Finding about installed restful_authentication version
Hi, I am using restful_authentication in one of my Rails app, the problem is I can''t find anywhere what is the current version of my plugin. I didn''t use subversion to get the plugin I simply downloaded it and installed it by hand. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I''m not sure why you''re asking...but here''s a semi-useless answer. The short of it? You''ve got to diff what you have with what''s out there (or know where you got it). Unfortunately it doesn''t look like the plugin has a version or license file in it by default. So it depends on how you installed it. Recently it moved to the ubiquitous github, there are several ''new'' versions up there. So if you either used git or downloaded directly from there, you''ve got one of those ''recent'' versions. If however you did what I did and ran script/plugin install <URL> then you probably got the latest svn version up on the technoweenie site.You can figure out what version this is by going over to <URL> with a browser and recording the version info (although the repository contains "everything" so the version info changes even when there are no changes to restful_authentication itself). I think most everyone is just maintaining their own copy which is why git is going to be more useful than svn (sure wish it''d been mercurial instead...oh well, nothing quite like having 3 version control systems installed). -Dale On May 25, 2:32 pm, Fernando Perez <rails-mailing-l...-ARtvInVfO7ksV2N9l4h3zg@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Hi, > > I am using restful_authentication in one of my Rails app, the problem is > I can''t find anywhere what is the current version of my plugin.

Re: Finding about installed restful_authentication version
Well it is a shame Rick didn''t add a release date in the README file or a CHANGELOG file, that would save me some time. And yeah, I prefer Mercurial too. Anyway I already have subversion for Textmate Bundles, so I can also install git... -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I''ve been hacking at the restful_authentication plugin, and rick merged some of the changes into the current master at http://github.com/technoweenie/restful-authentication/tree/master You''re best to consider this a beta. It includes some minor security tweaks and a hodgepodge of added stories and specs but hasn''t been widely tested. The "classic" branch (the one that you''re most likely to see tutorials, etc on) is at http://github.com/technoweenie/restful-authentication/commits/classic You can see the dates of all the changes in the git log: after you''ve done the git clone, just do "git log" from the base of your checkout. Any dates in the CHANGELOG would be a laborious incomplete non-DRY version of that. If you''d like to help test or hack at a the newer version please hit me up at github or this email address. flip On May 26, 3:46 pm, Fernando Perez <rails-mailing-l...-ARtvInVfO7ksV2N9l4h3zg@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Well it is a shame Rick didn''t add a release date in the README file or > a CHANGELOG file, that would save me some time. > > And yeah, I prefer Mercurial too.
