With my Google hat on, I got to interview Michael Marcus and Rui Ma, two recent graduates from a masters program at NYU. They joined me to discuss Gears on Rails, their open source framework that makes it easier than ever to take a Rails code-base offline.
They take the approach of giving you a high level Ruby-ish way of developing your Rails app and having it work offline against local storage.
This means that you end up building actions like this:
-
def create_local
'
post = Post.build(params("post"));
Post.create_local(post);
window.location.reload( false );
'
end
They build the local framework on the Jester framework that is a "JavaScript client for REST APIs that uses Rails conventions, and is inspired by Rails' own ActiveResource".
This means that you can write client side code like this:
-
-
Resource.model("Twitter", {format: "json", prefix: "http://www.twitter.com", urls: {list: "/statuses/user_timeline/:username.json"}})
-
-
Twitter.find("all", {username: "bob"}, function(results) {
-
twitters = results
-
});

Adding Google Maps To Your Rails Applications
Although there's nothing preventing you from linking to Google's mapping JavaScript API and referencing the library directly from your views, jumping between Ruby/Rails syntax and JavaScript can quickly become a tedious affair. The YM4R/GM plugin remedies this issue nicely, abstracting the API calls through Ruby's familiar object-oriented syntax. With it you can do everything from render simple maps to build complex maps complete with custom markers, information windows, and clusters for facilitating the rendering of large numbers of markers.ongoing · Colophon
