At long last, Hobo 1.3 is released.
The big news in 1.3, as most of you will know, is Rails 3 support. There are a bunch of other improvements as well. Read the details here:
http://cookbook.hobocentral.net/manual/changes
To get Hobo 1.3 just gem update hobo.
The work behind Hobo 1.3 is mostly thanks to Domizio Demichelis, and as always Bryan Larsen and Matt Jones have made some great contributions. Thanks guys, and thanks to everyone in the Hobo community for your part, even if it’s just being there on the forum for newcomers. And of course thanks to Owen Dall and Barquin International for their continued sponsorship, without which we wouldn’t have got here.
We would like to have released Hobo 1.3 much sooner, so apologies that it has taken so long. Work has already begun on Hobo 1.4 and Rails 3.1 compatibility.

Great news! congrats!
Yea now updating! thanks great job!
Greetings,
I’m exploring Rails 3(.x) and tried Hobo and of course it’s a no-go. It may save (some) folks a bit of time if you include a ‘mini how-to run with Hobo’ so all needed steps present.
Since I have installed gems for Rails 3.0 and 3.1 this should be an auto-magick item (IMO.) The 2-minute post says, “You need at least version 3.0 of Rails:” – perhaps I am missing something?
Perhaps building hobo to auto-configure as needed so explorers won’t see:
“Hobo Command Line Interface 1.3.0
Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem “actionpack”:
In Gemfile:
hobo (= 1.3.0) ruby depends on
actionpack (~> 3.0.0) ruby
rails (= 3.1.1) ruby depends on
actionpack (3.1.1)”
Looks really interesting so I’ll keeping poking about until I get Hobo working…
:)

Dale,
I have pulled my hair out over the last few week trying to get a working installation of hobo and found lots of resources detailing different approaches, none of which seem to work for my situation.
Anyway I went through a process of trial and error and eventually had some success installing hobo 1.3.0pre2. I documented the steps (only my own notes so hope they make sense to you) I went through to install on Windows 7 64 bit. After 2 weeks of playing with hobo though I do think its worth the effort and perseverance.
The notes may need some slight amendments to get hobo 1.3 full release installed and working but at least you have a start…
- installed ruby 1.9.2 p290
- Downloaded and installed RubyGems 1.8.11 – ruby setup.rb
- Installed devkit – ruby dk.rb init & ruby dk.rb install
- Installed Rails – gem install rails -v 3.0.10 –include-dependencies
- Made sure the only remote resource was rubygems.org
- Installed hobo – gem install hobo –pre –no-ri –no-rdoc
- Installed sqlite3 – gem install sqlite3
- Copied sqlite dll and def files into C:ruby192bin
- Installed earlier version of willpaginate – gem install willpaginate -v 3.0.pre2
10.Add gem dependency to sites gemfile – gem “willpaginate”, “3.0.pre2″
11.Unlock the bundle – bundle update willpaginate
12.Do a Bundle Install on the site
13.Uninstall willpaginate version 3.0.pre4 – gem uninstall willpaginate -v 3.0.pre4
Hope it helps ;-)

Hmmm, will try that again as it seemed to get formatted strange…

I’m back – after some diversions. I was able to get Hobo running a few days after my post and I did create a web post about it.
http://web-tech.ga-usa.com/2011/11/hobo-fasssssssssstttt-rails-3-appssite/
I used ‘rvm’ to get things into a sensible state.
Currently working through the large tutorial (nice job) but encountered a small issue with CH 3, tutorial 8 – model relationships part II. Things work, however the ‘category’ display shows ‘#’ instead of a post-related id number, i.e.
« Back to Recipe [#, #]
Category Sweet
- Relationships seem to work fine.
- I did run a migration.
- I did restart the server.
