I'm looking at the Compass-Sinatra starter file on GitHub. Is there a way to set the output_style for an scss file in Sinatra? Ideally I would like to set the style to :expanded when in development.
I think I'm having trouble understanding how sass(:"stylesheets/#{params[:name]}", Compass.sass_engine_options ) works and where I can set those options.
I found that adding the output_style setting to the compass.config file works for changing the output_style. It can either go in the if defined?(Sinatra) block or in the configuration block at the bottom of the compass.config file.
# compass-sinatra-starter/config/compass.config
if defined?(Sinatra)
# This is the configuration to use when running within sinatra
project_path = Sinatra::Application.root
environment = :development
output_style = :expanded # This is where you can set the output_style
else
# this is the configuration to use when running within the compass command line tool.
css_dir = File.join 'static', 'stylesheets'
relative_assets = true
environment = :production
end
# Or if you wanted to have the output_style set for all environments(?)
# This is common configuration
output_style = :compressed
sass_dir = File.join 'views', 'stylesheets'
images_dir = File.join 'static', 'images'
http_path = "/"
http_images_path = "/images"
http_stylesheets_path = "/stylesheets"
Note: stop/start the server if you change the settings if you don't see the change.
For example, I have a styles.scss file in views/stylesheets/styles.scss then if I go to http://localhost:4567/stylesheets/styles.css I'll get the .scss file compiled in the browser to .css. Changing the output_style, start/stop the server the .css output_style changes. I don't know if using reloader would work, but it might avoid the stop/start?
I found a couple of other good resources.
Andrew Stewart has a blog post and a GitHub template
Originally I was trying to learn about media queries in Sass(scss) with Sinatra and found a great video Ben Schwarz posted, but it doesn't go into the nitty gritty of setting up. It's more about the media query. Ben also has the source on GitHub.
But it seems like AssetPack is the best way to go for serving assets.

Currently, I have a resources/application.conf file which has the following keys:
development {
server = www.myapp.com
aws_key = my_aws_key
aws_secret = my_aws_secret
}
I would like to remove my aws_key and aws_secret from the file.
I was thinking of creating another file called resources/credentials.conf and storing my personal authentications there.
credentials {
aws_key = my_aws_key
aws_secret = my_aws_secret
}
and then include it some way in my application.conf or merge that config to the Config object in addition to application.conf.
credentials.conf would be git ignored. A sample file would be checked in credentials-sample.conf which each developer would change according to his own credentials and rename the sample file to credentials.conf
I tried different variation of include like
include "credentials"
include "credentials.conf"
include "./credentials.conf"
include file("./credentials.conf")
and so on.
I know I can pass it via system variables but I would like to try it like mentioned above. If you know of a better way, please let me know.
Typesafe Config provide the way to fallback from one configuration to another. You can try the ConfigFactory.Load() to load different config and use withFallback to line them up in your designated order. Such as:
ConfigFactory.Load("credentials.conf") withFallback ConfigFactory.Load("application.conf")
Inside your conf file, add
include "another_file.conf"
ie: https://github.com/cicco94/scala-akka-slick-demo/blob/master/src/main/resources/application.conf
The IPYTHON documentation implies there is a way to modify the config file to include an additional path for templates.
Please advise. I have a template file which I want to use, with extension *.tpl which I do not want to have to move around to the local directory of where I do my work.
Any tips? I've searched everywhere and can't find this. It seems to only search the local directory where I am running the ipython nbconvert test.ipynb --to slides --template output_toggle_html.
Thanks.
In the ipython_nbconvert_config.py file located , you can enter the line c.TemplateExporter.template_path = ['.'] which will do the same as the default behavior, however you can add to this list. For example, the code below adds $IPYTHONDIR/nbextensions/templates and will search for *.tpl files in those locations, in the order in which they are provided in the list.
from os import environ
IPYTHONDIR = environ["IPYTHONDIR"]
template_rel_path = '/nbextensions/templates'
template_path = IPYTHONDIR + template_rel_path
c.TemplateExporter.template_path = [
'.',
template_path
]
TL;DR
Does PHP 5.4 built-in webserver have any bug or restriction about relative paths? Or does it need to be properly (and additionally) configured?
When I used to programming actively I had a system working under URI routing using these lines in a .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule !\.(js|ico|gif|jpg|png|css)$ index.php [L]
The FrontController received the Request, find the proper route from given URI in a SQLITE database and the Dispatcher call the the Action Controller.
It worked very nicely with Apache. Today, several months later I decided to run my Test Application with PHP 5.4 built-in webserver.
First thing I noticed, obviously, .htaccess don't work so I used code file instead:
<?php
if( preg_match( '/\.(?:png|jpg|jpeg|gif)$/', $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] ) ) {
return false;
}
include __DIR__ . '/index.php';
And started the webserver like this:
php.exe -c "php.ini" -S "localhost:8080" "path\to\testfolder\routing.php"
So far, so good. Everything my application need to bootstrap could be accomplished by modifying the include_path like this:
set_include_path(
'.' . PATH_SEPARATOR . realpath( '../common/next' )
);
Being next the core folder of all modules inside a folder for with everything common to all applications I have. And it doesn't need any further explanation for this purpose.
None of the AutoLoader techniques I've ever saw was able to autoload themselves, so the only class manually required is my Autoloader. But after running the Test Application I received an error because my AutoLoader could not be found. o.O
I always was very suspicious about realpath() so I decided to change it with the full and absolute path of this next directory and it worked. It shouldn't be needed to do as I did, but it worked.
My autoloader was loaded and successfully registered by spl_autoload_register(). For the reference, this is the autoloading function (only the Closure, of course):
function( $classname ) {
$classname = stream_resolve_include_path(
str_replace( '\\', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, $classname ) . '.php'
);
if( $classname !== FALSE ) {
include $classname;
}
};
However, resources located whithin index.php path, like the MVC classes, could not be found. So I did something else I also should not be doing and added the working directory to the include_path. And again, manually, without rely on realpath():
set_include_path(
'.' . PATH_SEPARATOR . 'path/to/common/next'
. PATH_SEPARATOR . 'path/to/htdocs/testfolder/'
);
And it worked again... Almost! >.<
The most of Applications I can create with this system works quite well with my Standard Router, based on SQLITE databases. And to make things even easier this Router looks for a predefined SQLITE file within the working directory.
Of course, I also provide a way to change this default entry just in case and because of this I check if this file exist and trigger an error if it doesn't.
And this is the specific error I'm seeing. The checking routine is like this:
if( ! file_exists( $this -> options -> dbPath ) ) {
throw RouterException::connectionFailure(
'Routes Database File %s doesn\'t exist in Data Directory',
array( $this -> options -> dbPath )
);
}
The dbPath entry, if not changed, uses a constant value Data/Routes.sqlite, relatively to working directory.
If, again, again, I set the absolute path manually, everything (really) works, the the Request flow reached the Action Controllers successfully.
What's going on?
This a bug in PHP's built-in web server that is still not fixed, as of PHP version 5.6.30.
In short, the web server does not redirect to www.foo.com/bar/ if www.foo./bar was requested and happens to be a directory. The client being server www.foo.com/bar, assumes it is a file (because of the missing slash at the end), so all subsequent relative links will be fetched relative to www.foo.com/instead of www.foo.com/bar/.
A bug ticket was opened back in 2013 but was mistakenly set to a status of "Not a Bug".
I'm experiencing a similar issue in 2017, so I left a comment on the bug ticket.
Edit : Just noticed that #jens-a-koch opened the ticket I linked to. I was not awar of his comment on the original question.
I'm writing a classic style sinatra app, and trying to package my scss files with sinatra-assetpack, but it's not working.
This is my main web file:
require 'rubygems'
require 'sinatra'
require 'haml'
require 'sass'
require 'compass'
require 'sinatra/assetpack'
set :root, File.dirname(__FILE__)
set :environment, ENV["RACK_ENV"] || "development"
configure do
Compass.configuration do |config|
config.project_path = File.dirname(__FILE__)
config.sass_dir = 'views/stylesheets'
end
set :haml, { :format => :html5 }
set :scss, Compass.sass_engine_options
assets {
serve '/javascripts', from: 'public/javascripts'
serve '/stylesheets', from: '/stylesheets'
# The second parameter defines where the compressed version will be served.
# (Note: that parameter is optional, AssetPack will figure it out.)
js :lib, '/javascripts/script.js', [
'/javascripts/lib/modernizr-2.5.3.js',
'/javascripts/lib/underscore-min.js',
'/javascripts/lib/slides.min.jquery.js',
'/javascripts/lib/jquery.scrollTo-1.4.2-min.js'
]
css :app, '/stylesheets/screen.css', [
'/stylesheets/screen.css',
'/fonts/meta.css'
]
js_compression :jsmin
css_compression :sass
}
end
I'm using this in my layout file:
= css :app, :media => 'screen'
The screen.scss file is stored in /views/stylesheets/screen.scss, and the meta.css is in /public/fonts/meta.css. Are the references to screen.css incorrect? Should they be served from a different directory?
Also I had this in my main web file
get '/stylesheets/screen.css' do
content_type 'text/css', :charset => 'utf-8'
scss :'stylesheets/screen'
end
Putting it in or removing it didn't fix anything - is this route necessary?
You should not keep your get '/stylesheets/screen.css' route anymore.
I also noticed you have compass in your Gemfile / app files. Sinatra AssetPack notes that it is not compatible with compass. You can include sinatra/support though to use it such as their example application here.
Change your serve '/stylesheets', from: '/stylesheets' statement to serve '/stylesheets', from: '/views/stylesheets' to reflect where you would like to serve the sass files from.
After all that, you should be able to serve your javascript and scss like below:
= css :app, :media => 'screen'
= js :lib
I have a requirement to use powershell to configure IIS7.5 on WebApplications that have not yet had code deployed (possibly at all, possibly old/broken web.configs exist) to the file system. I would like to be able to do this all at the APPHOST level. (Note at the bottom about use of Powershell > AppCmd).
I can SET all the values properly, however, being somewhat diligent, I like to also validate the values were set properly by retrieving them after setting.
Here's the scenario:
I can set this value using AppCmd so the setting is applied at the APPHOST level using the /Commit:APPHOST flag. However, I havent found a way to READ the values exclusively at the APPHOST level.
Setting the Code is successful:
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe set config "webSiteName/webAppName" -section:system.webServer/security/authentication/anonymousAuthentication /enabled:"True" /commit:apphost
However, I cant find a way to read the values using AppCmd (or Powershell):
Running the following AppCmd returns an error due to the broken pre-existing web.config in the folder (the specific error is unimportant, as it is reading the WebApp's web.config instead of the ApplicationHost.config/APPHOST):
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe list config "MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST/webSiteName/webAppName" -section:system.webServer/security/authentication/anonymousAuthentication
ERROR ( message:Configuration error
Filename: \\?\c:\inetpub\wwwroot\webSiteName\webAppName\web.config
Line Number: 254
Description: The configuration section 'system.runtime.caching' cannot be read because it is missing a section declaration
. )
Note: I would prefer to do this all in Powershell instead of using AppCmd, so if anyone has the syntax for modifying the APPHOST settings for anonymousAuthentication section of a WebApplication, that lives under a Website, from inside Powershell (Get-WebConfiguration seems to only use the WebApp web.config), that would be totally awesome and much appreciated!
Here's how to do this in PowerShell:
[Reflection.Assembly]::Load(
"Microsoft.Web.Administration, Version=7.0.0.0,
Culture=Neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35") > $null
$serverManager = New-Object Microsoft.Web.Administration.ServerManager
$config = $serverManager.GetApplicationHostConfiguration()
$anonymousAuthenticationSection = $config.GetSection("system.webServer/security/authentication/anonymousAuthentication", "simpleasp.net")
Write-Host "Current value: " $anonymousAuthenticationSection["enabled"]
# Now set new value
$anonymousAuthenticationSection["enabled"] = $true
$serverManager.CommitChanges()
