Aptana RadRails is an Integrated Development Environment for Ruby on Rails projects. Built on top of the well-known Eclipse platform, RadRails provides all the tools you need to create a whole Rails application from a single interface, allowing you to focus on the creative part of the development as your IDE takes care of the mechanics.
What you will learn from this book :
This book will show you how to use the tools RadRails provides to improve your productivity:
- Tools for writing code: Specialized Editors for Ruby, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript; Code Assistance; Code Completion; Refactoring; Quick Code Navigation; Outline Views
- Tools for testing and debugging: Unit Testing; Graphical Debugger; Monitoring of Log Files
- Tools for project management: Specialized views for launching your Tasks and Generators; Management of your Gems and Plug-ins; Rails Servers Control
You will also learn how to use other Eclipse plug-ins for synchronizing your projects with Subversion and for managing your databases.
Who this book is written for
This book is for Ruby on Rails developers who want to make the most of the framework by using an Integrated Development Environment.
Even though the book explains everything you need to follow the contents, the focus is on how to use the tool and not on the Rails framework itself, so previous working knowledge of Rails is highly advisable. Previous knowledge of Eclipse is not necessary.
