Merb support
by Erno Mononen
::
Rate this Message:
Hi folks,
Before Christmas I checked in basic support for Merb apps, the code is in the ruby.merbproject module, but it isn't part of the standard build. Currently it covers: - new project wizard - project customizer - logical view - running Merb apps - running tests - Rake runner - IRB - possibly some other standard project stuff that I don't recall now I haven't had much time to test, let alone to polish it, so except a rough ride if you give it a try. Anyway, I did this all before the Rails/Merb merge was announced, which obviously impacts this effort -- once Rails 3 is out separate Merb support in the IDE will gradually become obsolete. Given that and the fact that I've got a ton of other things on my plate, I'm afraid that I can't spend much more time on this. I'll try to find the time to do some rudimentary testing, fix the most obvious bugs and publish the module on the update center for 7.0. If anyone wants to take over the module and develop it further, you're most welcome to do so.

Great job Erno, Anyway, I did this all before the Rails/Merb merge was announced, which obviously impacts this effort -- once Rails 3 is out separate Merb support in the IDE will gradually become obsolete.Actually, now that Rails 3 will support multiple stacks and modularity we will need all the features you worked on for Rails 3. After all merb 2 == rails 3 so it would be really too bad to give up on features that will be required very soon. (and which are already required for Merb devs and people wanted to have an idea of what kind of new stuff rails3 will have) - Matt On Fri, Jan 9, 2009 at 6:51 AM, Erno Mononen <Erno.Mononen@...> wrote: Hi folks, |

(and which are already required for > Merb devs and people wanted to have an idea of what kind of new stuff > rails3 will have) Yes, I think one option on how to support Rails 3 in the IDE is to build on top of Merb support (the other options being building on top of the existing Rails support or doing it separately). I think I read somewhere that you should have an alpha version of Rails 3 out sometime in May, is that correct? Would that mean a final version by the end of the year or so, or is that too early to tell? We'll need to look at how this fits into NetBeans schedules and consider what would be the best way to deliver rails3/merb support -- a module on the update center gives us more flexibility to deliver updates etc. until things stabilize.

Would that mean a final version by the end of the year or so, or is that too early to tell? That's correct, we are shooting for a RC1 in May and probably a final version in September or so, but it's really early to give an accurate estimate. I think a lot of people will start moving to Rails Edge to get the benefit of the merge. Having a way to point new users to edge + netbeans would be great. I don't see a problem with offering merb and rails 3 support as modules, at the contrary, that should make things easier when one will need to update. - Matt On Tue, Jan 13, 2009 at 5:00 AM, Erno Mononen <Erno.Mononen@...> wrote: Hi Matt, |

btw I'm getting more and more requests for a Merb IDE as people are looking at Merb as a preview for Rails3.

Hi guys,
So currently you need the build the module yourself, it's in main/ruby.merbproject. Obviously not convenient for someone not building the IDE from sources. I'll look into putting the module available somewhere for download, or setup a build process for it on Hudson.
