterating aggressively. I'll do my best here to provide accurate, useful answers, but the details are subject to change. I may also be wrong. Feedback and additional questions are welcome.

What is Relay?

Relay is a new framework from Facebook that provides data-fetching functionality for React applications. It was announced at React.js Conf (January 2015).

I. Create a Middleman project with middleman-ember-template

$ middleman init hello --template=ember

II. Install ember.js package

$ bower install ember

	#!/bin/bash
	if [ "$GIT_SSH_KEY" != "" ]; then
	echo "Cleaning up SSH config" >&1
	echo "" >&1

	# Now that npm has finished running,
	# we shouldn't need the ssh key/config anymore.
	# Remove the files that we created.
	rm -f ~/.ssh/config
	rm -f ~/.ssh/deploy_key

	/**
	* Page layout, reused across multiple Page components
	* @jsx React.DOM
	*/

	var React = require('react');
	var ExecutionEnvironment = require('react/lib/ExecutionEnvironment');
	var Navigation = require('../components/Navigation.jsx');

	var DefaultLayout = React.createClass({

	#!/bin/sh

	# for use w/ codeship.io
	set -e
	set -u

	# a reference to the cloned repository's path

	METEOR_APP_PATH="$PWD/MeteorApp"

	# METEOR CORE:

	QUnit.config.testTimeout = 4000;

	/global $ App/
	Ember.onLoad('application', function(application) {
	//application.deferReadiness();
	});

	Ember.onLoad('Ember.Application', function(Application) {
	Application.initializer({

	# Functions ==============================================

	# return 1 if global command line program installed, else 0
	# example
	# echo "node: $(program_is_installed node)"
	function program_is_installed {
	# set to 1 initially
	local return_=1

	# define a method to run rake tasks
	def run_rake(task, options={}, &block)
	rake = fetch(:rake, 'rake')
	rails_env = fetch(:rails_env, 'production')

	command = "cd #{current_path} && #{rake} #{task} RAILS_ENV=#{rails_env}"
	run(command, options, &block)
	end
