Generate scaffold

To create a model called HighScore with a game field of type strubg and a score field of type integer you would do the following:

bundle exec rails generate scaffold HighScore game:string score:integer
    invoke  active_record
    create    db/migrate/20130717151933_create_high_scores.rb
    create    app/models/high_score.rb
    invoke    test_unit

Go Bootcamp

All of the course material is open source and available here. I took the 3 day language class. You can find the agenda here.

Highlights

Slices of Slices

Slices of slices behave a little differently than I expected.

docker-compose

I really struggled to get docker-compose installed on my machine. By default the mac does not include pip so I opted to install python using brew. I then tried to install docker-compose and had issues with an incompatible requests (See issue). After switching to a different version of requests, I ran into issues with openssl (See issue.

Ultimately I removed brew's version of python and did the following:

sudo easy_install pip
sudo pip install docker-compose==1.1.0-rc2
sudo pip uninstall requests
sudo pip install requests==2.4.3

	def request(verb, endpoint, opts={})
	retry_on_auth_failure do
	cached_token.request(verb, endpoint, opts)
	end
	end

	def retry_on_auth_failure(retries=1, timeout=0, &block)
	attempts_remaining = retries
	begin
	yield

	ui = auto

	meta = yellow bold

	old = red reverse

	#!/bin/bash

	export FOG_RC=/var/lib/jenkins/.fog

	# Use the correct ruby
	rvm use "ruby-1.9.3-p484@fog_test"

	# Set "fail on error" in bash
	set -e

	#/bin/env bash
	sudo killall VDCAssistant
