Poll: Which distro do you use for Rails/Ruby development?

Good afternoon,
I’ve two quick questions for the Ruby/Rails community.

  1. Do you use Linux for Ruby or Rails development?

  2. If you use Linux, which distro do you normally use to develop?

Thank you for your input. :slight_smile:

  1. Yep
  2. FC4.

Windows, although as soon as I scrape some extra cash together I plan on
getting a Mac.

Never thought I’d hear myself saying that!

MacOSX. I do, however, deploy onto Debian.

A.

I use CentOS as a development platform with RadRails running on a
Windows XP work station.

I have also installed a full ruby (1.8.4 RC1) + rails (1.1) that I run
under cygwin (because cygwin gives me a real shell under Windows) on my
laptop. I didn’t tried with the cygwin version of ruby but I should…

hehe… Trust me… You will love using TextMate and iTerm for
development. It absolutely rocks.

But for jokes… Here is a chart of what to expect.

But in reality. Switching to Mac those 2 years ago was the best thing
that ever happened to me. I love not having to spend 10% of my
personal time just keeping Windows working and virus free.

I hate macs :slight_smile:

I had a small working app with three models and one controller. I
decided to add a table_name_prefix to the tables because I am
planning to deploy to a shared hosting environment where multiple
rails apps will use the same database.

I added this to config/environment.rb:

ActiveRecord::Base.table_name_prefix = ‘teemss2_’

I deleted the existing tables and the file db/schema.rb and ran rake
migrate again. Doing rake

I now have the same set of tables in the db with a prefix on their
names BUT when I try and execute a controller

database name: teemss2_development
table_name_prefix: teemss2_
table name: activities

I would think that Active Record should be trying to load:

teemss2_development.teemss2_activities

Instead it is trying to load:

teemss2_development.activities

which doesn’t exist.

I’m sure I shouldn’t have to refer to the actual table_name_prefix in
my controllers. In fact I don’t see how I can.

I’ve been looking at the rails source for clues and I’ll try a simple
smaple app from scratch using table_name_prefix to see if the
controllers work and what if any differences I can find.

Here the stack trace:

Instead here
Mysql::Error: #42S02Table ‘teemss2_development.activities’ doesn’t
exist: SHOW FIELDS FROM activities

hehe… Even though MacOS is much simpler in use than Windows, it is a
bit of a shock moving into it. You keep looking for the start button.

Hi,

  1. Do you use Linux for Ruby or Rails development?

Yes. Both development and deployment on Linux.

  1. If you use Linux, which distro do you normally use to develop?

Fedora Core 4 for both.

If you wait till the 1st of june you can get ubuntu dapper. Comes with a
new gedit that has snippets support and a plugin engine(big potential ie
svn). And with xgl/compiz you’ll see all the effects that make osx
pretty like it is.
