[Engine-users] again plugins
http://www.pluginaweek.org/2006/11/24/6-plugin_routing-share-your-views-with-the-world/ This is getting weirder. 99% of whetever written on that site is applicable to Rails Engines. I mean, if you follow almost every article there, but install Rails Engines instead of their plugins, I think it just works. For now, the difference seems that an "engine" needs to be "an engine" (specially crafted). While in their version, all you need to do is just create a plugin, follow some conventions (like putting stuff in app/ subdirectory), and install the pluginaweek plugins (which are, well, 6 plugins?) When Engines can get rid of the "Engines.start" thingy and allows easier creation of engines (i.e. not that much difference between plugins and engines, just follow some simple conventions like directory names)... how will Engines and pluginaweek matches? In my mind Engines will be just all-pluginaweek-plugins-built-inside-one-plugin or the other way around.

Re: [Engine-users] again plugins
The 1.2 release will basically get rid of Engines.start, since Rails now includes a mechanism to control plugin loading order... hopefully that will stab the concept of 'installing an engine' in the heart, and everything will just be plugins again. Finally. It's only taken about a year :) On 11/24/06, Hendy Irawan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > http://www.pluginaweek.org/2006/11/24/6-plugin_routing-share-your-views-with-the-world/ > > This is getting weirder. 99% of whetever written on that site is > applicable to Rails Engines.

[Engine-users] Better Login-engine ?

I'd much prefer it if I personally I had some time to look into alternatives for LoginEngine, but actually hark is not even an engine yet. Also I couldn't find any other engines. Lots of generators, but those leave you with static code that benefits nada from code-sharing, and fixes that are made later on...

[Engine-users] edge engines + Rails 1.2RC1
Does Engines edge (svn) works with Rails 1.2RC1? Will Engines be split in two (pre-1.2 and 1.2.x), or there will still be one engines plugin that supports both Rails 1.1.x and 1.2.x ? -- Hendy Irawan Web: http://hendy.gauldong.net Mobile: +62 856 24889899 Yahoo Messenger: ceefour666 LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/ceefour ___ engine-users mailing list engine-users@lists.rails-engines.org http://lists.rails-engines.org/listinfo.cgi/engine-users-rails-engines.org
