turbo-rails VS Webpacker

The install notes here link to an issue specific to webpacker. Try that and see if it works?

True, in theory it is. A lot of it is coded in libraries like turbo-rails, though. And these are Rails-specific. But I've seen it being used in some Laravel projects, also I used it with Hanami.

Check out https://github.com/hotwired/turbo-rails/blob/main/app/models/turbo/streams/tag_builder.rb

So apart from the pretty obvious question of "why on earth would you want to do this?", I think there's a misunderstanding here of the intended use case of turbo streams. You have a page, and then some state changes on the server and you want to update the page to reflect that. Incrementing a variable doesn't really qualify as a state change, but perhaps a Product changing from "not good" to "good" would be an event worth broadcasting, which you could do using the Broadcastable concern in turbo-rails.

Not mentioned in the article, but it's nice that turbo-rails recently gained the ability to pass ViewComponent objects directly to turbo stream helpers. https://github.com/hotwired/turbo-rails/pull/433

Release notes: https://github.com/hotwired/turbo-rails/releases/tag/v1.4.0

turbo/streams_channel.rb - a way to link a turbo stream with an ActionCable channel.

The readme seems to give a pretty good overview of turbo: https://github.com/hotwired/turbo-rails

Using Webpacker in Rails provides several advantages over the traditional asset pipeline. First, Webpacker uses JavaScript modules, which allows for better code organization and improved code reusability. Second, it offers modern frontend build tools, such as Babel and PostCSS, for transforming and compiling assets. Third, it provides faster build times and faster runtime performance through code splitting and lazy loading. Fourth, it offers better integration with JavaScript frameworks such as React, Vue, and Angular. Overall, Webpacker offers a more flexible and modern asset management solution for Rails applications. And while Webpacker is being retired, this initiative is to consolidate our code accordingly before moving our bundler to another solution.

This article is replace Webpacker with Simpacker and webpack.

in ruby ​​on rails 7 what is the best way to properly install Angular because I can't find any documentation about it. The only tutorial that exists uses webpacker (https://github.com/rails/webpacker) but unfortunately it is no longer supported and no longer up to date in terms of security.

From the webpacker gem:

Check this: https://github.com/rails/webpacker/issues/2825

instead of using webpacker you should move to esbuild or importmap. Webpacker has been retired a few months ago (cf https://github.com/rails/webpacker) There are videos explained how to set this up (e.g. for importmap https://learnetto.com/tutorials/how-to-use-react-with-rails-7

Took me 2 days to find this bug report: https://github.com/rails/webpacker/issues/3188 (thanks again tagliala)

But it's there in the webpacker README now, if anyone hasn't seen it. https://github.com/rails/webpacker
