Part 1ruby

Ruby is a dynamic, scripting, object-oriented language...

Programming languages must feel natural to programmers.

Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto

hello = Hello world!puts hello

Hello world

Try ruby in a browser!

Control brave knight using ruby

Why ruby is so cool?

#1: puts Yes if Work.starts_with? W

#2: population = 12_000_000

#3: misterious_number.between?(10, 20)

Like a natural language

def really? trueend

Aesthetic

1: numbers = []2: for i in [1,2,3,4]3: numbers [1,4,9,16]

Elegant - NON ruby-way solution

numbers = [1,2,3,4].map { |i| i ** 2 }

numbers # => [1,4,9,16]

Elegant - ruby-way solution

Everything is an object!

42

42.times { puts Awesome }

Fixnum object

:001 > 1.class => Fixnum :002 > (2.2).class => Float :003 > [].class => Array :004 > "Politechnika Gdaska".class => String :005 > nil.class => NilClass :006 > {}.class => Hash

Output from irb

Classes, objects01: class School02: attr_reader :name03: 04: def initialize(name)05: @name = name06: end07:08: def hello09: puts Hello #{name}10: end11: end

school = School.new(PG)school.hello

# => Hello PG

- high performance / lower level stuff- multi-threading- graphics / data analysis

Avoid ruby in case of

Ruby is great at...

Metaprogramming

Example with send01: class Rubyist02: def face(mood)03: send(mood)04: end05: 06: private07: 08: def happy09: :)10: end11:12: def sad13: :(14: end15: end

dev = Rubyist.new

dev.face(:happy)# => :)

dev.face(:sad)# => :(

Handle missing methods

1: class Rubyist2: def happy; :) end3: def sad; :( end4: 5: def method_missing(name)6: :?7: end8: end

dev = Rubyist.new

dev.happy# => :)

dev.sad# => :(

dev.excited# => :?

dev.worried# => :?

Define own methods

01: class Rubyist02: FACES = {03: happy: :),04: sad: :(,05: excited: ;D,06: angry: :[07: }08: 09: FACES.each do |key, value|10: define_method(key) { value }11: end12: end

dev = Rubyist.new

dev.happy# => :)

dev.sad# => :(

dev.angry# => :[

dev.excited# => ;D

Everything changes

1: class String2: def with_smile3: self + :)4: end5: end

Sad string.with_smile# => Sad string :)

With great power comes great responsibility.Unkle Ben

Write tests!

Example rspecdescribe Rubyist do subject { described_class.new }

describe #happy do it returns happy face expect(subject.happy).to eq :) end endend

Part 2ruby on rails

Rails is a web application development framework

Powerful web applications that formerly might have taken weeks or months to develop can be produced in

a matter of days.Tim OReilly

Websites powered by Rails

isitrails.com

Convention over Configuration

Structure

controllers

modelsviews

routes.rb, database.yml

Gemfile

MVC

controller

model view

browser

DB

routes

web server

Lets prepare some code

$ rails generate model Post title:string content:text invoke active_record create db/migrate/20150509232514_create_posts.rb create app/models/post.rb invoke rspec create spec/models/post_spec.rb invoke factory_girl create spec/factories/posts.rb

Magic spells

01: class CreatePosts < ActiveRecord::Migration02: def change03: create_table :posts do |t|04: t.string :title05: t.text :content06: 07: t.timestamps08: end09: end10: end

Migration

MVC in action

http://localhost:3000/

127.0.0.1 - GET /index.html HTTP/1.0" 200 2326

get /, to: welcome#index

class WelcomeController < ApplicationController def index @posts = Post.all endend

class Post < ActiveRecord::Baseend

class Post < ActiveRecord::Baseend

class WelcomeController < ApplicationController def index @posts = Post.all endend

ERB

%ul - @posts do |post| %li =post.title

HAML

http://localhost:3000/

This is almost the end...
