Rails - Mar 2006 - Poll: Which distro do you use for Rails/Ruby development?

Good afternoon,
I''ve two quick questions for the Ruby/Rails community.

1) Do you use Linux for Ruby or Rails development?

2) If you use Linux, which distro do you normally use to develop?

Thank you for your input. :-)

Windows, although as soon as I scrape some extra cash together I plan on 
getting a Mac.

Never thought I''d hear myself saying that!

CentOS for my hosting.

hehe... Trust me... You will love using TextMate and iTerm for
development. It absolutely rocks.

But for jokes... Here is a chart of what to expect.

But in reality. Switching to Mac those 2 years ago was the best thing
that ever happened to me. I love not having to spend 10% of my
personal time just keeping Windows working and virus free.

I had a small working app with three models and one controller. I 
decided to add a table_name_prefix to the tables because I am 
planning to deploy to a shared hosting environment where multiple 
rails apps will use the same database.

I added this to config/environment.rb:

   ActiveRecord::Base.table_name_prefix = ''teemss2_''

I deleted the existing tables and the file db/schema.rb and ran rake 
migrate again. Doing rake

I now have the same set of tables in the db with a prefix on their 
names BUT when I try and execute a controller

database name: teemss2_development
table_name_prefix: teemss2_
table name: activities

I would think that Active Record should be trying to load:

   teemss2_development.teemss2_activities

Instead it is trying to load:

   teemss2_development.activities

which doesn''t exist.

I''m sure I shouldn''t have to refer to the actual
table_name_prefix in
my controllers. In fact I don''t see how I can.

I''ve been looking at the rails source for clues and I''ll try a
simple
smaple app from scratch using table_name_prefix to see if the 
controllers work and what if any differences I can find.

Here the stack trace:

Instead here
Mysql::Error: #42S02Table ''teemss2_development.activities''

I use CentOS as a development platform with RadRails running on a 
Windows XP work station.

I have also installed a full ruby (1.8.4 RC1) + rails (1.1) that I run 
under cygwin (because cygwin gives me a real shell under Windows) on my 
laptop. I didn''t tried with the cygwin version of ruby but I should...

hehe... Even though MacOS is much simpler in use than Windows, it is a
bit of a shock moving into it. You keep looking for the start button.

If you wait till the 1st of june you can get ubuntu dapper. Comes with a  
new gedit that has snippets support and a plugin engine(big potential ie  
svn). And with xgl/compiz you''ll see all the effects that make osx  
pretty like it is.

Develop on Windows and Ubuntu.

Test on Gentoo (i.e. my latest "presumed good" version is on Gentoo)

Production is on Gentoo (for things I host myself) and whatever
Dreamhost uses (for things that aren''t)

1. Sometimes.  I use both Linux and Windows 2000.

2. I use Debian 3.1 (sarge) because I like to develop on the same distro 
as the production server.  Too bad rails 1.1 breaks ''rake
freeze_edge''
for Debian 3.1 shared hosts (because Debian 3.1 still uses svn 1.1.4 
which doesn''t support the --limit option).

In the future, I''ll probably buy a Mac and develop on that.  And deploy
on Ubuntu 7.x because I think their server version will become VERY 
compelling over the next 12 months for current Debian users.

Yep,
Started using Fedora Core 5 last week.  Really easy to set up.
Radrails 0.6.1 with Rails 1.1, Ruby 1.8.4

Also develop on WindowsXP.

Sorry, don''t have a Mac.  My son won''t let me borrow his :)

We develop on mac and Windows (me on the mac). Going back to the mac 
after 10 year absense is the best thing I''ve done for myself in a LONG 
time.

Deploy (currently) to Windows, with svn running on Suse. Looking into 
deploying on x serve (mac os and hardware).

same and same. IMO the biggest problem for using linux for development, 
is the lack of a web browser that is both decent and fast. Konqueror has 
a tendency to lock up for 10 seconds after loading a page with heavy 
javascript, and easily runs into the hundreds of MB''s of RAM. Firefox
is
slow all around (although with heavy JS its faster than Konqi) and has 
similar RAM problems. Opera''s CSS/AJAX stuff is screwed in general, and
it requires a multilib setup to use if youre on 64bit. IE6 in WINE is 
probably the fastest, but for whatever reason Maxton/Slimbrowser won''t 
run..

Ruby-Gtk2MozEmbed is cool though. especially the HTML Editor with live 
preview. im pretty sick of continually paging between emacs and 
shitty-browser-of-choice and hitting reload and am about to just glue 
all of this together with mongrel and sqlite.. refreshing the page every 
time you edit a single character.. i guess its not as good as developing 
in Squeak but pretty close

1) Yes and No.  I use Linux and FreeBSD dependent on the customer
2) In order of preference Gentoo Linux (the easiest to get rails playing 
nicely with apache in my experience), Ubuntu, Debian

Hi,

I have switched from gentoo to ubuntu quite some time ago (i think
around Warty) and i like it very much! However, getting Rails to run
gave me 2 days of headache... Find out why:

http://www.rubyrailways.com/?p=6

But, after this lesson learned i would still recommend linux, and the
distro... well, gentoo, debian, or ubuntu. I am very curious about
Rubuntu - i am not sure about its release date (or is it released
already?) - that might by a very interesting alternative as well.

Cheers,
Peter

FWIW you could''ve also done
sudo apt-get install libmysql-ruby
instead of fussing with the gem

1. Yes
2. Debian / Kubuntu

I also use OS X, but typically run my KDE apps via fink, so it''s still
Linux to me.

Heh, do you think i did not try that? Maybe it was not clear from the
sentence

''Under Ubuntu, the MySQL-Ruby binding was outdated''

I just upgraded to dapper an hour before i begun with the rails install,
so i assume my repositories were as up-to-date as possible. Yet i got a
message during the scaffold generation, saying that i should create the
DB table for my model (what i did of course) and the rails book
suggested that this is an outdated mysql-ruby connector problem. Because
of this i begun the gem Via-Dolorosa ;-)

Cheers,
Peter
