Rails plugin development using WebMock

Posted on January 6, 2011 by Jimmi Westerberg

I had a few problems getting WebMock working with my rails 3 setup.

When I used webmock in my rails 3 app, the tests ran and all was nice.
But when I wanted to create a plugin using the exact same code as I just tested inside my rails app, I went into some problems.

To start, I created a new plugin using

rails generate plugin myclient

The files were generated and all seemed fine.

I hope you enjoy it

Snap Open forked!

Posted on September 1, 2009 by Jimmi Westerberg

I have been using Snap open in gEdit for quite some time and I love it. It’s fast and easy to use, plus it saves me from using my mouse. However, the “fast” part seems to loose it’s grounds, when you start using it in larger projects. I even started to have problems on java projects.

After some investigation, I found out that it also looked in my target folder. The .snap_open_ignore file helped a lot here though. But still the search was slow and some times the search window stalled for longer periods.
