Latest website: Propryo.com

January 6, 12 //

Propryo is a slight twist of the French word “proprio”, which means “home owner”. My sister is trying to explore a few business ideas and we built together this little website where home owners advertise their properties for sale. Propryo is nothing close to a trading platform, it’s only there to advertise properties in a simple way.

The latest addition to the properties for sale is the Villa in Calvi which is a great addition as a featured property!

For the techies, it should work on mobile browsers as well as desktops, having used a little bit of fluid and responsive design and built as a sinatra pure ruby application hosted on heroku, using yaml configuration files and photos hosted on flickr.

Any feedback appreciated!

Rewriter

I’ve been thinking in the past to create my own little applications for my own organisation and as a tool suite. The first one to come out is (surprisingly) not a todo app, but a URL shortener/bookmark manager. Check it out: Rewriter.

Percent w and other ruby percent syntax

If you can’t find what you want to know about ruby percent notations ( %w, %q, %r, %x), then have a look over there:

Jim has obviously some other information sources than Google (where trying to search for %w is like trying to find your way in a dense steam room!)

The way to remember things is easy though:

  • %w is for White-spaced delimited arrays
  • %q works like Quotes
  • %r wraps up nicely Regular expressions
  • %x simply eXecutes system calls

Api token access with authlogic and login

November 4, 09 //

Creating an API for one project at work, one odbrhw tasks was to implement a token based authentication for some resources, but the client specifically requested not to have to handle cookies.
Also, it was requested for the user to still have to login with it’s own login and password, rather than with a permanent token, like a permanent API key.
The solution I implemented used the excellent authlogic capabilities with the single_access_token, although used slighlty differently from it’s original purpose. (more…)
