Has any one successfully used Google Gears with RoR to enable ''offline'' mode for their web application? Please share your thoughts/ experiences with using Google Gears or Dojo offline with RoR to move your application offline.

Ok, Rails has been out for some time now. I''ve kept an eye on it pretty closely. I''ve heard Basecamp, Robot Coop, 43 Things, etc. are running on it. However, those have been the same apps people point to when the dreaded scalability question comes up. Are there any new web apps (large scale) in Rails or is it still the same old one? Something like on the scale of

Hi everyone, I''m building an app in RoR that apart from the normal web interface has a web service. This web service takes a parameter and uses that in a single database query, and returns the result in a simple XML format. This web service needs to be quite fast as it will be used on all pages of a quite big site with thousands of visitors every hour. I don''t think caching is

So, the question for you who are RoR Gurus: is RoR the way to go? Here''s the challenge... A community service site (application?) that includes: * Community Forum * Blog (kind of - more like an editoral comment section) * Weather Forecasts by locale * Road Conditions * real time weather data * Searchable, by category & locale, Business Directory * Live Camera feeds *

Hi all, I am currently not able to use search since it is disabled, so I will ask my question and hope I am not repeating a past question. I am looking into developing an app to run in Windows 2000/2003 Server environment. To install ROR on a server to run an app on Webrick do I need any extra steps beyond those needed to install on my development laptop (XP prof) ? The idea is to run the

Hello All, We are using Dovecot 1.1.3 to serve IMAP on a pair of clustered Postfix servers which share a fiber array via the GFS clustered filesystem. This all works very well for the most part, with the exception that certain operations are so inefficient on GFS that they generate significant I/O load and hurt performance. We are using the Maildir format on disk. We're also using

Hello all. I have just gotten the Agile development with ROR book and am evaluating whether ROR would be suitable for our needs. After reading some of the book I am thinking that ROR might not be able to handle the GUID datatype as primary keys in SQL server. Specifically primary keys in SQL server are created after the record is created and might not be available to the activerecord unless the

Fellow Railers, Is there anything, anywhere, that I can read that discusses overall RoR app design? I have the Agile RoR book, which is great for learning the details of RoR, but unfortunately doesn''t cover the overall issue of creating a large, complex RoR app. My staff and I are still in the process of getting up to speed on Ruby and RoR, but we also need to begin thinking about

There is a fresh/clean ROR app in the base directory / .htaccess, dispatch.cgi, dispatch.fcgi and dispatch.rb are all in / All dispatch files have been set to 755. ROR docs say to point doc root at /public/ and to put .htaccess, dispatch.cgi, dispatch.fcgi and dispatch.rb

Posting here is kind of a last resort: has anyone used Minimagick with Ruby on Rails, and gotten it working correctly? I hate posting a "bug" problem but I''m not if it''s *my* problem, or a problem with Imagemagick and RoR 1.0, which I just installed (upgraded from 0.13.1). Basically, when I try to run the most basic MM command in ROR: image =

Hello everyone, For some time I was studying Ruby on Rails, Active Record ideology and other thing related with RoR right now I still know a lot more about PHP than RoR. I am almost ready to start writing websites using RoR and get more experience. But I still have some questions before starting and I can''t start without answers. If you could simply answer some of them, would be great.

Hi All Just a few minutes back I came across a post about autotest/zentest and that post reignited the feeling I get when I look at RDoc, RoR documentation. The main thing that is lacking in RoR and to some extent Ruby''s RDoc is showing method names in HTML is not documentation. The arguments to method, exception/errors raised by method, return value and a usage example completes the

I saw this on a forum for MODx (a CMS which seem very good, built on standards, with clean XHTML/CSS, using PHP). "RoR is a killer application, but is either a crusher when it comes to memory usage or SQL usage. Even simple seeming things can kill a server if it''s not dedicated to the application. In addition, RoR is much more complex really than MODx if you''re not
