Params  class MyTestController < ApplicationController def index render_text “Hello ”+params[:who] end end  def index(): return "Hello %s" % request.vars.who def index(): return "Hello %s" % request.args[0]

Dispatching  http://hostname/MyTest/index class MyTestController < ApplicationController def index render_text “Hello World” end end  http://hostname/myapp/mycontroller/index calls def index(): return "Hello %s" % request.vars.who

Routing  routes.rb  routes.py (reversed routing, with or without regex, IP filtering)

Views  <table> <% @recipes.each do |recipe| %> <tr> <td><%= recipe.name %></td> </tr> <% end %> </table>  <table> {{for recipe in recipes:}}> <tr> <td>{{=recipe.name}}</td> </tr> {{pass}} </table>

Passing vars in views  class MyTestController < ApplicationController def index @message=“Hello World” end end  def index(): return dict(message=”Hello World”)

Layouts  <title>Layout Example</title> <body> <%= yield %> </body> </html>  <title>Layout Example</title> <body> {{include}} </body> </html> and in view: {{extend ‘layout.html’}} body

Forms  <%= form_tag :action => "update" dp %> Name: <%= text_field "item", "name" %><br /> Value: <%= text_field "item", "value" %><br /> <%= submit_tag %> <%= end %>  def contact(): form = SQLFORM(Article) if form.accepts(request.vars): redirect('thanks') return dict(form=form)

Validation  ActiveForm::Definition::create :article do |f| f.section :details do |s| s.text_element :email,:class => 'required' do |e| e.validates_as_email :msg => 'not email' end end  db.define_table(‘Article’,SQLField(‘email’)) db.Article.email.requires=IS_EMAIL()

Migrations  class Article < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :articles do |t| t.column :name, :string t.column :description, :text end end end  Article=db.define_table(‘Article’, SQLField(‘email’,’string’), SQLField(‘description’,’text’)

Queries  Article.find(:first,:conditions => [ "id > :id AND name = :name", {:id => 3, :name => "test" }])  db(Article.id>3 and Article.name==’test’).select()

Gems / Plugins  Lots of them  Free Appliaces (plugin system still under planning)

Installation  Must install ruby, Rails, gems, databases  Just a zip (crossplatform)

Web Administration  Nope  Killerfull fledged administration (even dedicated for apps)

Upload files  Plugins (paperclip)  Built in (specify as an 'upload' field

Users/Roles  Plugins  Built in (trivial to override)

Application Distribution  'Frozen' Applications  Share the application directory ByteCode compilation

Ticketing system/VC/ Unit testing  External  Builtin (you can even make patches via web interface)

Google App Engine  via JRuby (with LOTS of changes and hacks)  Natively (only framework that runs UNMODIFIED on GAE)

Caching  MemCache  For any function cache: in RAM, disk, memcache or combinations

Translations  Natively (but still hard to use)  You can add/edit translations via web interface

Routing  routes.rb  routes.py (reversed routing, with or without regex, IP filtering)

Support  Many books, very big community and tutorials  Two 'manual' books, smaller but dedicated community
