Asked a little while back about "coolest startups" using Rails, I think it''d have been better had I asked "coolest software." Besides the obvious (37Signals, Typo, Yakima Herald, Odeo, Measure Map, etc.), I''m just curious about other developments where people are using it to make nifty stuff. -- Giles Bowkett www.gilesgoatboy.org

Hi everyone - sorry if this is a bit OT, I''m not subscribed to the ''ruby-talk'' list, but if anyone wants to cross post this over there... This is just a quick announcement to let people know that I''ve built a basic RDoc Dashboard widget for Mac OS X Tiger. It''s still beta-ish, but seems to work okay for me - and it''s a convenient reference

Hi -- well, that''s what I''m trying to do. Does anyone know what the best way to do it is? I have three controllers, each one has a hidden tag, and I want each one to salt its respective tag with the name of the action in effect, at the time that action runs, for every action in the controller. -- Giles Bowkett http://www.gilesgoatboy.org

I appear to have written code which travels backwards through time: http://www.vimeo.com/742590 This disturbs me immensely. If anyone can explain it, that would be cool. I think it''s an illusion brought about by how RSpec wraps the code it executes, and by the sheer weirdness of continuations. -- Giles Bowkett Blog: http://gilesbowkett.blogspot.com Portfolio:

Greetings, I am curious, I see quite a few references to using TextMate for rails development. I downloaded TextMate and used it for 30 days. I do not see what everyone is raving about. Snipplets are nice, but other editors do the same thing, some with much more power. Can anyone tell me what makes people draw to TextMate? Maybe I am missing the whole reason, I''d really like to

OK, general question for the community -- what''s the coolest startup using Rails? I don''t think "37 Signals" is a fair answer. I''m curious as to what kind of other developments are happening. Are there a lot of startups using Rails in the first place? Or do most of you who are lucky enough to do Rails for a living (I''m coding Java, bleah) work in large

Hi all, This is just another quick email to let everyone know that I''ve updated the RDoc Dashboard Widget to fix all the reported bugs and add most of the requested features. The changes include: * Bug fixes for erratic scrolling and ''stuck'' navigation panes * The ability to have multiple instances of the RDoc widget on your dashboard * Bookmarking functionality for

Hi all, Is there any integration with testing tools such as RSpec or Test::Unit planned? I see that the cruise task is run correctly, but the tests show up underneath the build log. Ideally I''d like them to show up the same way that they do in ''java'' CruiseControl, in their own section of tests. Will.

Hi all, where I work we''ve cooked up a kind of ghetto profiler for our specs. It basically just does this: time = Time.now # run the spec puts "woah! dude. long spec." if time > 1.second I''m simplifying here. I think the threshold is actually 0.1 seconds, and we use more precise language, and highlight the spec in red via terminal colors, etc. But the way it works

Hi - I''ve got a pretty popular Rails app on a Mongrel cluster with Apache and mod_proxy_balancer. How do I decide how many Mongrel servers to put in the cluster? I don''t have stats for the number of requests hitting the server yet, but I should have that data soon. The server has 2GB of RAM and has to do a lot of work with RMagick, including generating and storing lots of

form_remote_tag has a really useful little thingamob called :condition. you give it a string which is then interpolated into the form tag in such a way that the form is only submitted if :condition evaluates in javascript to true. so the logical thing to do is give it a JavaScript function <%= form_remote_tag ( :condition => ''your_function_here()'',

This is something I''ve come up against twice. First, I have an interactive editor which calls vi, emacs, or TextMate (etc.) via Unix, and then loads the file handed to the editor back into IRB after it''s edited and saved. I guess that makes it a special case of a more general question, which is how do you spec external processes, with a slightly more complicated version of the

Hi all - there''s a patch I need to apply from a ticket: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/8798 The ticket appears to be stalled on the lack of a test case. I figured I''d just whip one up, but because it''s an Active Resource thing, and the test case would need to do ModelName.find(:all), I''d need to either mock the network connection or set one up. In this

Hi all - does anyone know of a good blog post or wiki or something with a good guide to mocking? I''ve got some degree of responsibility for people who are creating mocks. I''m supposed to actually be telling them the best way to do it. In some cases we have code with like a bazillion mock(:x) statements and it''s kind of out of control. I have an idea how the specs should

Hi list, Is it possible to create a "dashboard" type application, like Netvibes.com, w/ script.aculo.us? _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list Rails-spinoffs-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails-spinoffs

I have a layout in gwidgets. To this, I wanted to add a Textbox(gtkEntry) created from rgtk2... The code is as follows: MainLayOut <- glayout(homogeneous = FALSE, spacing = 10, container = SubGroup) MainLayOut[1, 1, anchor=left] <- "Number of Total Patients: " font(MainLayOut[1, 1, anchor=left]) <- c(weight="bold") patients <- gtkEntry()

Hi All, Can anyone help me in making feed[xml/rss] generator for a webpage based on ruby/ruby on rails. Tell me if any ruby code is already available, to generate feeds for a webpage. Thanks in Advance. Sumanth. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hey everyone - I recently switched to using a Mac and have several different rails projects going and was getting tired of starting/stopping mongrels via the shell so wrote my first dashboard widget to do it for me.

I have installed Ruby and Rails on my Intel iMac according to the instructions provided by Hivelogic. Everything works perfectly. I have noticed that if I close Terminal and later come back and open it, It seems like the paths set in bash_login are lost. If I open bash_login the paths are still there however if i do ruby -v it says I am running 1.8.2 (mac default) when I have installed 1.8.4.
