Rails Toolkit
Published December 10th, 2006 in Ruby on RailsThis is part of my Ruby on Rails project.
Once I figured out what I wanted to do, I guess I had to figure out how I was going to do it.
- InstantRails: kind of like xampp, but for rails. It’s a simple-to-use installation of rails that comes with a deployment of MySQL that works out of the box. I’ve been playing with this for a while now and it’s pretty easy to use. So easy, in fact, that it just worked without my needing to do anything.
- I do my actual coding in eclipse, using these two ruby plugins:
- RDT: update site (http://updatesite.rubypeople.org/release).
- RadRails:update site (http://radrails.sourceforge.net/update).
- I’m doing my user authentication with the LoginGenerator gem.
I keep track of any other bits and bobs I find interesting on this subject in del.icio.us at http://del.icio.us/braindelay/ruby.
