Suppose, for a moment, that I have a Camping app. It looks at something, like an RSS feed of upcoming events, and displays them if they meet a specified criterion. I look at the index page, it fetches the feed items and then displays them. Yay. Maybe it also writes them to a database. Which is great, so long as I keep looking at the page every so often. But what do I do while I''m

Hello Campers I''m not sure this is the right list to ask but: I''m using the junebug wiki (which is written in camping) for my own personal wiki. I''d like it to behave as a proper daemon, so it will start up at boot, get stopped properly at shutdown, keep a pid file in /var/run etc. This requires a little messing with the wiki script junebug makes in the wiki

Hi, I made some experiments with the sample blog application, my index.fcgi file contains the following: require ''camping/fastcgi'' Camping::Models::Base.establish_connection( :adapter => ''sqlite3'', :database => ''database/camping.db'' ) Camping::FastCGI.serve(''blog.rb'') Without ScriptAlias the application works fine,

Hello all, I am running in some little stumbling blocks with passenger as a multi user environment (the most problematic feature is that, once you setup a sub-domain passenger wants you to declare on nginx every app running on that nginx server which is not ideal to add apps on the fly and / or if a user wants to run 2 apps from his space) so I was thinking about a more drag a drop / one line

=== 1. Camping on Rack === I''ve just finished rewriting Camping to use Rack in the "core". I got rid of (a little less) than 1kB in camping.rb and removed lots of un-necessary files (lib/server/*.rb, fastcgi.rb & mongrel.rb). bin/camping does now only provide WEBrick, Mongrel and console-support and should only be used in development. It uses Rack::ShowExceptions to catch

Hi all, I have a little camping micro-blog that''s working well with the cookie session store, but falls over when I try to use the AR session store. The changes I made were: require ''camping/session'' becomes require ''camping/ar/session'' module Blog; include Camping::Session; end becomes module Blog; include Camping::ARSession; end and I did the

Hey Folks, I''m deploying a camping app on an internal Apache2 + FastCGI server at my office. Of course, on my Mac it works great, but I can''t get things to work with Apache and FCGI. I''ve followed the directions on why''s page documenting how to do this, but I''m getting the following error in my Apache error.log file: FastCGI: (dynamic) server

Hi Folks, I''ve been trying to get camping up and running on dreamhost for the past six hours, but have had no success. I''d really appreciate any suggestions! The camping gem is on the dreamhost server, but just to make sure it wasn''t a dependency issue causing all the problems, I installed camping + the full set of dependencies in my own gem directory (both are on the

I''m getting into camping in a big way--I love that you can put together full-fledged apps with so little code and overhead. Does anyone know of any documentation about getting Camping apps running on Media Temple''s GridServer? Of course I''ve found the Camping server page[1], but I can''t work out how to associate running camping apps with a (sub)domain

I just picked up Camping and I''m currently reviewing every little tidbit of information I can find out about it. I really liked the simplicity of RubyOnRails, but sometimes you want something fast and everything is relative. After looking at Camping, RubyOnRails seems like a lot of work if you just want to test out a prototype of a small web app. One thing I do miss are all the

Hi, I have built a simple Camping application which indexes an ODBC datasource using Ferret on startup, then accepts search strings and renders the resulting hit list in HTML, and it works quite nicely. The next step was to alternately render the list in XML for consumption by another application. In Rails, I would simply use Builder in the view to get the job done, and so I did the same in

I finally put together the final touches on the first version of the camping-oauth gem. It allows you to make a Camping web app into an OAuth provider. It leverages ruby-oauth and the oauth-plugin. An example of a use case is a web service built with Camping (using json/xml with/without REST). You can find it on GitHub: http://bit.ly/campingoauth I also wrote a blog post on how to use it (and

Hi all I found the Camping page on Wikipedia in need of some serious TLC, so I updated it, added some newer links and removed the ''stub'' status: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camping_%28microframework%29 I also pointed people to the Github repo for version 1.9. Please take a look and either make suggestions for further material for me to add (not too much...

Hello everyone, I have a site with a collection of camping apps. I''m trying to force one of them, blog.rb, to run as the index (''/''). I think that I understand the RDoc as stating that I can execute the following to make that happen: Camping::FastCGI.serve File.expand_path(current), Blog But, when doing so, I recieve the following error: Camping

Hi, It seems that for each change that I make in my camping application, I have to restart lighttpd to make it work. Also whenever something goes wrong, a syntax error in my camping application for example, things just stop working and I can''t see any error messages in the lighttpd logs or any other log. I just followed the instructions to use Camping with lighttpd on the wiki. Any

Oh, boy, this is great. Anyone here want to get paid for doing some camping work? Because O''Reilly is interested in doing a 20-30 page PDF on Camping. Please do it, guys. I won''t blab about how much it pays, but if it took you a couple days, you''d get back a hacka lot of moaney. Anyway, post your camping paid gigs, people. If we could have one guy in the world

Hey Campers, I liked Camping so much that I had to "port" it to Perl. My framework is called Squatting (as in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squatting), and you can get it from the following places: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Squatting/ http://github.com/beppu/squatting/tree/master It''s not a straight port of the Camping code, because Camping uses some weird Ruby idioms that

Hello Fellow Campers, I''m feeling crazy tonight and thought I''d go ahead and announce my new little project riding on the Camping framework: Dream Ledger (http://www.dreamledger.com). The app was written to scratch a personal itch, which is the simple fact that I wanted an easy way to record my nightly dreams and sleep experiences. Think about it as ''dream

Hi !!! I''ve just seen this message on http://redhanded.hobix.com/inspect/theCampingServer.html I''d really like to see distributions offer a package which would allow simple setup of TheCampingServer, just as you see with PHP. If you''re interested in seeing this happen for the upcoming Camping 1.5 release, introduce yourself on the

I''m putting together an episode of the Rails podcast that will be dedicated to Camping. I already have the first interview recorded. I''d like to get 3 or 4 more short interviews (short...maybe 4.096 minutes each). If you''d like instant fame, send me an email and tell me what camping project you would like to talk about, what your skype username is, and when is a good
