simple active_resource API to mingle. (Not maintained)

Comingle¶ ↑

simple plugin to provide active_resource API to mingle. Tested with Mingle 2.3

Setup¶ ↑

1. Install as either a plugin:

   ruby script/plugin install <git repo path here>

or as a gem:

sudo gem install ssoroka-comingle

1. copy the plugin’s config/mingle.yml to your project config/ directory, edit as appropriate.

2. Set Mingle::Base config settings:

If using rails, add a config/initializer to load settings for the mingle class. There is an example initializer in config/initializers/comingle.rb

To use this outside of Rails, set the configuration with something like:

Mingle::Base.setup_from_config(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), %w(config mingle.yml)))

Examples¶ ↑

Try:

last_card = Mingle::Card.find(:last)
puts last_card.name

# update the updated_at timestamp of the card, nothing too destructive. :)
last_card.updated_at = Time.now
last_card.save

Bugs¶ ↑

There is a known problem with updating a card’s comments directly, changing the comments and saving the card will not actually write the new comments. I hear this is going to be resolved in Mingle 3.0. I’ll have to review it when Mingle 3.0 is released.

One work-around is to use transitions instead, which seem to have no issues updating comments.
