This approach works ok for one layer of `let`-like dependencies, but breaks down after that. E.g. what if `@kind` was also dependent on another variable that is lazy?

In case anyone is interested, I created a separate `lazy-bdd` interface that is the same as `bdd` but has RSpec-style `lazy` and `subject` macros: https://www.npmjs.com/packa...

Re: 10 Things You Can Do With EPF (That You Can't Easily Do With Ember Data)

Some of these points may not be true anymore. ED does use promises now, however last time I checked they were limited to simple operations. EPF bundles flushing arbitrary model graph changes into a single promise.

Getting paid is part of moonlighting.

Re: Bricolage - On Task Systems

Meant to say task system. I actually discovered the framework and switched to it after attempting to patch together a complex string of regular queues. It's pretty impressive, but is surprisingly low on the radar.

What are your thoughts on "workflow systems" (e.g. https://github.com/jmettrau... ). Seems like the next logical abstraction above your definition of a task system.

IANAL (and its always good to understand whatever employment agreements you've signed), but from what I've seen, what you mention above only applies to work done that is directly related to said company or done using their computers/equipment.

Re: Why We Don't Use Heroku

Gordon Hempton — Fri, 15 Mar 2013 14:12:38 -0000

Fair point, there is still some dev overhead. The goal here, however, would be to ultimately have basic Heroku-style configurations be extremely well-tread waters (such as how setting up authentication is with devise for example) that would not require significant dev time.

Instead of being afraid of other Type 0 projects (and re-writing the functionality yourself) you should collaborate and contribute to said project.

The view property is set, but not of the controller you would expect. The view will be set on the controller who's connectOutlet method is being called (e.g. applicationController as opposed to itemsController.)

Gotcha. Thanks for the info and the great project :).

That is really cool. Can you introduce entirely new syntax this way?

E.g. Ember's create method takes a an object expression rather than a block expression. I was thinking I was going to have to modify grammar.pegjs to support this.

Is there any chance you could submit a pull request to the example?

It is my impression that there might be some router api changes for the actual 1.0 release, but nothing that wouldn't be easily refactorable.

Re: Anatomy of an Ember.js App Part I Redux: Routing and Outlets

Gordon Hempton — Mon, 23 Jul 2012 14:22:48 -0000

Ember.Route is part of the upcoming 1.0 release.

Re: Anatomy of an Ember.js App Part I Redux: Routing and Outlets

Gordon Hempton — Sun, 22 Jul 2012 20:24:03 -0000

You need to use Ember.Route. Technically, you need an Ember.State subclass that includes the Ember.Routable mixin.

Sorry, don't have time to explore this in PhoneGap, I would make sure a bug is filed on GitHub

Re: Anatomy of an Ember.js App Part I Redux: Routing and Outlets

Gordon Hempton — Tue, 17 Jul 2012 12:41:52 -0000

lol what makes you think 0.9.4? I just updated ember to the very latest as of right now and the example still works. Handlebars needed to be included separately.

This will work with v1.0 when it is released. This is based on unreleased functionality.

Re: Anatomy of an Ember.js App Part I Redux: Routing and Outlets

Gordon Hempton — Tue, 17 Jul 2012 00:51:41 -0000

This is based off of the latest HEAD of the repo. I'm not certain this functionality has been officially released yet.

Thanks for the fix. Care to make a PR?

Gordon Hempton — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 01:24:47 -0000

It supports push state. I will think about a migration blog post.

It works for me, what browser are you using?

Re: Anatomy of an Ember.js App Part I Redux: Routing and Outlets

Gordon Hempton — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 01:24:09 -0000

As far as I know `App.router.send('items')` shouldn't work. The send method on statemanager/router just invokes an event. If there was a method called items defined that called router.transitionTo then it would change the state.

What do you mean by async issues? Does Angular.js have a run loop?

Re: The Top 10 Javascript MVC Frameworks Reviewed

Gordon Hempton — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 16:29:23 -0000

Thanks for the corrections. I will correct Angular.js to AngularJS shortly, however I need to dig deeper into Angular to verify that view composition is indeed a first-class citizen in the framework and not more of a helper mechanic.
