Hi all, Yes, I've put hobix on rails. It's at www.podOmatic.com.
Okay, I wound up not using quite a bit of hobix, as the site's geared toward novice users, and they don't much care about trackbacks or RedCloth. So what did make it in? Pretty much, just the weblog base class and the YAML stuff. I do intend to improve on that. The site is built around the idea of podcasting. We provide anyone with their own podcast blog and all the associated bits and pieces like search, folksonomy, recommendations, and an online media library. Hobix is flexible enough that it wasn't a big stretch to add an email-like facility for sharing audio files. You can record new audio directly through the browser using a flash applicaation, and there are some flash tools on the site that allow you to create multi-part recordings (think intro and outro). I hacked the rss plugin (and the Entry class) to allow enclosures, and replaced the Storage fu with a distributed filesystem-based storage layer. So if you get a podmail from someone, or you see a link to someone's podcast on podOmatic, be glad! hobix is in there, saving the day! Thank you all for your help along the way and most of all, for Hobix itself. -- Justin Dossey Operations, podOmatic _______________________________________________ Hobix-is-the-way mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/hobix-is-the-way
