Learning AI's Ruby Rails platform

It has been a while since I have touched Ruby Rails. There was a time when I was fervently building a rails app any chance I got.

Work has taken on a development platform using Ruby Rails. There are differences that I will have to learn because they are not using the latest versions or thedefault technologies such as puma and dbmigrations.

SDK query Library

AI recommends that all queries are done through the SDK query library. This will help prevent things from making if there are changes to the model.

Universal Event Type

Universal Event type is a standard used to indicate a status of an exam. Each location might have different statuses specific to their location which is why the universal event type is useful. AI requires that statuses are tracked through the Universal Event Type for distribution.

Filters

Wow, it has been a long time. I have forgotton what filters do exactly. according to the ruby rails docs, Filters are methods that are run before, after or around a controller action. before filters are most commonly used with authentication/authorization.
