It was an enjoyable meeting with some new faces. Eldon's Rails Routing topic provided a great review for experienced users and shed some light on some of the newer aspects of Rails' routing system. It was also neat to look at how the routing has changed over time. My presentation was on DataMapper, and looked more at the pattern than actual code examples. The slides will be available on our google group. </p> Wed, 30 Jul 2008 10:22:00 -0500 http://kcrug.org/blog/entry/33665/july-summary /blog/entry/33665/july-summary <p>Thanks to Sean, Scotty, and Josh for presenting a variety of GUI toolkits for Ruby. We'd also like to thank Sean Cribbs for organizing the meetings and wish him well on his move to a new home. We'll miss his contribution to the group greatly. <strong>Good Luck Sean!</strong></p> Wed, 30 Jul 2008 10:21:00 -0500 http://kcrug.org/blog/entry/33664/june-summary /blog/entry/33664/june-summary <p>Here's the URLs from my Shoes presentation:</p><ul><li><a href="http://hackety.org/press" title="Shoes Doc">http://hackety.org/press</a></li><li><a href="http://code.whytheluckstiff.com/shoes" title="Old Shoes Repo + Docs/Links">http://code.whytheluckstiff.com/shoes</a></li><li><a href="http://github.com/why/shoes" title="New Shoes Repo">http://github.com/why/shoes</a></li></ul><p>If you want the binaries, try <a href="http://code.whytheluckystiff.com/dist" title="Shoes binaries">http://code.whytheluckystiff.com/dist</a></p> Tue, 24 Jun 2008 22:45:00 -0500 http://kcrug.org/blog/entry/30526/shoes-urls /blog/entry/30526/shoes-urls <p>Here's some links that we used in our RSpec meeting that will help you get started and/or get some understanding about RSpec:</p><ul><li><a href="http://seancribbs.com/introduction-to-rspec">Our Presentation Slides</a></li><li><a href="http://s3.amazonaws.com/seancribbs-com/KCRUG%20-%20RSpec%20-%20February%2012,%202008.m4v?torrent">Download the video of the presentation with BitTorrent</a></li><li>Code Redux from presentation <a href="http://www.screencast.com/t/sORvntZtlI">here</a> and shorter :)</li><li><a href="http://dannorth.net/introducing-bdd">Dan North on BDD</a></li><li>Get <a href="http://rspec.info/documentation/rails/install.html">RSpec</a> in your project</li><li><a href="http://peepcode.com/products/rspec-basics">PeepCode RSpec Screencasts (actually a series of 4 now)</a></li></ul><p>That should be good to get you started.
