I think it’s better to rely on config/init.rb that file should be on every merb project, merb.thor doesn’t, in fact my “library” project doesn’t have it.
rinari-merb (minami? why not just rinari-merb? what if someone create a rinari version for sinatra? sinasi?)
it doesn’t load automatically when you visit a project file or the project directory (with dired). So I should call minami-minor-mode
jump: it doesn’t really jump, but seems to look for the correct paths, at least that is what Messages buffer says:
(“app/controllers/\1.rb” “asset”) Searching home/jorge/dev/jorgecalas/library/app/models/app/controllers … (“app/controllers/\1.rb” “assets”) (“app/controllers/\1.rb” “asset”) Searching home/jorge/dev/jorgecalas/library/app/models/app/controllers … [2 times]
When I’m on the project directory (dired) it finds files correctly, right now I tried minami-find-model, minami-find-controller.
minami-find-rspec:
In the current merb you don’t don’t have spec/controllers or spec/views (although you can, of course) but spec/requests is encourage. So app/controllers/assets.rb should map spec/requests/assets_spec.rb
Hi Eric, As I understand, we are talking here about rinari-find-by-context function, which is used to open file by current context. For example if I am in <%= render :partial => “something_anything” %>, it should open _something_anything.html.erb partial. This functionality is still left in rhtml mode (although it is broken there), but I think it should be moved to rinari again.
Follow any of the following within two lines (up or down)
- stylesheet
- javascript
- link_to
- link_to_remote
- submit_tag
- render
When finding a view from a controller if there is no method name, then select from the related directory.
more generally…
if rinari-find-* is called with a prefix argument then just run the default find at the end
or even better…
implemented if no file is found with a find pair, then keep moving.

Hi,
I’ve never encountered that situation before. It sounds like when going from a controller to a view splitting the controller name on :: and then joining the parts as directories would handle this situation. And then vise-versa going from a view to a controller. I’ll try to implement this and let you know when it’s working.
Thanks for the suggestion – Eric

jumping between views, and launching servers and consoles etc… all
seem to work, the only hurdle now is a rinari-rake issue
rinari-rake however fails with: apply: Spawning child process: invalid argument. Haven’t had the chance to look into and debug this further. I’m currently using cygwin as my shell within emacs so not sure if this causing some issues.

since we often want to check the availability of ido for completing reads it would probably be worth writing a macro to do this.
also, it may be worthwhile breaking utility functions out into a separate file…
look at info:elisp:Minor Mode Conventions
this could be done through a hook that runs every time a .rb or .rhtml file is loaded to check if it is inside of a rails project (using the `rails-root’ function or a .emacs-project file) and then to load rinari-minor-mode appropriately
done with hooks on find-file and dired-mode
should follow emacs key bindings
see info:elisp:Key Binding Conventions
- Sequences consisting of `C-c’ followed by a control character or a digit are reserved for major modes.
- Sequences consisting of `C-c’ followed by `{‘, `}’, `<’, `>’, `:’ or `;’ are also reserved for major modes.
- Sequences consisting of `C-c’ followed by any other punctuation character are allocated for minor modes. Using them in a major mode is not absolutely prohibited, but if you do that, the major mode binding may be shadowed from time to time by minor modes.
given the above, it seems like an ergonomic option would be to start all our rinari key-bindings with \C-c-’ with \C-c-‘-’ running something similar to \C-c\C-c in org-mode
so something like search_incrementally will match search if incrementally isn’t available
also, push the “def “s into the variable in toggle.el to try to keep it language-agnostic
I know you can do this with rgrep, but It would be nice to easily call it on the whole project (yml/rhtml/rb files), and it would help guide emacs noobs to the powers of rgrep
Danger here is cluttering up Rinari with thin wrappers around existing emacs tools…
rinari-rgrep
something to speed up the cycle of
- code
- test
- review errors
this should probably cash out into two different functions…
maybe instead of using the current buffer-file change rails-name-components-name so it returns the last component as well, then change the controller usage of this function to drop the last list element. That way this can be used to get model names when calling which-function from models/model.rb files.
Also, if you don’t have a test written for this particular method this could insert the def…end for the test into the appropriate file, and drop the point there. Nothing wrong with a little bit of soft paternalism.
this would use the information in /conf/databases.yaml to log into the application’s database using sql-* functions from sql.el as appropriate
it turns out most of the bulk of rails-script.el was supporting running ruby processes with output going to compilation buffers. So rails-script.el is now removed (with two short functions in rinari.el rinari-console and rinari-server), also ruby-compilation has been added.
redefine some keys buffers to make it easier to navigate.
n will go to the next line p will go to the previous line
C-n next error line C-p previous error line
M-n top of the next group of errors M-p top of the previous group of errors previous-group
so if you just saw an error on a web page, you can see that error in three key commands
- X-b server
p2) M-p
- enter
a function which either…
- goes to the error closest to point in the current compilation mode buffer
- goes to the most recent error in the server, console, or test buffer
See this discussion below from the emacs-on-rails list…

Hmm… now that I think about it more, I’m not sure it’s a good idea to make it really convenient to go around digging through server logs to find errors. The right way to go about solving that kind of problem is to write a test for it. If you make it easier to fix the problem without writing a test, really what that amounts to is short-term benefit but long-term problems since your fix isn’t guaranteed to be caught by the test suite.
So I would discourage integration with the dev mongrel logs. The bonus side of that is if we only have to help jump to errors/failures in test output it becomes a lot easier. There are in my mind three common ways of running tests:
- In an emacs shell, whether that’s eshell, M-x shell, or ansi-term
- With compile-mode, as per the ruby-test-file function in rinari
- In a shell outside Emacs
So if we check console output it will work in the first two cases but not in the last. I think it’s best to always check the test logs, since problems are pretty much guaranteed to be found in there. This also solves the integration test problem; when you’re running those and you get an exception, the only console output you see is that you expected a 200 response but you got a 500, which is totally useless. In those cases you have to check the logs anyway.
We could probably base this functionality on compilation mode. It’s already built to go over output looking for something that looks like a stack trace and provide jumping to the source of the error:
http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/CompilationMode

Yeah, the second one sounds a lot harder.
add a quick command to view the current page in a web-browser
This is less a single runner, and more a single function from which any rails/script can be executed associating the scripts with appropriate buffers and modes.
Currently this
- runs console from a buffer in comint-mode
- runs server dumping output to a compilation-minor-mode buffer
- provides completion for generate/destroy
- runs all other scripts using shell-command-to-string dumping the output to a message
currently there is no indication that the attempt to start the server has failed
now has a sentinel, see elisp:(describe-function ‘set-process-sentinel)
revert to the .emacs-project version of find-file-in-project so that the actual find-file-in-project.el file remains unchanged. Then using defadvice wrap the ffip function to find the project base using (rails-root) as well as the .emacs-project file.
some global prefix for all of the function names, probably either “rails” or “rinari”
going for rails for now
- easier to remember
- easy enough to change later
switching to rinari
while I’m doing this I’m going to rename rails-scripts.rl to rails-script.el (minor)
easy enough
LocalWords: elsif elseif keybinding
not sure this is possible, at least not easily
