One of the nice things about Hobo is that you never have to write the seven boilerplate actions to get a basic CRUD controller (index, show, new, create, edit, update and destroy). The downside is that if you need to tweak the behaviour of one of those actions, there’s no code in your controller to tweak.
A few folk seem to be having trouble with the audio in the second screencast. We’ve just posted a rough Flash version as a stop-gap solution. The quality is a bit naff but it’s better than not being able to hear anything!
If anyone can recommend a nice tool for converting QuickTime to a good quality backwards-compatible Flash movie, please let us know in the comments. Thanks!
It’s a regular post-a-thon :-)
I just came across this old post on the Rails blog about Streamlined.
Of particular note:
I really like their approach of using separate UI classes instead of contaminating the model classes with administrative concerns.
That’s DHH, and I wholeheartedly agree. But then Hobo doesn’t have the “separate UI classes”. In fact Hobo does ask you to add extra metadata to your models which is then used in constructing the views.
Have I slipped up? I don’t think so…
Let’s not go so far as to call this a road-map, but I thought I’d just let you know what’s coming up.
