overriding spree javascripts

to overwrite spree javascripts, such as spree.js.coffee.erb,

first , enable assets path in config/application.rb

add:
config.assets.paths << "#{Rails.root}/assets"

Next, copy the assets file to the same directory path as the assets on spree.
eg.
spree / core / app / assets / javascripts / spree.js.coffee.erb
to:
assets/javascripts/spree.js.coffee.erb

Then run this on server, if its in production mode:
bundle exec rake tmp:clear

then restart the server,
thin restart, or what ever server you are using. you may stop and start.


if you need to add more file, you may edit:
vendor/assets/javascripts/spree/frontend (or backend) / all.js

hope it helps :)

Marionette CompositeView appendHTML changed to attachHtml

another latest marionette change

Marionette compositeView changed itemView to childView!

it was changed, and nobody was notified,
not that i could google until i found its not working...

terrible community update

undefined method ... path due to polymorphic_url

i came across this non meaningful error,
as it turn out to be a mis named params

example: mispelled params[:nam] for params[:name]

ActiveRecord::ConnectionTimeoutError (could not obtain a database connection within 5.000 seconds)

it turn out there could be 2 reasons,

1. rails connection pool have reached and there might be zombie connection
2. mysql max_connections / max_user_connections may have reached

in most cases, its the first possibility.
ensure that you have set the connection pool to a much higher value,

to handle enough concurrent users at the same time

production:

  adapter: mysql2

  pool: 100

2nd issue is due to zombie connection which may lead filling up pool with undead connections.

add a config/initializers/db_connections.rb

with these code:

-----------------

Rails.application.config.after_initialize do

  ActiveRecord::Base.connection_pool.disconnect!

  ActiveSupport.on_load(:active_record) do

    config = ActiveRecord::Base.configurations[Rails.env] ||

                Rails.application.config.database_configuration[Rails.env]

    config['reaping_frequency'] = ENV['DB_REAP_FREQ'] || 10 # seconds

    #config['pool']              = ENV['DB_POOL']      || ENV['MAX_THREADS'] || 5

    puts "pool size: "+config['pool'].to_s

    ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(config)

  end

end

-----------------

these should hopefully handle undead issue for db connections.

another fix is possible to fix network connection bug when writing to a disconnected connection.

------------------

response.stream.write data

#workaround hang stream due to client dc halfway: https://gist.github.com/njakobsen/6257887

sleep 0.0001

-------------------

to check number of active connections for a database,
run rails dbconsole# (makesure you have set RAILS_ENV to the correct environment)
#and:

SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST;

Circular dependency detected while autoloading constant

When face upon this issue,
its caused by naming controller or calling model name incorrectly.

possible issue are naming are case sensitive.
example:
#model
class Oi


end

But calling
OI.find #this lead to circular dependency error
