The first NH Ruby and Rails User Group meeting of 2008 was attended by seven people interested in OpenID and ActionMailer.
Nick Plante gave an introduction to OpenID, discussing its benefits and current use on the 'net, and then dove into an example of using OpenID in a Ruby on Rails application. Scott Garman also gave a talk on ActionMailer, the Ruby on Rails component that sends and receives email. This talk included code examples from a live production Rails app, including testing practices for both unit and functional/integration testing. Both presentations have PDF slides that are available for download from the NHRuby wiki: http://wiki.nhruby.org/index.php/Past_meetings At the end of the meeting, discussion turned toward possible future meeting topics, which may include: * Behavior driven development with rspec. * Deploying Rails applications with JRuby. * Geocoding applications with Ruby. * Alternate frameworks and ORMs, such as Merb, Nitro, and DataMapper. * Comparing Django and Rails as web development frameworks. Feel free to reply to this post and add your own suggestions! Until next month...
