• [feature] Allow dynamic segment in API redirect action by @alis-khadka in https://github.com/restarone/violet_rails/pull/918

Allow dynamic segment in API redirect action

This feature allows Ruby evaluation in the redirect action so you can do conditional redirects and other fanciness:

How it works

The implicit return value of the evaluated statement should be a valid path in the application. As illustrated above, you can use an absolute path (like: '/', or a Rails route helper like dashboard_path)

🪄 Dynamic segments in API Actions 🦾

addresses: https://github.com/restarone/violet_rails/issues/653 & https://github.com/restarone/violet_rails/issues/652

upgrade path: https://github.com/restarone/violet_rails/issues/836

This change adds dynamic segments in Email and Web Request Actions in the API Namespace / API Actions sub-systems.

Feature Showcase

Dynamic Emails

Given a simple form like this:

an email action is defined:

the system will generate the following email message:

Dynamic HTTP requests

Now you have dynamic segments in the request URL

View evaluated work

Every API Action is tracked by Violet Rails, and you can see what the system did after it evaluated your code.

The above action resulted in the following email:

The same evaluation rules apply to HTTP actions, so you can see exactly what was sent to external systems -- for example:

What's Changed

Violet is now iOS ready! 📱 🍎 🍏

As of this release every app/website built with Violet Rails can be turned into an iOS app with just 1 line of code 🪄 ✨

Automatic translation between your web app 🌎 and native app 📱

Your Violet Rails app will now transition seamlessly between web (left) and iOS (right)

Making your Violet Rails app iOS aware

replace {{ cms:snippet navbar }} and {{ cms:snippet footer }} with {{cms:helper render_smart_navbar}} and {{cms:helper render_smart_footer}}. These new functions will intelligently render navbar/footer as {{ cms:snippet navbar }} and {{ cms:snippet footer }} for web clients. We don't want to show web navigation on native clients (eg: iOS)

how the app looks

native navigation

web navbar is not shown, instead a system tray is shown at the bottom with relevant navigation buttons

Blog

Forum

iOS client repository

As usual, our iOS app is open source 💯 👍
