The controller handles the incoming requests (such as Save New Account, -Update Product, Show Post) by manipulating the model and directing data to the view. - -In Rails, the model is handled by what's called an object-relational mapping -layer entitled Active Record. This layer allows you to present the data from -database rows as objects and embellish these data objects with business logic -methods. You can read more about Active Record in -link:files/vendor/rails/activerecord/README.html. - -The controller and view are handled by the Action Pack, which handles both -layers by its two parts: Action View and Action Controller. These two layers -are bundled in a single package due to their heavy interdependence. This is -unlike the relationship between the Active Record and Action Pack that is much -more separate. Each of these packages can be used independently outside of -Rails. You can read more about Action Pack in -link:files/vendor/rails/actionpack/README.html. - - -== Getting Started - -1. At the command prompt, start a new Rails application using the rails command - and your application name. Ex: rails myapp -2. Change directory into myapp and start the web server: script/server (run with --help for options) -3. Go to http://localhost:3000/ and get "Welcome aboard: You're riding the Rails!" -4. Follow the guidelines to start developing your application - - -== Web Servers - -By default, Rails will try to use Mongrel if it's are installed when started with script/server, otherwise Rails will use WEBrick, the webserver that ships with Ruby. But you can also use Rails -with a variety of other web servers. - -Mongrel is a Ruby-based webserver with a C component (which requires compilation) that is -suitable for development and deployment of Rails applications. If you have Ruby Gems installed, -getting up and running with mongrel is as easy as: gem install mongrel. -More info at: http://mongrel.rubyforge.org - -Say other Ruby web servers like Thin and Ebb or regular web servers like Apache or LiteSpeed or -Lighttpd or IIS. The Ruby web servers are run through Rack and the latter can either be setup to use -FCGI or proxy to a pack of Mongrels/Thin/Ebb servers. - -== Apache .htaccess example for FCGI/CGI - -# General Apache options -AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi -AddHandler cgi-script .cgi -Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI - -# If you don't want Rails to look in certain directories, -# use the following rewrite rules so that Apache won't rewrite certain requests -# -# Example: -# RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/notrails.* -# RewriteRule .* - [L] - -# Redirect all requests not available on the filesystem to Rails -# By default the cgi dispatcher is used which is very slow -# -# For better performance replace the dispatcher with the fastcgi one -# -# Example: -# RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L] -RewriteEngine On - -# If your Rails application is accessed via an Alias directive, -# then you MUST also set the RewriteBase in this htaccess file. -# -# Example: -# Alias /myrailsapp /path/to/myrailsapp/public -# RewriteBase /myrailsapp - -RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA] -RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA] -RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f -RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.cgi [QSA,L] - -# In case Rails experiences terminal errors -# Instead of displaying this message you can supply a file here which will be rendered instead -# -# Example: -# ErrorDocument 500 /500.html - -ErrorDocument 500 "

Application error

Rails application failed to start properly" - - -== Debugging Rails - -Sometimes your application goes wrong. Fortunately there are a lot of tools that -will help you debug it and get it back on the rails. - -First area to check is the application log files. Have "tail -f" commands running -on the server.log and development.log. Rails will automatically display debugging -and runtime information to these files. Debugging info will also be shown in the -browser on requests from 127.0.0.1. - -You can also log your own messages directly into the log file from your code using -the Ruby logger class from inside your controllers. Example: - - class WeblogController < ActionController::Base - def destroy - @weblog = Weblog.find(params[:id]) - @weblog.destroy - logger.info("#{Time.now} Destroyed Weblog ID ##{@weblog.id}!") - end - end - -The result will be a message in your log file along the lines of: - - Mon Oct 08 14:22:29 +1000 2007 Destroyed Weblog ID #1 - -More information on how to use the logger is at http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/ - -Also, Ruby documentation can be found at http://www.ruby-lang.org/ including: - -* The Learning Ruby (Pickaxe) Book: http://www.ruby-doc.org/docs/ProgrammingRuby/ -* Learn to Program: http://pine.fm/LearnToProgram/ (a beginners guide) - -These two online (and free) books will bring you up to speed on the Ruby language -and also on programming in general. - - -== Debugger - -Debugger support is available through the debugger command when you start your Mongrel or -Webrick server with --debugger. This means that you can break out of execution at any point -in the code, investigate and change the model, AND then resume execution! -You need to install ruby-debug to run the server in debugging mode. With gems, use 'gem install ruby-debug' -Example: - - class WeblogController < ActionController::Base - def index - @posts = Post.find(:all) - debugger - end - end - -So the controller will accept the action, run the first line, then present you -with a IRB prompt in the server window. Here you can do things like: - - >> @posts.inspect - => "[#nil, \"body\"=>nil, \"id\"=>\"1\"}>, - #\"Rails you know!\", \"body\"=>\"Only ten..\", \"id\"=>\"2\"}>]" - >> @posts.first.title = "hello from a debugger" - => "hello from a debugger" - -...and even better is that you can examine how your runtime objects actually work: - - >> f = @posts.first - => #nil, "body"=>nil, "id"=>"1"}> - >> f. - Display all 152 possibilities? (y or n) - -Finally, when you're ready to resume execution, you enter "cont" - - -== Console - -You can interact with the domain model by starting the console through script/console. -Here you'll have all parts of the application configured, just like it is when the -application is running. You can inspect domain models, change values, and save to the -database. Starting the script without arguments will launch it in the development environment. -Passing an argument will specify a different environment, like script/console production. - -To reload your controllers and models after launching the console run reload! - -== dbconsole - -You can go to the command line of your database directly through script/dbconsole. -You would be connected to the database with the credentials defined in database.yml. -Starting the script without arguments will connect you to the development database. Passing an -argument will connect you to a different database, like script/dbconsole production. -Currently works for mysql, postgresql and sqlite. - -== Description of Contents - -app - Holds all the code that's specific to this particular application. - -app/controllers - Holds controllers that should be named like weblogs_controller.rb for - automated URL mapping. All controllers should descend from ApplicationController - which itself descends from ActionController::Base. - -app/models - Holds models that should be named like post.rb. - Most models will descend from ActiveRecord::Base. - -app/views - Holds the template files for the view that should be named like - weblogs/index.html.erb for the WeblogsController#index action. All views use eRuby - syntax. - -app/views/layouts - Holds the template files for layouts to be used with views. This models the common - header/footer method of wrapping views. In your views, define a layout using the - layout :default and create a file named default.html.erb. Inside default.html.erb, - call <% yield %> to render the view using this layout. - -app/helpers - Holds view helpers that should be named like weblogs_helper.rb. These are generated - for you automatically when using script/generate for controllers. Helpers can be used to - wrap functionality for your views into methods. - -config - Configuration files for the Rails environment, the routing map, the database, and other dependencies. - -db - Contains the database schema in schema.rb. db/migrate contains all - the sequence of Migrations for your schema. - -doc - This directory is where your application documentation will be stored when generated - using rake doc:app - -lib - Application specific libraries. Basically, any kind of custom code that doesn't - belong under controllers, models, or helpers. This directory is in the load path. - -public - The directory available for the web server. Contains subdirectories for images, stylesheets, - and javascripts. Also contains the dispatchers and the default HTML files. This should be - set as the DOCUMENT_ROOT of your web server. - -script - Helper scripts for automation and generation. - -test - Unit and functional tests along with fixtures. When using the script/generate scripts, template - test files will be generated for you and placed in this directory. - -vendor - External libraries that the application depends on. Also includes the plugins subdirectory. - If the app has frozen rails, those gems also go here, under vendor/rails/. - This directory is in the load path. +== deltacloud framework is this thing, you see..
