REST on rails

Hi,

I just heard about REST capabilities of rails 1.1. Does anyone know a
good tutorial, or good article to begin with?

Thank you

I’d recommend the book Agile Web D. with Rails 2nd edition,
still beta.
You can get the pdf though from pragmaticprogrammer.com. The latest
edition has a good section on REST as well as a walkthrough on a
simple app.

In the latest revision of Agile Web D. with Rails (beta book
PDF)
there are probably 10+ pages on it, it’s the best content I’ve seen on
it.

In my latest app I’m using Restful Authentication [1] and crudgenerator2
[2]
to try out Restful architecture.

Do you perhaps mean Rails 1.2? I don’t know about dramatic REST
upgrades changes in the 1.1 release. 1.2, however, is going to have
Simply Restful built in which would be a pretty big push forward for
RESTful approach on Rails.

If this is what you meant, check out the Simply Restful README and
DHH’s RailsConf keynote[1].

Yes, it was about 1.2, sorry. Anything else than this keynote?

Geoff Grosenbach from Topfunky has a new project ramping up called
peepcode (http://www.peepcode.com/). He is putting out some quality
quicktime instructionals on various Rails projects. In my opinion, the
1 1/2 hour offering of Restful Rails is WELL worth the $9 he is
charging. Highly recommended.
