[ANN] Ramaze 2009.06

Michael Fellinger

6/2/2009 11:57:00 AM

The Ramaze development team is happy to announce version 2009.06 of Ramaze, the
light and modular open source web framework that tries to stay out of your way.

This release features a lot of work directly from our community and we are
really greatful for everybody who helped in testing, patching and contributing
exciting new features.

Our extensive set of specs and docs now covers almost every detail of
implementation and usage. Ramaze is under development by a growing community
and in production use at companies.

There have been too many changes since the last official announcement in
2008.07, so I will only list changes since the last release.

- The bacon scope :mock was renamed to :rack_test, added shared :webrat, so
you can run your specs with that as well. Also move the bacon-specific code
to ramaze/spec/bacon, prepare for test-framework-agnostic behaviour.

A complete Changelog is available at
http://github.com/manv.../tree/master/doc/CHANGELOG?raw=true


== Known issues

- Some problems may show up when running the specs, these are mostly caused
by the gem-versions of Rack::Test and Rack, they only affect the specs and
should have no influence on the actual runtime.


== Ramaze Features

- Builds on top of the Rack library, which provides easy use of adapters like
Mongrel, WEBrick, LiteSpeed, Thin, CGI or FCGI.

- Supports a wide range of templating-engines like: ERB, Erubis, Haml, Liquid,
Maruku, Redcloth, Remarkably, Sass, Tagz, Tenjin. And its own engines called
Etanni, Ezamar, Gestalt, and Nagoro.

- Highly modular structure: you can just use the parts you like. This also
means that it's very simple to add your own customizations.

- A variety of helpers is already available, giving you things like advanced
caching, OpenID-authentication or aspect-oriented programming for your
controllers.

- It is possible to use the ORM you like, be it Sequel, DataMapper,
ActiveRecord, Og, Kansas or something more simplistic like DBI, or a wrapper
around YAML::Store.

- Good documentation: although we don't have 100% documentation right now (dcov
says around 75%), just about every part of Ramaze is covered with basic and
advanced docs. There are a variety of examples, screencasts and a tutorial
available.

- Friendly community: there are people from all over the world using Ramaze, so
you can get almost instant help and info.
