1
+ == Welcome to Rails
2
+
3
+ Rails is a web-application framework that includes everything needed to create
4
+ database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Control pattern.
5
+
6
+ This pattern splits the view (also called the presentation) into "dumb" templates
7
+ that are primarily responsible for inserting pre-built data in between HTML tags.
8
+ The model contains the "smart" domain objects (such as Account, Product, Person,
9
+ Post) that holds all the business logic and knows how to persist themselves to
10
+ a database. The controller handles the incoming requests (such as Save New Account,
11
+ Update Product, Show Post) by manipulating the model and directing data to the view.
12
+
13
+ In Rails, the model is handled by what's called an object-relational mapping
14
+ layer entitled Active Record. This layer allows you to present the data from
15
+ database rows as objects and embellish these data objects with business logic
16
+ methods. You can read more about Active Record in
17
+ link:files/vendor/rails/activerecord/README.html.
18
+
19
+ The controller and view are handled by the Action Pack, which handles both
20
+ layers by its two parts: Action View and Action Controller. These two layers
21
+ are bundled in a single package due to their heavy interdependence. This is
22
+ unlike the relationship between the Active Record and Action Pack that is much
23
+ more separate. Each of these packages can be used independently outside of
24
+ Rails. You can read more about Action Pack in
25
+ link:files/vendor/rails/actionpack/README.html.
26
+
27
+
28
+ == Getting Started
29
+
30
+ 1. At the command prompt, start a new Rails application using the <tt>rails</tt> command
31
+ and your application name. Ex: rails myapp
32
+ 2. Change directory into myapp and start the web server: <tt>rails server</tt> (run with --help for options)
33
+ 3. Go to http://localhost:3000/ and get "Welcome aboard: You're riding the Rails!"
34
+ 4. Follow the guidelines to start developing your application
35
+
36
+
37
+ == Web Servers
38
+
39
+ By default, Rails will try to use Mongrel if it's installed when started with <tt>rails server</tt>, otherwise
40
+ Rails will use WEBrick, the webserver that ships with Ruby. But you can also use Rails
41
+ with a variety of other web servers.
42
+
43
+ Mongrel is a Ruby-based webserver with a C component (which requires compilation) that is
44
+ suitable for development and deployment of Rails applications. If you have Ruby Gems installed,
45
+ getting up and running with mongrel is as easy as: <tt>gem install mongrel</tt>.
46
+ More info at: http://mongrel.rubyforge.org
47
+
48
+ Say other Ruby web servers like Thin and Ebb or regular web servers like Apache or LiteSpeed or
49
+ Lighttpd or IIS. The Ruby web servers are run through Rack and the latter can either be setup to use
50
+ FCGI or proxy to a pack of Mongrels/Thin/Ebb servers.
51
+
52
+ == Apache .htaccess example for FCGI/CGI
53
+
54
+ # General Apache options
55
+ AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
56
+ AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
57
+ Options +FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
58
+
59
+ # If you don't want Rails to look in certain directories,
60
+ # use the following rewrite rules so that Apache won't rewrite certain requests
61
+ #
62
+ # Example:
63
+ # RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/notrails.*
64
+ # RewriteRule .* - [L]
65
+
66
+ # Redirect all requests not available on the filesystem to Rails
67
+ # By default the cgi dispatcher is used which is very slow
68
+ #
69
+ # For better performance replace the dispatcher with the fastcgi one
70
+ #
71
+ # Example:
72
+ # RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]
73
+ RewriteEngine On
74
+
75
+ # If your Rails application is accessed via an Alias directive,
76
+ # then you MUST also set the RewriteBase in this htaccess file.
77
+ #
78
+ # Example:
79
+ # Alias /myrailsapp /path/to/myrailsapp/public
80
+ # RewriteBase /myrailsapp
81
+
82
+ RewriteRule ^$ index.html [QSA]
83
+ RewriteRule ^([^.]+)$ $1.html [QSA]
84
+ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
85
+ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.cgi [QSA,L]
86
+
87
+ # In case Rails experiences terminal errors
88
+ # Instead of displaying this message you can supply a file here which will be rendered instead
89
+ #
90
+ # Example:
91
+ # ErrorDocument 500 /500.html
92
+
93
+ ErrorDocument 500 "<h2>Application error</h2>Rails application failed to start properly"
94
+
95
+
96
+ == Debugging Rails
97
+
98
+ Sometimes your application goes wrong. Fortunately there are a lot of tools that
99
+ will help you debug it and get it back on the rails.
100
+
101
+ First area to check is the application log files. Have "tail -f" commands running
102
+ on the server.log and development.log. Rails will automatically display debugging
103
+ and runtime information to these files. Debugging info will also be shown in the
104
+ browser on requests from 127.0.0.1.
105
+
106
+ You can also log your own messages directly into the log file from your code using
107
+ the Ruby logger class from inside your controllers. Example:
108
+
109
+ class WeblogController < ActionController::Base
110
+ def destroy
111
+ @weblog = Weblog.find(params[:id])
112
+ @weblog.destroy
113
+ logger.info("#{Time.now} Destroyed Weblog ID ##{@weblog.id}!")
114

128
+ These two online (and free) books will bring you up to speed on the Ruby language
129
+ and also on programming in general.

132
+ == Debugger
133
+
134
+ Debugger support is available through the debugger command when you start your Mongrel or
135
+ Webrick server with --debugger. This means that you can break out of execution at any point
136
+ in the code, investigate and change the model, AND then resume execution!
137
+ You need to install ruby-debug to run the server in debugging mode. With gems, use 'gem install ruby-debug'
138
+ Example:
139
+
140
+ class WeblogController < ActionController::Base
141
+ def index
142
+ @posts = Post.find(:all)
143
+ debugger
144
+ end
145
+ end
146
+
147
+ So the controller will accept the action, run the first line, then present you
148
+ with a IRB prompt in the server window. Here you can do things like:
149
+
150
+ >> @posts.inspect
151
+ => "[#<Post:0x14a6be8 @attributes={\"title\"=>nil, \"body\"=>nil, \"id\"=>\"1\"}>,
152
+ #<Post:0x14a6620 @attributes={\"title\"=>\"Rails you know!\", \"body\"=>\"Only ten..\", \"id\"=>\"2\"}>]"
153
+ >> @posts.first.title = "hello from a debugger"
154
+ => "hello from a debugger"
155
+
156
+ ...and even better is that you can examine how your runtime objects actually work:
157
+
158
+ >> f = @posts.first
159
+ => #<Post:0x13630c4 @attributes={"title"=>nil, "body"=>nil, "id"=>"1"}>
160
+ >> f.
161
+ Display all 152 possibilities? (y or n)
162
+
163
+ Finally, when you're ready to resume execution, you enter "cont"
164
+
165
+
166
+ == Console
167
+
168
+ You can interact with the domain model by starting the console through <tt>rails console</tt>.
169
+ Here you'll have all parts of the application configured, just like it is when the
170
+ application is running. You can inspect domain models, change values, and save to the
171
+ database. Starting the script without arguments will launch it in the development environment.
172
+ Passing an argument will specify a different environment, like <tt>rails console production</tt>.
173
+
174
+ To reload your controllers and models after launching the console run <tt>reload!</tt>
175
+
176
+ == dbconsole
177
+
178
+ You can go to the command line of your database directly through <tt>rails dbconsole</tt>.
179
+ You would be connected to the database with the credentials defined in database.yml.
180
+ Starting the script without arguments will connect you to the development database. Passing an
181
+ argument will connect you to a different database, like <tt>rails dbconsole production</tt>.
182
+ Currently works for mysql, postgresql and sqlite.
183
+
184
+ == Description of Contents
185
+
186
+ app
187
+ Holds all the code that's specific to this particular application.
188
+
189
+ app/controllers
190
+ Holds controllers that should be named like weblogs_controller.rb for
191
+ automated URL mapping. All controllers should descend from ApplicationController
192
+ which itself descends from ActionController::Base.
193
+
194
+ app/models
195
+ Holds models that should be named like post.rb.
196
+ Most models will descend from ActiveRecord::Base.
197
+
198
+ app/views
199
+ Holds the template files for the view that should be named like
200
+ weblogs/index.html.erb for the WeblogsController#index action. All views use eRuby
201
+ syntax.
202
+
203
+ app/views/layouts
204
+ Holds the template files for layouts to be used with views. This models the common
205
+ header/footer method of wrapping views. In your views, define a layout using the
206
+ <tt>layout :default</tt> and create a file named default.html.erb. Inside default.html.erb,
207
+ call <% yield %> to render the view using this layout.
208
+
209
+ app/helpers
210
+ Holds view helpers that should be named like weblogs_helper.rb. These are generated
211
+ for you automatically when using rails generate for controllers. Helpers can be used to
212
+ wrap functionality for your views into methods.
213
+
214
+ config
215
+ Configuration files for the Rails environment, the routing map, the database, and other dependencies.
216
+
217
+ db
218
+ Contains the database schema in schema.rb. db/migrate contains all
219
+ the sequence of Migrations for your schema.
220
+
221
+ doc
222
+ This directory is where your application documentation will be stored when generated
223
+ using <tt>rake doc:app</tt>
224
+
225
+ lib
226
+ Application specific libraries. Basically, any kind of custom code that doesn't
227
+ belong under controllers, models, or helpers. This directory is in the load path.
228
+
229
+ public
230
+ The directory available for the web server. Contains subdirectories for images, stylesheets,
231
+ and javascripts. Also contains the dispatchers and the default HTML files. This should be
232
+ set as the DOCUMENT_ROOT of your web server.
233
+
234
+ script
235
+ Helper scripts for automation and generation.
236
+
237
+ test
238
+ Unit and functional tests along with fixtures. When using the rails generate command, template
239
+ test files will be generated for you and placed in this directory.
240
+
241
+ vendor
242
+ External libraries that the application depends on. Also includes the plugins subdirectory.
243
+ If the app has frozen rails, those gems also go here, under vendor/rails/.
244
+ This directory is in the load path.
