A lot has been made recently about the need to freeze your gems for production deployment on a shared server so your application can depend on it''s own gem version instead of being subjected to whatever gem is installed on the server, but does this rule of thumb come with an exception? Architecture dependent gems such as RMagick, Ferret and Unicode have dependencies that cannot be

Hello-- I''m investigating the API facet of my site and wanted to ask a couple questions: 1. The Agile book describes adding an API using the web_services generator which adds stuff to app/api. In Rails 1.1, Jamis added some wants.xml stuff to the controller code which also allows API generation. Which is better to use now? Do they mutually exclude one another? 2. In some cases, I

I''ve been writing a gem to implement and extend common controller functionality so that Rails can be used with Javascript frameworks like AngularJS (which we are using), Ember.js, etc. in such a way that the user doesn''t have to tweak a a bunch of rails g controller boilerplate code to provide services for use in these frameworks that in turn would require various changes to

Hello, I need to consume a web service of an App called RedMine created with Rails, in order to have a sort of "separate" interface (not the same as the app) for one of the departments (that interact with the app) to interact with it and generate some different reports based on the same data. I don''t know much about either (ETL and Rest), all I know is that ETL seems to

I''m working on a Rails app that needs to expose a RESTful web service. I''m curious to know some of the best practices as it relates to RESTful API design. Let''s say I have a set of related objects on the server side. I''ll use the venerable subscribers, subscriptions and magazines example to lay it out. class Subscriber < AR has_many :subscriptions

Hi, I would like to turn some of our simulation codes out to pasture and string some of them together by draping them in web services. I''m looking for a RESTful Camping tutorial to get started ... pointers appreciated. Some simple example applications: airfoil force calculator: feed it an airfoil geometry, an angle of attack, and a Mach number, and it returns the lift, drag, and

When I define :db to be a different server than either :web or :app, and run "rake deploy". Switchtower will abort with an Net::SSH::AuthenticationFailed error. The version of Switchtower I''m using is 1.0.0 and the deploy task is the default supplied with Switchtowe. However, I dont have any problem when :db is changed to the same as :web and :app. -------------- next part

im thinking about extracting this into a plugin, but it currently relies a couple gems and another rails plugin. is there a dependency management feature with ./script/plugin? i never could get it to check anything out of SVN let alone install dependent stuff... -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I can''t believe I''m back again with another rest question. I did go through the peepcode podcast. I thought though you can have multiple nested resources, is that not true ?

Hey, everyone. I'm sure this thread will generate some email! Some people are working on a super-easy to use converter for people to be able to convert videos to Theora for the upcoming Get Video on Wikipedia push: http://videoonwikipedia.org/ (Note that this isn't being pushed yet, and is pre-launch quality!) For the converter one thing we'd like to be able to provide is a set

I''ve been deploying local applications into production (both linux boxes) with Switchtower, and I''ve had no problems, until now. I just tried doing a "rake deploy", and I get this error: ============ [update_code] exception while rolling back: NameError, uninitialized constant OSSL rake aborted! no such file to load -- openssl ============ Now, on both the production

I''ve had a couple ideas for Ruby on Rails shirt graphics for a little while now: 1. "Fuck You" superimposed over, oh, probably a Ruby gem. Or Rails of some sort. 2. "Ruby on Rails" superimposed over rails of cocaine. Maybe also with a graphic of a crazed looking coder. Anybody got graphics? Or can make them? Heh! Joe -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hey everyone, I did a quick hack in go about a month ago and gluster-rest was the outcome. You can find it at https://github.com/kshlm/gluster-rest The program is basically a wrapper around the gluster cli. It translates incoming requests to the correct gluster cli command, executes the cli command with the '--xml' parameter to get xml output and returns the xml document. For eg, For

I''m trying to deploy a rails app with no success. I can execute: ''rake remote_exec ACTION=setup'' but when I try to execute : ''rake deploy'' I got this error: loading configuration c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/switchtower-0.10.0 /lib/switchtower/recipes/standard.rb loading configuration ./config/deploy.rb executing task deploy transaction: start

I always kind of liked this title (the title of Davids super Rails presentation), but then I saw this quote today: "The pursuit of happiness is a most ridiculous phrase; if you pursue happiness you''ll never find it." by C.P Snow I''d have to agree with this quote. It''s the same as love... go looking for it, and you''ll never find it. Soooo... David,
