Hi I want to write a simple Rails app that gets a list (of TFS Workitems) using a Web Service and presents it on a web page to users.
I would like to: * try and avoid using a DB (for simplicity) * have a free text search * filter and sort the list * user login * different users see different subsets of list data * maintain a complete copy of the list in my app. Update regularly by calling WS for latest changes. * keep things simple as I am a noob so my questions are: 1) how should I store my data (DB, XML file? etc). If DB - which? 2) how should I do the regular update. Rake,CRON etc 3) based on storage choice, how do I do free text search. I have read about ferret and sphynx. Do they require DBs? thanks for any suggestions Rhubarb --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
