Peter,

There is no such tutorial, but if the you search the mailing list archives you'll find this question gets asked and answered periodically.

Radiant is a straight-ahead Rails application on it's own so their is no "standard" practice to integrating/merging the Radiant code it into an existing Rails app -- merging any two Rails projects offers it's challenges. However, there are a couple of other options to consider before you go that route:

1. Run Radiant as a separate app and incorporate any dynamic content / functionality that needs to blend into your content pages through a Radiant Extension (ref. http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Documentation under Extensions), or,

2. If the functionality of your existing application is well enough contained you should consider converting it into an Extension. Radiant Extensions are purposely structured very much like a stand-alone Rails application and, depending on it's complexity, converting your app into an extension may be easier than you imagine.

Again though, I encourage you to search back through the archives to find previous discussion on this question and consult the Wiki documentation on Extensions.

Good luck!

Loren
