Three Points
1) Interface Think About Your
1) Interface Think About Your 2) Data
1) Interface Think About Your 2) Data 3) Code
Your Interface Think About
“ John Nunemaker ORMs too often lead to interface laziness.
site.memberships.create({ :user_id => user.id, :owner => true, })
site.add_owner(user)
membership.update_attributes({ :state => 1, })
membership.update_attributes({ :state => 'maximized', })
user.maximize(site)
content.to_json({ 'a crap ton': 'of options' })
ContentPresenter.new(site, date, { :page => params['page'], }).to_json
class ContentPresenter include BasePresenter def initialize(site, date, options={}) @site, @date
= site, date @options = options end def page # ... def per_page # ... def total # ... def path # ... def prev_path # ... def next_path # ... def next_page_path # ... def prev_page_path # ... def paginated # ... def content # ...
def path # ... def prev_path # ... def next_path
# ... def next_page_path # ... def prev_page_path # ... def paginated # ... def content # ... def as_json(options = nil) { 'date' => @date.to_s, 'prev_path' => prev_path, 'next_path' => next_path, 'content' => content, 'page' => page, 'per_page' => per_page, 'total' => total, 'prev_page_path' => prev_page_path, 'next_page_path' => next_page_path, } end end
Content.paginate({ :conditions => { :site_id => site.id, :date => date,
}, :page => params['page'], :per_page => 15, })
site.content_for_date(date, { :page => params['page'], })
Your Interface Think About
Your Data Think About
“ John Nunemaker ORMs sometimes hide creative ways you can
store and retrieve your data.
Failure and Triumph A Story of
{ '_id' => 'site_id:2011-03-28', '/' => {'v' => 200, 't'
=> 'Home'}, '/about/' => {'v' => 50, 't' => 'About'}, '/foo/' => {'v' => 23, 't' => 'Foo!'}, }
You say heresy! I say use case...
None
Content.get("#{site.id}:2011-03-28")
None
write data ensure_index(site_id, date, path)
read data ensure_index(site_id, date, views)
{ '_id' => BSON::ObjectId.new, 'sid' => site_id, 'p' => '/about/',
'd' => '2011-03-28', 'v' => 50, }
NewContent.for_site_and_date(site, date)
db['c.2011.5']
db['c.2011.5'] read index write index
db['c.2011.4'] => db['c.2011.5'] read index write index
None
/about/
/this/is/my/really/long/ and/descriptive/path/and/ of/course/we/need/to/ have/a/query/string? gibberish=true&yunolikesh orturls=false#DontForgetT oHashTagIt
None
Zlib.crc32('...really long path...') 762151429
Counts Every bit
Integers
Site.create(:state => 'enabled')
class Site States = { 'enabled' => 1, 'disabled' =>
2, } end Site.create({ :state => Site::States['enabled'], })
class Site def enabled? state == States['enabled'] end def disabled?
!enabled? end end
Compression
require 'rsmaz' compressed = RSmaz.compress(str) decompressed = RSmaz.decompress(compressed)
require 'zlib' compressed = Zlib::Deflate.deflate(str) decompressed = Zlib::Inflate.inflate(compressed)
require 'msgpack' ids = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10] compressed = MessagePack.pack(ids) decompressed =
MessagePack.unpack(compressed)
class Stylesheet class RSmazCompressor def self.compress(str) RSmaz.compress(str) end def self.decompress(str)
RSmaz.decompress(str) end end class ZlibCompressor def self.compress(str) Zlib::Deflate.deflate(str) end def self.decompress(str) Zlib::Deflate.inflate(str) end end
Compressors = { 1 => RSmazCompressor, 2 => ZlibCompressor, }
key :compressor_id, Integer key :contents, String validates_inclusion_of :compressor_id, :within => Compressors.keys def contents value = read_attribute(:contents) compressor.decompress(value) end def compressor Compressors[compressor_id] end end
Partial Updates
site.atomic_update_attributes(attrs)
Unused Fields
Counts Where
Memory/Disk/Network
class SiteMode include Scam attr_accessor :name def password_required? id ==
2 end def item_cache? id == 1 end end
SiteMode.create({ :id => 1, :name => 'live' }) SiteMode.all #
find by id or string id pp SiteMode.find(2) pp SiteMode.find('2')
class Plan include Toy::Store store(:memory, {}) attribute(:title, String) attribute(:price, Integer)
end
class Asset plugin Joint attachment :file def page_cache(version=nil) page_cache_original page_cache_version(version)
end end
current_user.sites.map do |site| Site.get(site['id']) end
ids = current_user.sites.map do |site| site['id'] end Site.all(:_id.in => ids)
