* Tighten up the AV::Base constructorAaron Patterson2019-01-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The AV::Base constructor was too complicated, and this commit tightens up the parameters it will take. At runtime, AV::Base is most commonly constructed here: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/94d54fa4ab641a0ddeb173409cb41cc5becc02a9/actionview/lib/action_view/rendering.rb#L72-L74 This provides an AV::Renderer instance, a hash of assignments, and a controller instance. Since this is the common case for construction, we should remove logic from the constructor that handles other cases. This commit introduces special constructors for those other cases. Interestingly, most code paths that construct AV::Base "strangely" are tests.
* Use string lengths instead of regexp to extract pathMatthew Draper2018-08-231-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | The regexp was introduced in 186ac4cdaa911a9af659a29f2179a19b99dea13b, and looks cosmetic. While they should be functionally identical in theory, in practice, case insensitive (but preserving) filesystems can give results that are differently-cased from the pattern we supplied. I don't know how to force the filesystem to do the surprising thing, even when running in an environment that _could_, so no new test.

| | | | | | All indentation was normalized by rubocop auto-correct at 80e66cc4d90bf8c15d1a5f6e3152e90147f00772. But comments was still kept absolute position. This commit aligns comments with method definitions for consistency.

* Implement helpers proxy in controller instance levelRafael Mendonça França2016-05-051-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is a common pattern in the Rails community that when people want to :xa use any kind of helper that is defined inside app/helpers they includes the helper module inside the controller like: module UserHelper def my_user_helper # ... end end class UsersController < ApplicationController include UserHelper def index render inline: my_user_helper end end This has problem because the helper can't access anything that is defined in the view level context class. Also all public methods of the helper become available in the controller what can lead to undesirable methods being routed and behaving as actions. Also if you helper depends on other helpers or even Action View helpers you need to include each one of these dependencies in your controller otherwise your helper is not going to work. We already have a helpers proxy at controller class level but that proxy doesn't have access to the instance variables defined in the controller. With this new instance level helper proxy users can reuse helpers in the controller without having to include the modules and with access to instance variables defined in the controller. class UsersController < ApplicationController def index render inline: helpers.my_user_helper end end

* Freeze string literals when not mutated.schneems2015-07-191-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I wrote a utility that helps find areas where you could optimize your program using a frozen string instead of a string literal, it's called [let_it_go](https://github.com/schneems/let_it_go). After going through the output and adding `.freeze` I was able to eliminate the creation of 1,114 string objects on EVERY request to [codetriage](codetriage.com). How does this impact execution? To look at memory: ```ruby require 'get_process_mem' mem = GetProcessMem.new GC.start GC.disable 1_114.times { " " } before = mem.mb after = mem.mb GC.enable puts "Diff: #{after - before} mb" ``` Creating 1,114 string objects results in `Diff: 0.03125 mb` of RAM allocated on every request. Or 1mb every 32 requests. To look at raw speed: ```ruby require 'benchmark/ips' number_of_objects_reduced = 1_114 Benchmark.ips do |x| x.report("freeze") { number_of_objects_reduced.times { " ".freeze } } x.report("no-freeze") { number_of_objects_reduced.times { " " } } end ``` We get the results ``` Calculating ------------------------------------- freeze 1.428k i/100ms no-freeze 609.000 i/100ms ------------------------------------------------- freeze 14.363k (± 8.5%) i/s - 71.400k no-freeze 6.084k (± 8.1%) i/s - 30.450k ``` Now we can do some maths: ```ruby ips = 6_226k # iterations / 1 second call_time_before = 1.0 / ips # seconds per iteration ips = 15_254 # iterations / 1 second call_time_after = 1.0 / ips # seconds per iteration diff = call_time_before - call_time_after number_of_objects_reduced * diff * 100 # => 0.4530373333993266 miliseconds saved per request ``` So we're shaving off 1 second of execution time for every 220 requests. Is this going to be an insane speed boost to any Rails app: nope. Should we merge it: yep. p.s. If you know of a method call that doesn't modify a string input such as [String#gsub](https://github.com/schneems/let_it_go/blob/b0e2da69f0cca87ab581022baa43291cdf48638c/lib/let_it_go/core_ext/string.rb#L37) please [give me a pull request to the appropriate file](https://github.com/schneems/let_it_go/blob/b0e2da69f0cca87ab581022baa43291cdf48638c/lib/let_it_go/core_ext/string.rb#L37), or open an issue in LetItGo so we can track and freeze more strings. Keep those strings Frozen ![](https://www.dropbox.com/s/z4dj9fdsv213r4v/let-it-go.gif?dl=1)

* Fix sorting of helpers from different pathsPiotr Sarnacki2012-05-281-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When more than one directory for helpers is provided to a controller, it should preserver the order of directories. Given 2 paths: MyController.helpers_paths = ["dir1/helpers", "dir2/helpers"] helpers from dir1 should be loaded first. Before this commit, all helpers were mixed and then sorted alphabetically, which essentially would require to rename helpers to get desired order. This is a problem especially for engines, where you would like to be able to predict accurately which engine helpers will load first. (closes #6496)
