Ruby on Rails users?


Question

Been a member of the forum for years now, rarely posting but it's surprising how little of Ruby on Rails I've seen here.

Is there a correlation between Windows users and PHP users?

(not that you can't program PHP on non-windows of course)

I'm working on a few projects of my own that I hope to get out there in time,

who here is making moves and working on projects with the fine framework?

let's see what you got :)

I use Rails for all of my sites. I'm currently in the process of writing/deploying my first Rails 3.0 site, but I haven't made it public yet.

Is there a tutorial around to install ROR on windows 7 ? I have tried a couple of tutorials. Unfortunately none of them worked for me and I gave up.

1) Go to rubyinstaller.org. Download Ruby 1.9.2-p0. Install. Check the option that puts ruby.exe in your PATH.

2) Stay on rubyinstaller.org. Download the devkit. DevKit-4.5.0-20100819-1536-sfx.exe. Install will extract files to a directory. Use c:\DevKit.

3) After the files have been extracted start a command prompt. Enter the following commands to install the devkit.

 cd c:\DevKit
 ruby dk.rb init
 ruby dk.rb install

4) RubyGems is bundled with Ruby 1.9.2. Run the following rubygems command to obtain Rails 3.0.1.

 gem install rails

5) You should be able to create a rails application now (rails new example_app). You'll need to install more gems eventually, but you can use bundler to do that from within your application.

I love Rails. Use it for almost all of my apps (I use Sinatra for some, but since Rails 3, I've pretty much ditched that).

Have played with Sinatra and definitely feel like there's a use for it when it comes to smaller projects.

Unable to use Rails 3 at the moment on production thanks to incompatability with mongrel (dispatcher issues) :(
