Fueling Curiosity, One Insight at a Time

In Rails, a partial is a reusable view template that allows you to encapsulate a portion of a view into a separate file. Partials are useful for organising and reusing code, especially when certain components or elements are repeated across multiple views within an application.

We can create a partial by creating a new file with a name that begins with an underscore (_). For example, _sidebar.html.erb or _header.html.erb.

And to render a partial within another view, use the render method with the name of the partial file (without the underscore) as an argument. For example, <%= render 'sidebar' %> will render the _sidebar.html.erb partial within the current view.

The rails routes command generates a comprehensive list of all routes defined in our Rails application, displaying the HTTP method, URL pattern, controller, and action associated with each route.

#rails

find your rails code smells by using a gem called flog . Flog finds the most tortured code in your codebase.

gem install flog

then run

flog app lib

it will print the flog score for the all files that has score more than or equal to 10. Generally we should make sure flog score should be less than 10.
Note: The more the flog score , the more pain the code is in.

In Ruby, instance variables are variables that belong to a specific instance of a class. They are prefixed with the @ symbol and are accessible within the instance methods of that class. Instance variables allow objects to maintain state and store information unique to each instance.
Example:

class Person
  def initialize(name, age)
    @name = name
    @age = age
  end

  def say_intro
    puts "Hello, my name is #{@name} and I am #{@age} years old"
  end
end

# Create a new instance of Person
person1 = Person.new("John", 18)

# Call the say_intro method
person1.say_intro

In this example, @name is an instance variable of the Person class, representing the name of each Person object created. The initialize method is a constructor that sets the value of @name when a new Person object is created. The say_intro method uses the instance variable @name to give the intro of the person with their name and age when called.

The docker stats command is a powerful tool provided by Docker to monitor the resource usage of running containers. It provides a real-time stream of various metrics such as CPU usage, memory usage, network I/O, block I/O, and the number of processes (PIDs) running inside each container. This command is particularly useful for performance analysis and ensuring that containers are running within their resource limits.
Example Explanation

docker stats db370fc6b784
CONTAINER ID   NAME       CPU %     MEM USAGE / LIMIT     MEM %     NET I/O          BLOCK I/O       PIDS
db370fc6b784   minikube   43.70%    1.243GiB / 2.148GiB   57.87%    35.4MB / 414MB

We can check the default value for a given column using postgres query like this:

SELECT column_name, column_default
FROM information_schema.columns
WHERE table_name = '<table_name_placeholder>' AND column_name = '<column_name_placeholder>';

Same can be used for constraints like is_nullable as following:

SELECT column_name, is_nullable
FROM information_schema.columns
WHERE table_name = '<table_name_placeholder>' AND column_name = '<column_name_placeholder>';

#database #postgres #query

active_record_doctor performs variety of health checks to identify and rectify common database issues like missing foreign key constraints, missing NON NULL constraints, missing presence validations, incorrect presence validations on boolean columns and many more.

The kubectl cordon NODE_NAME command is used in Kubernetes to mark a node as unschedulable, meaning no new pods will be scheduled onto that node. Existing pods on the node will continue to run unless explicitly terminated or moved.

Adding --debug can provide more insight if the error persists, showing exactly what values are being passed to each template.
