Hi everyone, A few weeks ago we released the screencast of our control panel (http://blog.webfaction.com/control-panel-demo) which showed, amongst other things, how to setup a default Rails site in a few clicks. Now we''d like to make another screencast showing how to setup a real-world Rails application on our servers. So we''re looking for a Rails guru to make that screencast

I''m trying to get some answers as to why I (my company actually) would go with RoR over TurboGears. The developer staff is fluent in both Ruby and Python so that is not an issue. Rails is well into its release cycle whereas Turbogears won''t be at 1.0 until later this week. They both do essentially the same thing and they both have cool features unique to themselves

My personal showdown: Using Ruby on Rails: I was pretty productive right away. Documentation though for the Rails APIs and stuff is not as good as I''m use to in Perl (particulariy CPAN). No being critical, just saying the Rails documentation left me hanging more than once and guessing as to what I was doing wrong. Production deployment is a bit much. I''ve found using

Does anyone know if there exists a Task Scheduler module in Ruby on Rails like in TurboGears below? http://www.turbogears.org/preview/docs/scheduler.html I''m using Ruby on Rails for a multiplayer online game and I want to set checks at regular intervals to see if users are still logged in etc. Thanks in advance -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello my friends Today at FISL (International Forum of Free Software), I''ve had the opportunity to watch a Turbogears presentation. The framework, itself is really weak in comparison to rails, but... When the guy who was making the presentation show the NEW 0.9 TurboGears Toolbox I''ve though: - Isn''t something like that in Rails? Well, after a little googleing

I have installed a rails app called balder that organizes images. my main problem is that i can''t seem to upoload the image sthrough balder. balder uses imagemagick and rmagick when i use the console and do this: irb(main):003:0> require ''RMagick'' => nil I don''t think rmagick is

Hi, A friend just introduced me to R today and I think it is really nice after browsing its web site. I'm eager to cook up some web-based interface to use R at work for more platform-independent access. I plan to implement it in a Python-based framework such as TurboGears or Django on either FreeBSD or Linux platform. My question is: how do i maintain stateful computations across

Hello, (Rails 4, Ruby 2) I am trying to deploy my first rails app in a production environment, but cannot get the assets to load. The site is hosted on Webfaction, they advise to create a "static app" to serve the assets which I have done. But I don''t understand how my rails app then knows about the static app. At the moment, in production inside the head it prints out...

We tackled in-place edit in the latest screencast in our free Learning Rails course: www.BuildingWebApps.com/learningrails/14 We were surprised to find that the in-place edit plugin in the official Rails repository still hasn''t been updated to be functional with Rails 2, and that it doesn''t support several of the options in the Scriptaculous code that it wraps. We worked

Hey Everyone, Topfunky (Geoffry) has created a great PeepCode screencast on using httperf to performance measure your web applications: http://nubyonrails.topfunky.com/articles/2007/03/05/peepcode-page-caching-and-httperf http://peepcode.com/products/benchmarking-with-httperf Topfunky put a ton of work into this and really got it right.

But when I get non-model related params back from the form, is there a quick and easy way to extract those into local varialbes? i.e. if params has keys fname and lname, to have them extracted into local variables called fname and lname without resorting to: fname =

The first administrative console screencast is now available at: http://screencasts.visualjquery.com/demo1/ I''ve posted a bunch about the Admin Console, but it''s essentially an automated scaffold that works as an engine. The screencast is a quick overview of the minor things you''ll need to do in models, environment.rb, and others, as well as ::drumroll:: a demo of

Hi all, On MacOS, we have SnapZ Pro to RECORD screencasts. Is there a comfortable - *1 - screencast Editor, like CamTasia on Windows? At the very minimum I want to cut parts of the movies, insert "slides" and superpose drawings (frames, arrows, ..) or text? Alain *1 : not FinalCut, obviously. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
