hi list - should it be possible to use autotest to continuously run specs for a non-rails project? when i execute autotest in the base directory of my project, it complains that it cannot load rspec_autotest, however looking at rspec_autotest[1] and rspec_rails_autotest.rb, it appears as though both are geared towards rails (perhaps even rspec on rails). cheers, jean-pierre [1]

Josh Knowles http://joshknowles.com/ just let me know that ZenTest Autotest 3.50 now handles your RSpec specs. http://blog.zenspider.com/archives/2007/04/zentest_version_350_has_been_released.html That''s a great news. Josh also shared with me a quick hack to make autotest work with only the RSpec plugin installed. Add the following into your ~/.autotest file

Is the rspec_autotest plugin mentioned here, http://blog.nicksieger.com/articles/2006/11/15/rspec-autotest-now-a-rails-plugin the accepted method of auto testing specs? It''s an old article, and after grabbing the plugin, and giving it a run, it fails with: $ rake spec:autotest:rails trunk/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails/dsl/behaviour/rails...

Is there some way to remove the database hit when running rake rspec:models ? I''d like to mock all of my objects (or at least remove all reliance on fixtures and the database itself) - both for speed and because static fixtures are brittle. Best Regards, Scott Taylor

Coming from PHP, I''m used to seeing things like Zend Encoder that can take PHP and pseudo-compile it, obscuring the source (useful in the event you want to sell a product written in said language). I haven''t found a direct equivalent with Ruby (though if you know of one I''d like to hear about it), but it occurs to me that JRuby might be used to do something similar.

Hi, I am trying to generate a PDF from within a worker using PDF::Writer. In my controller I use render_to_string to create the pdf file however from what I understand render_to_string can only be used from a controller. Does anybody have any suggestions how I might be able to replicate this functionality in a worker? -- thanks, Felix -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment

Has anyone attempted to run Rails inside of JRuby? Is that even possible? Aside from the performance implications, is it a bad idea? I''m thinking that it might be useful in very rare cases where a Ruby/Rails - equivalent of a Java solution may not exist yet. Any thoughts? Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello - I wanted to announce a very large web application that was built with Ruby on Rails and runs the site Gusto! http://www.gusto.com/ . It was deployed yesterday in a little over 4 months of development with 3 developers. The origins of the site were being developed in Java using Hibernate + Tapestry and the decision was made to port the 100+ table model to Rails to see if there were

Hey, this is great to see this in trunk. It answers some questions I''ve been having about what is the best way to use JSON on the client side; it seems like the :callback approach is becoming the standard. A related question -- Prototype has this support for an "X-JSON" header that allows pure JSON to be sent in a response header and it gets evalled and passed to ajax
