Plugins by Coda Hale

• Responsible markup

  Tests for valid markup, unobtrusive Javascript, doctypes, content types, and much more!

• Dynamic session exp

  Serves up session cookies with expiration dates set relative to the current time.

• USPS countries

  Replaces Rails’ default countries list with the list of countries to which the United States Postal Service can send mail.

• Rails environments

  A simple plugin providing a clean interface for determining which environment Rails is currently running. (e.g., Rails.development?)

• Dollars and Cents

  Stores prices as integers in your database, but access them as floats.

• Simple HTTP Auth

  A quick, clean way of adding HTTP authorization to your Rails application. No need for complicated backends, gigantic user models, or other unneeded complexity. Just you, a password prompt, and whether or not someone should be allowed in.

• XHTML Content Type

  xhtml_content_type allows you to set the default MIME type for rendered .rhtml views to application/xhtml+xml if the client supports it, and only falling back to text/html for older clients.

• HTTP Caching

  Allows your Rails application to take advantage of the caching mechanisms built into HTTP 1.1 (i.e., 304 Not Modified return code).

• Rails rcov

  Find your tests' blind spots easily with Mauricio Fernandez's rcov code coverage tool and this set of dynamic Rake tasks.
