Install

Since my last post about Typo installation from git, the plugin management has changed. Typo now uses gems. Therefore, to install locally Typo, the process is now:

git clone git://github.com/fdv/typo.git
sudo gem install htmlentities  coderay json  calendar_date_select
sudo gem sources -a http://gems.github.com
sudo gem install datanoise-actionwebservice mislav-will_paginate
Rake db:migrate

You can still manage the plugins such as related content or recent comments using git submodules.

Routes

Some routes have changed. Therefore, you will probably need to update your theme. For instance: in theme/views/articles_comment_form.html.erb I replaced:

comments_path(@article) 
by 
@article.comment_url
and 
preview_new_comment_path(@article) 
by 
@article.preview_comment_url

For the live search: in theme/views/shared_search.html.erb I replaced:

{ :controller => 'live', :action => 'search' } 
by
live_search_articles_url

Cache

This is about Typo edge. It is not supposed to be a stable version. So use with caution! Right now the cache needs some improvement which should be done soon. Temporarily, I have disabled it by commenting in app/model/blog_sweeper.rb the line:

observe Category, Blog, User, Article, Page, Categorization, Comment, Trackback

About recent news, Matijs van Zuijlen has joined the Typo core team.

Thanks a lot to the Typo core team, Fred, Cyril and Matijs, for their excellent work and also for their extremely reactive support.

Let’s add to this RoR’s blog, Railsinside and Rubyinside:

• RoR’s blog
• Railsinside
• Rubyinside

Some other great flows I have in my list are:

• PullMonkey
• Igvita
• Railstip
  [EDIT] Added thanks to the comments:
• Ryan Daigle

[EDIT] Here is the OPML for all the previous RSS flows. Using this file you can import the links into your preferred RSS reader.

[EDIT] Thanks to Luke the list is now complete. And in case, like me, you did not know this Firefox feature, at the right of the url bar you have a star and a orange wave sign (the RSS logo). Just click on it to get the RSS flows that are ‘hidden’ (or not finally ;-) ) in the blog. Star is to fave the blog.

Then, I won’t resist to recommend you my flow ;-)

And finally for French readers:

• Frédéric de Villamil
• Shingara
• Ruby France

Let me know in the comments if you see any problem with the links or if you know one of the missing links. Also, if you have a blog about Rails activities, you are welcome to leave a link to your RSS flow. I might add the best ones to this list.

Happy reading.
PS Other Rails resources
PPS Doing this, I was amazed by the number of feeds going through feedburners. But if you are interested by stats about your feed you need to use it. So, I guess I will have to use it too.
