Baseapp-orange updated v4
November 25th, 2009 • Blog, Programming
This was the fourth major update for my customized fork of baseapp, the next step will be to probably move some of the stuff to plugins and turn this into a rails template. We’ll see.
Anyway, the changes were:
Update V4
- Cleaned up code
- Common controller code lives in app/controllers/admin_controller.rb
- Common model code lives in lib/common_oranges_for_models.rb
- Integrated with CKEditor and Paperclip
- Integrated with translatable_columns that provides proxies for localized columns, depending on the locale set by I18n.
- Better use of inherited_resources
- Added themes, a quick way to associate a page with a given controller, ex: /news handles news
- Improved adminator generator:
- create a model: script/generate model Topic title_en:string title_nl:string title_de:string title_fr:string
- run the migration: rake db:migrate
- add the route: admin.resources :topics
- run the generator: script/generate adminator topic
TODO
- Total support for i18n (backoffice and frontend)
- Add tests with RSPEC
- Read menu configuration from yaml or database
- Add a Form generator
- Integrate with google analytics
- Turn this into a Rails Template
- More generators like, one to many and many to many relationships
- Replace restful authentication and role requirement with authlogic
