FriendlyId VS Brakeman

On a side note, "Sqids ... is an open-source library that lets you generate YouTube-looking IDs from numbers.", "The main use of Sqids is purely visual."

If the purpose of it is to give a friendlier url / id, who not use something like friendly_id instead? (http://norman.github.io/friendly_id).

The url is readable and searchable through the history.

I would much rather prefer people using "www.website.com/channel/video/a-dog-walking" instead of "www.website.com/channel/video/3cXv8c".

Take a look at https://github.com/norman/friendly_id for a good gem to implement them.

Check out the friendly_id gem! I remember watching a GoRails video about it and thinking it looked super easy to implement.

SEO tools - meta-tags, sitemap_generator and friendly_id

friendly_id - We will use the friendly_id gem, which created slugs that we can map to a predetermined route. This is a method you can use throughout an application, not just with the User models.

FriendlyId is the “Swiss Army bulldozer” of slugging and permalink plugins for ActiveRecord. It allows you to create pretty URL’s and work with human-friendly strings as if they were numeric ids for ActiveRecord models. 5,500 stars by now

Brakeman - “Brakeman detects security vulnerabilities in Ruby on Rails applications via static analysis”

My team and I released Bearer a couple of weeks ago, a newer open and free alternative to Brakeman to check your code for security and privacy risks. In addition to Ruby/Rails, we also cover your JS/TS code, which allows you to use a single solution for your whole Rails application.

Brakeman is a static analysis security vulnerability scanner for Ruby on Rails applications. It finds potential security issues in Rails applications by examining the Ruby code. Brakeman helps find and fix security holes before deploying your Rails app.

brakeman is another useful Ruby gem that is a static analysis security vulnerability scanner for Ruby on Rails applications.

It’s assumed that you already have a Rails app and use Brakeman to keep your app secure and Rspec to run your test cases.

Another great lib for this is Brakeman, which can be installed in a very similar process and gives you even more detailed reports:

This is pretty easy to handle. In the case where a splatted array is the only argument to a method, we'll simply use the elements of the array as the argument list. (Check out the pull request here)
