I come from a PHP environment where we have a "library" of sorts that contains various functionality in the form of object-oriented classes. The classes can be tied into any new project and the functionality of that class is gained without any duplication of coding efforts.
In learning Ruby on Rails, I'd like to create something similar for use in developing Rails applications. Is there a best practice for said "library" of functionality? How best is this code base shared between applications? Most importantly, how can updates to said library be easily reflected across all applications? For instance, we want to have a single login/logout user capability between applications, since all of our applications will share the same userbase. I know restful_authentication exists, but I'm working on rolling my own as a learning exercise. Give a User Model, Session (login/logout) and User (registration/ activation) Controllers, and an Authentication Module, what is the best way to share this code set across applications? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
