Steps for Installation 1. Unzip the Instant Rails in a Certain Folder. It Steps for Installation 1. Unzip the Instant rails in a certain folder. It asks for confirmation for change of path sometimes, accept it. (see point 9 for installation too) 2. Use the ‘index.html’ file in the ‘help’ folder in InstantRails folder for help on installation. 3. Use the following steps too a. Download and unzip Instant Rails to the desired installation folder. http://instantrails.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl Run InstantRails.exe in InstantRails folder. Click ok to Regenerate configuration files? Add to Windows Environment Variables... My Computer > Properties > Advanced > Environment Variables > System Variables > Path > Edit C:\InstantRails\ruby\bin; C:\InstantRails\mysql\bin; C:\InstantRails\Apache; C:\InstantRails\PHP 4. Install the Aptana. Update the plugin for the RadRails. a. For details see the http://www.radrails.org/ and http://www.aptana.tv/movies/aptana_radrails_intro/aptana_radrails_intr o.html (video for installation help) 5. In Aptana(RadRails) go to WindowConfiguration menu. a. --Enter Path Information— (Where the path must have InstantRails path… he ‘C:\’ is taken as demo path) Go to Rails as, i. Rails > Configuration - Rails path: C:\InstantRails\ruby\bin\rails ii. Rake path: C:\InstantRails\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\rake- 0.7.2\bin\rake iii. Now Go to ‘Ruby’ still under WindowConfiguration menu as Ruby>Installed Interpreters >Add Button. There is a place for RubyVM home Directory, there is a browse button – Browse it and select the Ruby folder path. Like C:\InstantRails\ruby. iv. Under RubyVM system Library many files are added, push okay. v. In the Installed Interpreter part again you will now see the Ruby path and a checkbox, Select the checkbox. 6. START INSTANT RAILS SERVERS Double click InstantRails.exe (Apache & MYSQL start automatically) (Remember to Disable IIS from the Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services – select IISAdmin and stop it (Right click option)). 7. MYSQL ADMINISTRATION phpMyAdmin (Click on it) http://127.0.0.1/mysql/ 8. CREATE DEVELOPMENT & TEST DATABASES In phpMyAdmin -- Create new database : Database name -- Click Create. 9. Also from ‘InstantRails/help/index.html’ (very important …..some points of installation are repeated) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- Install & Verify Follow these steps to install Instant Rails and verify that it is working properly: • Download and unzip the Instant Rails zip file. • Make sure the installation path does not contain any space characters, and then start InstantRails.exe. • Instant Rails will detect that it is being started from a new directory and ask if you want to have it update the paths in the all of the configuration files... Just say yes. • The cookbook app is already configured to use Mongrel on port 3001, and Typo is already configured to run on port 3003, but we must tell Windows to fake the domain names that are preconfigured in the Apache configuration file: o Click on the I button (or press and release the Alt key twice) to drop down the main menu and select Configure > Windows Hosts file. o In the editor that pops up, add these two lines to the end of the file: 127.0.0.1 www.mycookbook.com 127.0.0.1 typo o Save the changes to the file (you must have Administrator privileges to do this), the filename is 'hosts' with no extension. Exit the editor. • In the main menu, select Rails Applications > Manage Rails Applications... • Check the checkbox next to the cookbook application. • Click on the Start with Mongrel button. A console window will appear. This contains the cookbook web app beinf served by the Mongrel server.. • Wait a few seconds to make sure the cookbook web app is fully initialized, open your browser and go to: HTTP://www.mycookbook.com You should now be using a running Rails application! If not, perhaps you have an already-running Apache instance. Shut this down, and InstantRails should magically work. Poke around in the menus of Instant Rails to see what's there. Running Typo • In the main menu, select Rails Applications > Manage Rails Applications... • Check the checkbox next to the typo application. • Click on the Start with Mongrel button. A console window will appear. This contains the typo web app running through Monrel. • Wait a few seconds to make sure the Typo is fully initialized. Open your browser and go to: HTTP://typo You should be taken through a series of admin setup screens. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- 10.But before that follow the chapter 2,3 of the Ruby on rails for dummies for some help on creating the Project [some procedures may differ as we are using the latest version of RadRails and InstantRails… so use you common sense on that part… as we have done till now to Install, modifying from older documents ;) ] 11.Links and Sources for help a. http://ruby.meetup.com/73/boards/view/viewthread?thread=2203432 b. Ruby On rails for Dummies chapter 2, 3. c. InstantRails/Help/Index.html d. For any help feel free to contact me ;).

It’s an amazing piece of work and, unusually, walks you through building a Rails app from start to finish with testing.

  • Rubywrite: a Ruby-Embedded Domain-Specific Language for High-Level Transformations
    RubyWrite: A Ruby-Embedded Domain-Specific Language for High-Level Transformations Andrew Keep, Arun Chauhan, Chun-Yu Shei, and Pushkar Ratnalikar Indiana University, Bloomington, IN 47405, USA fakeep,achauhan,cshei,[email protected] Abstract. We introduce a Domain Specific Language (DSL), called RubyWrite, embedded within Ruby, with the goal of providing an ex- tensible, effective, portable, and easy to use framework for encoding source-level transformations. Embedding within Ruby provides access to the powerful features of Ruby, including its purely object-oriented design and meta-programming capabilities. The syntactic flexibility and advanced language features of Ruby drove our choice of it as the host lan- guage. Easy integration of external C interfaces seamlessly within Ruby lets us move performance critical operations to C, or link with external libraries. RubyWrite was developed to aid our compiler research where it provides the core of three compiler infrastructure development projects, and is used as a teaching aid in a graduate-level compilers course. We expect RubyWrite to be widely applicable and a proof of concept in leveraging an existing modern language to write a portable compiler in- frastructure core. 1 Introduction We describe a Domain Specific Language (DSL), embedded within Ruby, aimed at simplifying the task of source-level transformations through term-rewriting. The DSL, called RubyWrite, is motivated by the need for a compiler development environment that allows easy integration of source-level transformations with program analysis. After spending frustrating months trying to develop a compiler for matlab in C++ a few years ago, we made the decision to move to a domain-specific lan- guage for compiler development.

    An Introduction to Ruby and Rails This paper was originally presented at the Southwest Fox conference in Gilbert, Arizona in October, 2010. http://www.swfox.net An Introduction to Ruby and Rails Rick Borup Information Technology Associates 701 Devonshire Dr, Suite 127 Champaign, IL 61820 Voice: (217) 359-0918 Fax: (217) 398-0413 Email: [email protected] Ruby is a powerful, object-oriented, open-source language with a clean and easily understandable syntax. Originally released to the public in 1995, wide-spread interest in the Ruby language really began to take off in 2003 with the release of the Ruby on Rails® framework. Also known as "RoR" or simply "Rails", Ruby on Rails is an open-source Web framework that makes it possible to quickly and easily create data-based Web applications. Together, the Ruby language and the Ruby on Rails framework can become an exciting and powerful addition to any developer's toolbox. This session introduces both the Ruby language and the Rails framework, focusing on their installation and use on a Windows® platform with a perspective geared toward experienced Visual FoxPro® developers. © 2010 Rick Borup Page 1 of 64 An Introduction to Ruby and Rails Table of Contents Introduction............................................................................................................................................................ 4 Installing Ruby and Rails on Windows......................................................................................................... 4 Installing Instant Rails
