I notice that there are some plugins and gems that try to offer a particular vertical service. An example would be a shopping cart. What I would like to do is take some code I've written and make it into a module. I use the word module because I don't want to confuse it with plugin or gem though it may end up being one of those. I would like this module to be able to be added to an already built rails app such that the base URL could be set so that it doesn't conflict with urls the site is already using. I also would like to be able to add more than one module like Legos adding functionality to a site. So given that criteria what do you believe is the best approach? I see the engines plugin that claims to do that but so far my experience with that hasn't been good. At least not with the plugins I've tried. So it may not be engines fault.
PS Also how do you hand the database problem? Do you run more than one DB? Do you prefix the table names? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ SD Ruby mailing list sdruby@googlegroups.com http://groups.google.com/group/sdruby -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
