In my opinion the more you want to do these kinds of things the less suitable rails is for your app. Maybe if you swapped out sequel for AR you might have an easier time. I think that AR works best when you don't buck the system which means using it as a least common denominator thing. If you are using AR you give up all kinds of Postgres awesomeness. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby or Rails Oceania" group.
