you said you wanted to add more laguages with time, mongodb lets you at columns to a table on the fly, like this,
lets say you have a table called Content with a column for each language but right now you have 2 languages, english and italian with mongodb you just say , content.german = "...", with mongodb and from then on the table has a german field no migrations needed. at this are the columns content id| owner_type| owner_id | english| italian | then one day you say article.content.german = "blah blah" then on the fly from that day on the table turn to this without the need for migrations content id| owner_type| owner_id | english| italian | german| On Sun, Sep 12, 2010 at 2:42 PM, Almog Friedman <[email protected]> wrote: > the problem with that way is that it is intended for an application which > receives most of its data as user content and the static content of the > page(what i control of) is by the most parts isn't much. most of it is > titles and headlines and maybe some explanations of things. > > this is not the case with my app. > with my app i am the provider of most of the data, the user only interacts > with it. im talking about hundreds upon hundreds of lines of content all > made by me. i don't want to edit this entire data by hand, > i want to use a database. which is why i got to my method as described in > my vary first post. with a simple form with which i could insert the data to > the database at ease. > > now as i ran out of options, could you please help me figure out where > should i put this method i did so i would still follow the DRY principle and > use MVC correctly? > > > On Sun, Sep 12, 2010 at 3:54 PM, Alpha Blue <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Almog Friedman wrote: >> > first of all >> > Alpha blue, thats exactly what i want.any ideas on how to do this? >> > and radhames brito, i didnt understand a thing from your comment. could >> > you >> > explain a little more what do you think i need to do? >> >> You might want to start here: >> >> http://github.com/defunkt/gibberish >> -- >> Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. >> >> -- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups >> "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. >> To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. >> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to >> [email protected]<rubyonrails-talk%[email protected]> >> . >> For more options, visit this group at >> http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. >> >> > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]<rubyonrails-talk%[email protected]> > . > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
