similar to: Is there a non sql active_record db adapter out there ?

Hi All, = What''s New This is a bug fix release. Jamey Cribbs (author of KirbyBase) has run through Active Web Development with Rails, building the Depot sample app on top of Akbar/KirbyBase. A few issues uncovered there were fixed / enhanced in this release. See the CHANGELOG for full details. You can read all about his exercise, starting at

= 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. = URIs Ackbar: http://ackbar.rubyforge.org KirbyBase:

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

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

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

Instead of using numeric I created the field "unit_price" as PostgreSQL type money. Now when I try and add a row I get the following. How do I override AR default behaviour to cast numeric post data to money, or am I forced to only support database types that active_record knows about? RuntimeError: ERROR C42804 Mcolumn "unit_price" is of type money but expression is of

Hi. I''ve not seen anything on this so thought I''d put forward the idea and see if it has any merit, or is already in practice. When using migrations with config.active_record.schema_format = :ruby (ruby as the canonical DB definition) it seems there would be no need to query the database itself to determine its structure; it would already be known. This might have some good

I just checked out the latest sqlserver_adapter.rb from the SVN repository, and it seems to work fine. -----Original Message----- From: rails-bounces-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org [mailto:rails-bounces-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org] On Behalf Of Neville Burnell Sent: Thursday, 24 March 2005 2:25 PM To:

I see some possible issues with the SQL that is being generated by the firebird adapter. Every SQL is being generated on the fly by concatenating strings. Can someone please explain why the SQL is being generated the way it is? I cannot use this in real life for a couple of reasons: 1. This introduces a security hole because a user, accidentally or deliberately, could potentially submit a

Anybody thought abt an adapter for this? Obviously not in the purview of ActiveRecord but could have a similar interface.. i.e. CRUD + find [xpath] - Ruby binding does exist. Just curious. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all, I''m working on a database adapter for the Ingres database and I''m having a problem with the Rails tests. The first SQL statement from each of the four SQL files (ingres.sql, etc), is sent to the database with this line first: -- statement #0 and extra blank lines. So the database is getting "sql" that looks like this: " -- statement #0 DROP TABLE

I am writing a library module to handle certain StatementInvalid type AR exceptions. I wish to catch the case where the db adapter in use is not supported by the module. I would like to test this situation and have only a vague idea as to how to proceed. My exception handling method selects the parsing method based on the adapter_name value. def hll_ar_exception(exception) raise

OK, I''m once again talking about my future almighty isbn loader. I have written quite all the ruby code I need and, using a basic test, checked it works. Now, I''me having issues running the code.

I tried to use named parameters in my SQL query , using find_by_sql Order.find_by_sql ([select * from orders where amount > ? and quantity > ?", [ @amount, @quantity ] works;.. but Order.find_by_sql ([select * from orders where amount > :amount and quantity > :quantity ", [ :amount => @amt, :quantity => @qty ] is not working a I wrong or should I use a plain select
