What is Rails?

Full Stack

Web Application Framework

It’s all Ruby!

(okay, except one file)

(here it is) database.yml development: adapter: sqlite dbfile: db/dev.db test: adapter: sqlite dbfile: db/test.db production: adapter: sqlite dbfile: db/prod.db

Everything else is Ruby!

ActiveRecord

ActionPack

ERb views

ActionWebService

ActionMailer

Unit Testing

AJAX Helpers

Key Concepts

DRY: Don’t Repeat Yourself

Convention over configuration

Less code!

Order.hbm.xml 01 <hibernate-mapping> 02 <class name="models.Order" table="ORDERS" 03 dynamic-update="true" dynamic-insert="false"> 06 <id name="id" column="id" type="java.lang.Long" 07 unsaved-value="null"> 08 <generator class="identity"/> 09 </id> 10 <set name="items" lazy="false" inverse="false" 11 cascade="none" sort="unsorted"> 12 <key column="id"/> 13 <one-to-many class="models.Item"/> 14 </set> 15 <property name="name" type="java.lang.String" 16 update="true" insert="true" 17 access="property" column="name"/> 18 </class> 19 </hibernate-mapping>

Order.java 01 public class Order { 02 private Set items; 03 private String name; 04 private Long id; 05 06 public Long getId() { return id;} 07 public void setId(Long id) { this.id = id;} 08 public Set getItems() { return items;} 09 public void setItems(Set items) { this.items = items; } 10 public String getName() { return name; } 11 public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; } 12 }

order.rb 01 class Order < ActiveRecord::Base 02 has_many :items 03 end

Rails is expressive

class Project < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :portfolio has_one :project_manager has_many :milestones has_and_belongs_to_many :categories validates_presence_of :name, :description validates_acceptance_of :non_disclosure_agreement validates_uniqueness_of :key end

#We’re slashing prices, all books are now half off! Product.find( :all, :conditions => “kind=‘book’” ) do |product| product.price *= 0.5 product.save end

How does it fit together?

Model View Controller

Ready, set, code!
