Coolsky — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 00:06:40 +0800

This book will help you sleep better at night, knowing that your application can handle anything that gets thrown at it. Come away with the knowledge of how to optimize your Rails projects for speed and concurrency. You'll take advantage of advanced caching techniques and become an expert in lighttpd and Apache server environments.
　　No longer will it be trial and error when it comes time to go live with your gem of an application. You'll not only learn the how of configuring your production environment, you will also learn the theory behind it so you can adapt and keep up with new methodologies as Rails technologies rapidly advance.
　　Everyone is talking about developing in Ruby on Rails. And while developing applications using Rails is pure joy, knowing how to deploy a Rails application in a real, live, production environment has so far been a lot harder.
　　Until now, the information you need has been highly fragmented and sometimes contradictory. But this book will change all of that: by consolidating all the hard-to-find options and advice you need, you can now deploy your applications in the best possible way. You'll learn all about the full range of options for production Rails deployment, from security to scalability and more, using apache, lighthttpd, Mongrel, and even Microsoft Windows.

Advanced Rails Recipes 下载 ... 2 replies

Coolsky — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 00:06:35 +0800

From the author of the indispensable Rails Recipes, and with the help of a new master Rails chef in the kitchen, here are 72 new ways to kick your Ruby on Rails apps up a notch. More Rails Recipes is a collection of practical recipes for dressing up your web application with little fuss. You'll learn how the pros have solved the tough problems using the most cutting-edge Rails techniques so you can deliver your stunning web app quicker and easier.
　　
　　 Developers by the thousands are coming to Rails-the benefits are clear, both to individuals and their organizations.
　　
　　 But how can a developer be expected to write idiomatic, effective Rails code when the technology is so new? The answer is to work alongside masters, people who've been there from the start (and who have the scars to prove it). And, what better way to learn from their experience than to look at their code and read their explanations of why it's written that way? And even better imagine if that code can be lifted and placed right into your own application.
　　
　　 This is better than just cut-and-paste: the recipe format means you'll understand the code, and be able to modify it to suit your needs. And the list of recipes is so broad that you're bound to find tips and techniques where you'll say "Oh! That's how they do that," or, "I didn't know you could do that in Rails."
　　
　　 With More Rails Recipes, a following up to the popular original Rails Recipes, you can cook up a storm.

这是的来自ChinaonRails.com社区对Ruby on Rails 2.1, What’s New?的中文翻译版本。点击这里下载.

译序：
Rails2.1发布已经有段时间了，我们都是零零碎碎的看到一些新功能介绍文章，且基本上都是英文的，中文资料不多，仅有一些比较零碎的片段，看到《Ruby On Raisl 2.1,what’s new》(Second Edition),大致的翻了一遍，发现其介绍的比较全面和具体，邀请一些Railser一起翻译成中文版本，望此文档能带给大家有用的信息，如果您发现有不妥的地方，欢迎指出，同时也希望有时间、愿意贡献的朋友一起加入，后续会再翻译其他的书籍！

评《Jruby语言实战技术》 ... 7 replies

琳琳的小狗 — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 10:28:04 +0800

作为程序开发人员，时刻关注国外新动向早已成为了习惯。如火如荼的ruby on rails框架，更是引起了业内人士的广泛关注——清晰的架构、简洁的开发模式、浓缩的代码开发量……这一切都来得这么突然，又是那么的自然，相比以前 javaee混搭框架的繁琐，rails无疑大大解放了生产力，让人不得不惊叹于它的快速、敏捷。

但是，rails毕竟是新生事物，相比之下，由于企业对java平台技术的投入和积累，国内真正使用rails进行产品开发的企业还是非常少，很不幸，我所在的公司也是如此，因为很多遗留系统都是基于java平台的。我是一个对新技术很感兴趣的家伙，就像之前钻研AJAX那样，也花了不少业余时间来学习 ruby/rails的相关知识，但不同于前者的是，一直没有机会将学到的东西应用到工作中，导致对其的理解一直停留在理论上，无法在实际中印证。于是，我开始四处寻找java平台上的动态语言，希望能找到一个相似的实现，以便能说服领导，将其先进的思想推广到工作中来，这其中包括jython、 groovy等都做了深入的考察。因为之前对python比较熟悉，所以也对jython抱有很大的期望，可惜的是他的开发速度一直停滞不前，直到最近版本号还是2.2，相比C实现的python已经落下很远了，而且它还不能运行python的流行web框架django，于是作罢；后来，也花了不少时间系统学习groovy，因为基于它开发的grails还算活跃，也极大的简化了传统java开发的繁琐，但是grails的view模板、很多恼人的 bug，以及groovy非革命性的语法风格总丢不掉java的影子，慢慢的让我对其也失去了兴趣。这时候欣喜的发现jruby发布了它的1.0版，综合各方面（开发速度、实现成熟度）来看，jruby成了目前在JVM上结合ruby技术的最完善的平台——完美的兼容ruby语法，与java平台的无缝集成，社区的活跃程度，无疑是开发、部署rails到java环境的最佳选择。

最近在博文官方blog上得知，由骆古道老师领头编写的《Jruby语言实战技术》即将出版面世，这是国内第一本中文Jruby专著（当然前提是能在图灵那本apress译著之前出版才算），真是振奋人心的消息！于是迫不及待地向编辑索取了试读样章，仔细阅读了一遍，虽然只有短短的两章，但一管窥全豹，作者文笔优美，针对每个相关知识点都进行了细致入微的讲解，并辅以翔实的示例代码帮助加深理解，毕竟是国人所著，阅读下来给人的感受非常顺畅。并且，一直以来，骆老师通过它的个人blog，源源不断地向中文社区贡献了很多优秀的rails相关技术教程，是一位广受尊敬的先行者，他的作品当然也是非常值得期待的。

第三章“JRuby 语言构建系统”，介绍了何谓构建系统，及其在jruby平台中的应用（rake、buildr），深入浅出的讲解了每一条常用的命令，以及常见问题的解决方案；作者通过混合ruby、java程序编译部署的实例来进一步论证了jruby与java虚拟机的无缝集成，其中关于rake的部分帮我弄明白了很多之前不知道的配置、使用细节。

第七章“JRuby 语言终端应用”，利用jruby开发命令行工具的过程来阐述jruby语言的运行机理。通过考察现实中的开源项目lines_of_code，并动手改进增强，循序渐进的引入小型框架并结合流行的java集成开发环境eclipse来实际操作，为读者开辟了一条学习jruby的最佳途径，作者非常注重细节，在动手的过程中，也不忘穿插介绍一些ruby的基础知识，如变量声明、循环、注释等，对正则表达式在ruby中的运用也有详细的讲解。

从目录上看，骆老师这本书涉及的范围很广，包涵了使用jruby进行日常开发的方方面面，个人比较期待最后两章讲解rails在jruby上的应用。正如李琨老师在推荐序中所说，此书既适合具有java知识背景，想快速、全面的了解jruby的程序员扩宽视野，也适合那些熟练掌握ruby，想融入java 的程序员学习，不管是作为入门指南还是参考手册，这都是非常棒的一本书。
