= About Ackbar Ackbar is an adapter for ActiveRecord (the Rails ORM layer) to the KirbyBase pure-ruby plain-text DBMS. Because KirbyBase does not support SQL, joins or transactions, this is not a 100% fit. There are some changes to the ActiveRecord interface (see below), but it may still be useful in some cases....

Sorry for the long Subject line, but I couldn''t figure out what else to call it. :-) Just a quick announcement to tell you that I have worked through Chapters 6 and 7 so far of "Agile Web Development with Rails", using Ackbar/KirbyBase to develop the Depot app instead of MySQL. You can find my blog about it at: http://houseonfire.wordpress.com For those who don''t know, I am the developer of KirbyBase (http://netpromi.com/kirbybase_ruby.html), a small, pure-Ruby DBMS that keeps its data in plain-text file...

Has anyone come across any interesting ways to make rails apps easily distributable to run on a local machine. I''d love to be able to "bundle" my rails app into a single file that would contain a simple webserver, database and my rails app which a non-experienced user could then download install on their machine, go to a web browser and run the app locally. I envision it

I''ve found vague mentions of various attempts at creating an ActiveRecord adapter for the KirbyBase pure Ruby DBMS, but nothing which looks like it''s actually working. Anyone know of such an adapter that is functional and available? b

I''ve been reading up on Berkeley DB and I''ve been refelcting on the Rails philosophy and it just seemed to me like the two should go together hand in glove. Rails seeks to abstract the programer from squirrely database coding which is great. My only problem is that you''re still left with a large component, namely the databsase server (MySQL, PostgreSQL..etc) which

Hi, i''m just starting to develop an active_record db adapter for an in-memory oo database (purple). This will obviously require quite some work in the Base class of active_record and so I''m wondering if anyone has done this already? After some searching I found the ackbar adapter for kirbybase db. And while I sure will be lifing code from there, I''d really imagine the fit to be closer (that is anything but the find_by_sql really). So if anyone can give some helpful starting points, I''d be grateful. Also general tips and tricks are welcome. Than...

I need some real help on this, really stuck how are the coefficients for ur.ers(y, type = c("DF-GLS", "P-test"), model = c("constant", "trend"), lag.max = 0) The max lag is set at zero, so the regression should simply be Diff(zt) = a*z(t-1) where a is the value i'm trying to find and z(t)'s are the detrended values. but through performing
