OLORE – OpenLaszlo Over Ruby Environment
Genacode is in the process of creating a novel OpenLaszlo over Ruby Environment (OLORE) which allows the OpenLaszlo Rich Internet Application client technology to interoperate with the popular Ruby on Rails web framework. Here is an OLORE Overview presentation.
Genacode has founded the OLORE Open Source Project to encourage community use of and contribution to core components of this technology. This wider use should help accelerate its refinement and broaden its applicability.
The OLORE concept is built around the RemoteObjects communication protocol. This allows OpenLaszlo Solo clients to communicate directly with Ruby class objects hosted in a Rails environment. Some Ruby classes with general usefulness as Services are provideded as additional Rails Plugins. The result is a modular Environment where commonly required Services may be selected for use. Developers may also easily develop and add their own application specific server side classes.
The following components are being made available as Open Source in the RubyForge OLORE project:- Rails Plugins:
- OpenLaszlo Library:
- RemoteObjects – API docs not yet available, but you can browse the source under trunk/laszlo/lib
Here are the 0.0.2 Release Notes
