So now should I start learning RoR v1.2 or v2.x especially keeping the following in mind
I couldn't find any great free books/in-depth tutorials on RoR 2.x yet
I want to learn RoR with the eventual goal of doin...
I'm running a mySQL database locally for development, but deploying to Heroku which uses postgres. Heroku handles almost everything, except that my case insensitive Like statements become case sensitive. I know I could use iLike statements, but my local mySQL database can't handle that.
What is the best way to write a case insensitive q...
Hello
I try to get haml working without the gem with sinatra (Heroku doesn't allow gem install, as far as I know)
What I've done so far:
clone the haml git repo inside my project
add : require 'haml/lib/haml.rb' to my sinatra main file
the following works:
get '/test' do
Haml::Engine.new('%p test').render
end
but the following...
I want to find some hosting for a small Ruby (Sinatra) app that uses Graphviz and Dot.
Heroku is usually my favorite because it's a) Free, b) Simple, and c) Scalable. Heroku doesn't do Graphviz and Dot, so I'm looking for an alternative. Any ideas?

do you use Heroku to write Ruby on Rails app? i read about from the book Learning Rails from O'Reilly, and then today found that http://heroku.com/myapps doesn't have a "Create App" on the page so that I can edit the code online any more. Do they only allow that for the paid user? It also seems that they only let you have one web requ...

Heroku seems great, but most non-trivial applications require authentication, and conventional authentication schemes require an SSL connection, and it's impossible to get https://your_app_name.com (you can only get https://your_app_name.heroku.com).
So if you're using Heroku, is it that:
You don't mind directing users to

I'm using Heroku (heroku.com) to deploy my rails application, and am building an iPhone client to interface with it. My intention was to pass the unique device identifier of the phone to the app as a HTTP header for authentication. When I test locally, my headers come through fine, but on Heroku it seems to strip out my custom header. I ...
I setup a remote connection locally and need to push it to heroku. When I pushed it to heroku I got an error saying:

I'm just assuming (also searched and saw) heroku uses their own config.yml file.

Does the Pony gem support e-mail with SSL/TLS? I'm trying to (easily) send e-mail with Google Apps on Heroku.
Thanks!

I was able to push my Ruby on Rails app with MySQL(local dev) to the Heroku server along with migrating my model with the command heroku rake db:migrate. I have also read the documentation on Database Import/Export. Is that doc referring to pushing actual data from my local dev DB to whichever Heroku's DB? Do I need to modify anything...
Once you have uploaded your source code to Heroku, is it possible to download it from there if necessary such as in the case of a failure of your local disk?
Because of heroku's integration with git, I would assume this might be possible at least in theory.

For some reason times are appearing differently in development (my local Mac) and production (Heroku). Take a look: (Just prior to doing this I did a heroku db:pull, so the databases should be identical)

I'm trying to keep my static files in a separate branch so that I can keep them from merging into my master brach (on Heroku, your application's slug needs to stay small). I don't want to ignore my static files, because I want to keep them inside my "devel" branch.
Ideally I'd like to keep test.db blank and my entire public folder blan...
I had been using a Subversion for my source control, combined with git ONLY to deploy (push) to heroku. My pattern was: Update local working copy from latest master at remote subversion repository. Then do git commit and git push heroku (Git was set to ignore .svn stuff). This working copy I only used to push to heroku, I had another sub...
What is a good deployment strategy to use with Git + Heroku (ruby on rails)?
Currently the way I work with my origin git repository: All features (or 'stories') are first checked out as branches, then get merged with master and pushed to origin.
Anything pushed to origin/master triggers a script that pulls the new rails code to the s...
