Almost Sinatra

Code Climate Build Status

"until programmers stop acting like obfuscation is morally hazardous,
they’re not artists, just kids who don’t want their food to touch." - _why

A Sinatra implementation in less than 10 lines. Dependencies: Tilt and Rack (like Sinatra). Only works on Ruby 1.9.

Features:

  • all template engines Sinatra supports
  • get/post/put/delete
  • before filters
  • configure/set/enable/disable/...
  • session/params
  • support for helpers
  • stand alone usage
  • inline templates
  • thread safe
  • works with Padrino

It is considered fully compatible with Sinatra. If your app does not run with Almost Sinatra, please open a Sinatra issue.

Installation

Copy the contents of almost_sinatra.rb into your app file (at the top), that way you also avoid running the wrong version by accident.

Try it

$ ruby example.rb
What Sinatra implementation should I use?
[R]eal Sinatra

Modular style

When pasting the Almost Sinatra code into your file, replace Application=$a with Base=$a (second line atm, but don't expect me to update the readme if I move stuff around).

Performance

It's just amazing. No code is faster than no code.

$ sloccount alomst_sinatra.rb
Total Physical Source Lines of Code (SLOC)                = 8
Development Effort Estimate, Person-Years (Person-Months) = 0.00 (0.02)
 (Basic COCOMO model, Person-Months = 2.4 * (KSLOC**1.05))
Schedule Estimate, Years (Months)                         = 0.04 (0.51)
 (Basic COCOMO model, Months = 2.5 * (person-months**0.38))
Estimated Average Number of Developers (Effort/Schedule)  = 0.03
Total Estimated Cost to Develop                           = $ 170
 (average salary = $56,286/year, overhead = 2.40).

$ sloccount ../sinatra
Total Physical Source Lines of Code (SLOC)                = 5,771
Development Effort Estimate, Person-Years (Person-Months) = 1.26 (15.12)
 (Basic COCOMO model, Person-Months = 2.4 * (KSLOC**1.05))
Schedule Estimate, Years (Months)                         = 0.58 (7.02)
 (Basic COCOMO model, Months = 2.5 * (person-months**0.38))
Estimated Average Number of Developers (Effort/Schedule)  = 2.15
Total Estimated Cost to Develop                           = $ 170,198
 (average salary = $56,286/year, overhead = 2.40).

As you can see Sinatra is 1000000% more expensive than Almost Sinatra!

Coding guidelines

  • keep code under ten lines, this includes require and whatnot

  • avoid spaces and newlines if possible

  • wrap at 200 characters to make it readable on a terminal

  • newlines may be used instead of ; to improve readability

  • use map instead of each, it's shorter

  • store constants in global variables to dry up your code (like $f = File)

  • if you have one loop, reuse it. instead of this:

      ['a','b'].map{|e|...}
      [Rack::Something].map{|e|...}
    

    do this:

      ['a','b',Rack::Something].map{|e|(e==e.to_s)?(...):(...)}
    

    Saves a line!

  • e=="#{e}" is shorter than e.is_a? String or String===e

  • use ->{} instead of proc or lambda (this is why it depends on 1.9)

  • add methods for class scope to $o and for instance scope to $a (or $o), see Scopes And Binding

  • don't include tests. tests just bloat the code base. just commit, the users will complain if you break anything.
