I'm in the process of refactoring some logic built into a Rails application into middleware, and one annoyance I've run into is a seeming lack of convention for where to put them. Currently I've settled on app/middleware but I could just as easily move it to vendor/middleware or maybe vendor/plugins/middleware... The biggest problem is...

I'm using Sunspot Solr search, which works fine for the most part for basic search. It's supposed to be able to handle quotation marks around phrases, so that a search for test case will return documents with both test and case, whereas a search for "test case" should return documents with the phrase test case. However, I've been pullin...

I use Authlogic to log the user in. Inside a Rails Metal I want to check if the user is logged in or not. Just that, I don't care who the user is.
