I discovered Markaby recently, and am loving it! I''m generating scaffolds, then converting them to Markaby ''.mab'' files. It got me wondering... Has anyone written a plugin to generate scaffolds in Markaby, yet?? That would be truly awesome if there was on out there already. -- Best Regards, -Larry "Work, work, work...there is no satisfactory

I want to use ruby on rails entirely as an xml-rpc web service server. I.e. it will only be called by clients making xml-rpc requests. What I want to to is be able to use something like the session[] functionality for storing session information. However, storing information in the session[] construct requires that the client be a web browser with cookies enabled. Does anyone know of a

Hey all, I''m casually shopping around for a host that will give me a virtual server running Debian. It would host some of my rails projects and probably some svn. Does anyone know of a good host? Anecdotes about satisfaction would be nice. Thanks, Bryan -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

It seems like half the people on this list are writing a book on Ruby or Rails. For all the hints I''ve seen strewn across the list I have yet to see one that will focus on test-driven development for either Ruby or for Rails. If anyone is looking for a topic, please consider this. I''ve been trying to wrap my brain around the TDD process, but its way of thinking is

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

Sorry to have to post this again - it was probably under the wrong subject and went unnoticed. Is there a standard for providing user documentation for methods that I expose through we services? The default documentation (method names and return types) that appears when the user visits http://localhost:3000/backend/invoke is concise and correct, but a bit terse. How can I give my users a little

Seeing as how the new Basecamp API reflects a similar use of RoR that I have been working on I''m curious as to what we can expect to be extracted from there in 0.13? Was the API written as an ActionWebService or just as a set of controllers? Any generic AR xml parsing/output methods that we may see in 0.13? Any reason you decided to do everything with HTTP Get instead of utilizing

Hi all, I''m asking this question from the standpoint of a developer with almost 10 years experience with Microsoft technologies, mostly doing server side component and database work. So, I''m not very familiar with the java world. Can anyon tell me how/if java development can complement Ruby on Rails development? I''m not interested in how java can duplicate Rails

I recently started using migrations to create the schema of a Rails project I am working on. The database I am using for this project is MySQL. The initial migration creates the table and also includes a number of execute statements (to do some things like setting primary keys, autoincrement on some columns and other messy voodoo). Running "rake migrate" creates the database with no

Hi all. I am using PostgreSQL in my current project and I have couple of questions on this topic. Previously I have used 3 databases for project. i.e. megaproject_development, megaproject_test and megaproject_development. But I don''t like this variant because of ''rake dump_db_structure'' writes a lot of PostgreSQL specific data for structure file (operators, functions,

Hi, I''d like to set up CIA. So I added the plugin to my app, went to my subversion server, added the post commit, added a build directory. I checked out the code in the build directory on the svn server. However, running rake on it fails, because the test database is empty (i.e. no tables, so fixtures don''t load). What''s the solution here?

I''m having trouble figuring out how to drive the design of a class. I''m hoping I can get a hint or two from the more experienced BDDers on this list. I''m writing an adapter class that sits between a 3rd party library and my business logic. I would like to extract some information from objects available from the 3rd party lib and covert them into ruby objects.
