  • Vyki's night off!
  • Finally finished and merged add-shared-layout-view branch for #61!
    • Triple curls allowed only for layout template
    • Updated all onebox engine templates so they don't include duplicated elements anymore
    • Refactored View class
    • Decided that all onebox engines should each have a template -- including Example
  • Learned that you don't need to always immediately act on an object upon initialization
    • The context: using #to_html on new View object within a method
    • Why: Might use up time/power on this action when it won't even be necessary, like if you timeout
  • Learned about #tap
  • SO CLOSE to releasing v1.1.0...
  • HOMEWORK: Keep on making oneboxes for v1.1.0...again

  • Continued working on on issue #61
    • Read up on Mustache.js vs Handlebars.js
    • No one has implemented a Ruby parser for Handlebars
    • Using mustache for onebox templates, as it has better support/integration for Ruby
    • Having a bit of trouble with _layout, using partials in layout template, and doesn't escape characters
    • Might be able to get around this with }, but need to consider potential security issues
  • Learned new if syntax if x then positive else negative
  • Discussed making our own template gem, perhaps named after something other than after facial hair
  • Talked a bit about looking at performance testing as a good intro to Rails (we've really just been working in Ruby)
  • Discussed Hate Driven Development
  • Learned about redcarpet, upskirt, pantyshot.... would recommend against Googling....
  • HOMEWORK: Keep on making oneboxes for v1.1.0...again
