mongo mapper or mongoid on heroku with rails 3

2010-09-21 Thread Josh Coffman
Anyone have thoughts or know if mongo mapper or mongoid work better with
rails 3 on heroku? Tried a couple things with each to see if I liked one
more that the other, but it seems fairly even. Just wondering if one runs
better on heroku  rails3.

Thanks,
Josh

I switched to Mongoid because it implemented ActiveModel early (and thus got
supported by other prominent gems, such as Devise for authentication).

Here's a good starter app for you:

2010-09-21 Thread Steve Smith
We've personally had no issues with Mongoid, not sure tried MongoMapper though.

We use the following config/initializer/mongoid.rb:

settings = URI.parse(ENV['MONGOHQ_URL'] || 'mongodb://localhost/dbname')
database_name = settings.path.gsub(/^\//, '')

Mongoid.configure do |config|
  config.master = Mongo::Connection.new(settings.host, 
settings.port).db(database_name)
  config.master.authenticate(settings.user, settings.password) if settings.user
end

Can't remember where the config came from but it works like a charm so thanks 
to whoever created it :-)

Thanks Steve  Pius.

Also, a general thanks to the heroku community. I really like how helpful
everyone is, which is probably an extension of how helpful the ruby  rails
communities are.

Mongoid.  The documentation is the difference.  I started with MongoMapper,
and it was great, but when I needed to know what was going on, I couldn't
figure it out.  I had trouble following the source, but that's probably
because I'm still a novice ruby developer.  John's plugin model was just too
sophisticated for me to follow at the time.

Caching of /public files

2010-09-21 Thread Alex
I'm wondering about the options for caching of public files, I would
image they are cached by default?

How do you set caching headers on them for instance?

Heroku and large sites

2010-09-21 Thread railsnerd
This comment on Hacker News got me thinking:

And with hilarious I mean really  hilarious, as in the $3500 price
point for a 50G memcached instance. For that money you can also buy a
physical server with 64G RAM every month, fresh from the factory...
--- http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1664914

50GB is massive and I'm wondering what sort of site actually needs
this?

Would a popular forum require this much?   It would have to be very,
very popular?

Yeah, that's a lot of money, and a lot of memory.

I'm against defining averages for that sort of thing because memory
usage is directly proportional to, among other things, how badly
written an app is. I'd wager that variable is actually the most
important.

My guess is Heroku is taking into consideration how easy it is to put
all that infrastructure to use, if you write an app with Heroku in
mind. And how much you'd save by not hiring a sysadmin, and... well,
still a lot of money  :)
