These are hard questions to answer, because they involve many other
questions (like, do you require a certain look or user interface, are
you adverse to learning a new framework, time constraints,
performance, etc.) Rails is pretty heavy duty, but if you plan on
learning it anyway and don’t mind a little feature bloat, I suppose it
might work for you.
So I think I will go to rails after, but I like to do things gradually
when I’m learning something.
I’m not in hurry (there’s already an interfacean working even if
incomplete)
d I’m firstly interested in learning now.
Are you stuck with Haml? Maybe take a look at Camping and Markaby if
the requirements for the web-based app are not overly rigorous.
No Haml is really fine, it was just to know if it could work anyway…
I think
it could, as long as apache calls a ruby file each time and the ruby
file
renders the template
I haven’t played with the LDAP library yet, so I can’t comment on it.
There’s active_ldap but I don’t get it to work on Leopard and even on
ubuntu 8.04, not a big deal net/ldap is just fine for me.
I don’t understand why only here on ruby half of my messages are not
actually
posted even it gives me no errros…
I’ll have to remember to write them inside textmate so I can repost
them.
This is a start point of the classes I need (not many in fact)
class Entry
attr_reader :multiple, :long
def initialize(ar1, ar2)
@multiple = [“mobile”, “telephoneNumber”, “mail”]
@long = [“description”]
end
end
class Person < Entry
they can just be readonly attributes
attr_reader :attrs, :cn, :sn, :fields
inside other there is a hash containing all other fields set
def initialize(cn, sn, other)
@attrs = {
:attributes => [“cn”, “sn”, “o”, “ou”, “mobile”,
“telephoneNumber”, “mail”, “description”],
:strict => [“cn”, “sn”],
:dn => [“dn”]
}
# super
@fields = {:cn => cn, :sn => sn}
other.each_pair do |key, val|
# don’t overwrite already compiled fields
if @attrs[:attributes].member?(key) and (not @fields.has_key?
(key))
@fields[key] = val
end
end
end
def to_s
pp @fields
end
end
class Factory < Entry
attr_reader :attrs
def initialize(o)
@@attrs = {
:attributes =>
[“o”,“telephoneNumber”,“facsimileTelephoneNumber”,“l”,“postalCode”,“street”,“description”],
:strict => [“o”],
:dn => [“o”]
}
@o = o
end
end
Then there are some methods that retrieve or updates the informations
and
some templates to show everything.
