Just a quick question to those of you using merb and sequel or datamapper. How do you setup your merb app? For example: merb -X off -c 5, then run mod_proxy_balancer or nginx to load balance between the 5 (or whatever #) of merb nodes? merb -X off -d, then simply use something like proxypass merb -c 5, keep the mutex lock and cluster it haproxy, swiftiply, evented mongrel...... What

I have a question about changeset 355 for "Initial support for controllers to be nested in modules and directories." I have probably overlooked something here, but it appears to me that something is missing to be able to route to those nested controllers. Looking in Merb::Dispatcher, it looks like the workflow goes like this. route = route_path(request_uri) route_path then calls

Hi, I check out the last codes from merb repository. And the startup information for production environment just like that: ====================================================== dev:/var/www/apps/upload_merb/current/log# /etc/init.d/merb_init start Merb started with these options: --- :template_ext: :html: :herb :js: :jerb :xml: :xerb :config: dist/conf/upload.conf :drb_server_port:

I am considering using merb to process file uploads. For the most part I''m going to keep it lean and mean. I would however like to access my active_record_session from my Rails app. Is this built into merb yet? Or is it OK to just add require ''action_controller/session/ active_record_store'' to merb_init.rb and then create my own session object

Hi All, I''ve come across the following problem with merb 0.5.3 (ruby 1.8.6 / Mac OS X Leopard). Basically, when I type ''merb'' or ''merb -i'' from within the app''s root, It starts, compiles the routes and then exits. Any ideas??? This is a brand spanking new merb app: josh at JDS-MacBook:~/Projects/schmerb$ merb Merb started with these

Merbists, I saw a note in the attachment_fu source code regarding supporting Merb[1] as well as a post on the Caboose forum[2]. Has anyone gotten Merb working with Rick Olson''s attachment_fu to handle uploads for a Rails app? I''ve hacked together something, but it''s not pretty. Besides fixing the TODO mentioned in the attachment_fu source code to support Merb

Hi all, I''m wondering about my sanity here. There''s probably something simple I overlooked. First off, I have close to zero experience with Merb. 1. I configured use_orm :activerecord in config/dependencies.rb; 2. I have a file named app/models/measurement.rb which looks like this: class Measurement < Observation end 3. I have another file named

I just committed some stuff in PluginManager to actually load the Gem- based plugins from the manifest. Merb::PluginManager.load_plugins is what goes in merb_init to load them all. For every plugin in the manifest, ''theplugin'' is required, and then we try and require ''theplugin/merb_init'' and, if that fails, we try ''plugin/init''

I converted the rails geokit plugin to a merb plugin today. Anyone interested in testing it out? It seems to be working great for me. If so, where should I put it? I don''t have a blog up or anything right now. Been meaning to do that, but haven''t had the time. -Dusty Doris

Trunk Issue: Because of the use of ''autoload'', template handlers other than Erubis are not loaded automatically (Haml, XMLBuilder). Either this should be fixed, or the documentation should be updated to instruct people how to use non-Erb template engines. Apparently the solution is to do something like this in merb_init.rb: ::Merb::AbstractController.register_engine

I didn''t quite see a direct answer to Matt''s question regarding running merb from SVN: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/merb-devel/2007-July/000132.html In a merb application, is there something comparable to having rails in the vendor/ folder of a rails app? Thanks, Duane Johnson (canadaduane)

Currently, Merb just shows a string on error: "500 Internal Server Error" I''ve added this to my merb_init.rb: if MERB_ENV == ''production'' module Merb def self.html_exception(e) File.read(DIST_ROOT + "/public/500.html") end end end http://nubyonrails.com/500.html Potentially a plugin could be written to log this to the database.

I have a question about the usage of Merb::Controller#url. When I have nested resources, requesting the new action works differently than I expected. I was wondering what the intended usage is. For example: Say I have r.resources :articles do |article| article.resources :article_attachments end irb(main):002:0> show_routes [:articles, "/articles"] [:article_attachments,

Hi all, I was just wondering if this is the intended behavior. Here is my setup: controller def index respond_to do |f| f.xml { render :xml => true } f.html { render :layout => :none } end end In my views I have a file for each type index.herb index.xerb The first request I send is cached and interferes with the other one. For example, if I send an xml request

I am going to be building a project and have been considering giving a go at merb for it. I don''t necessarily need a speed increase and rails would certainly serve my needs well. However, it just looks so clean, I have to try it out. I also don''t really use (know) all the extra rails stuff much, so I really just want activerecord and an MVC pattern. Perfect! So, one of my

Just wanted to get the opinion from merb users on active record alternatives that you are either using or watching. I''ve been reading a bit about sequel and data mapper. Both look pretty nice. Anyone actively using those yet? Any others? If anyone cares to provide their thoughts, I''d love to hear them. BTW - is this too off-topic for this list? If so, just let me know and

dumb question but what''s the view format in trunk? I have a simple router: Merb::Router.prepare do |r| # default route, usually you don''t want to change this r.default_routes # change this for your home page to be avaiable at / r.add ''/'', :controller => ''upload'', :action =>''new'' end I have a simple controller

All, How can I specify a load path in merb ? I have some classes in a lib directory that needs to be in the load path. Not sure how to accomplish that with merb....

Hi people, just thought I''d mumble out my thoughts on merb''s apps directory structure and config concepts and see what other people are feeling... the app dir: mvc/application is layed out as expected....maybe without the mailer by default (another discussion) the config dir: I really think that it''s confusing to have such a mixture of ways to configure some

Hello! What is the simplest way to make merb respond to the client sending Accept-Encoding: gzip? Just checking if it exists, otherwise I''ll implement it myself. Regards, Magnus
