sounds strangely circular...
Hey folks, finally working on a small project and wanted to see if anyone could suggest anything while I'm still planning things out.
Can you build an Angular app and just use Rails for authentication and hookup to a DB? or do you have to make a full blown Rails app with Angular'd views?

Also since Rails uses activerecord and migrations to make schema/db changes, what would be a suitable way to allow a non-dev admin user make DB changes from a web GUI? Let's say I have a tools/materials table with attributes like hammer, nails, wood, etc. I can set it up in Rails but if an admin wanted to add 'screws' or 'steel' columns to the table, is that even possible in Rails without migrations? Surely there must be an easier solution - I only really know about these things in a Rails context still. :worried:
Tony, your end user should not be able to do anything that will affect the schema of the db.
Think of it from a REST perspective. What is the user creating? How is that thing related to the other things that user can CRUD?
Tony, the Anluarails book covers authenticaiton with Devise.
I'm so dumb. I could just make a 'Materials' table with material and quantity columns and let the admin CRUD whatever they want as a new material and make it a new row.
I was confused because one guy was saying 'we have to make sure we can let the admin CRUD the database and add new tables/columns'
also I searched for Anluarails but came up with nothing - is there a typo in there somewhere?
"Our stack: ColdFusion, jQuery, Python, Asterisk, MS-SQL"
no good?
no good?
they said I could work remotely though since they're in dallas/fort worth and i could just fly in like once a quarter or something. idk i'm starting to get a little desperate....
thanks for the advice brook
i think its saas
I was thinking cell phone tracking

twilio would make that really easy too
and it wouldnt be to terribly hard to set up
For some reason it crashes at

@brookr do you have any experience with chef? I have a node app that I need to deploy to a domain. I have jenkins job that will create a server instance for me and I have a chef recipe that someone wrote that deploys node apps. I have been reading a lot on chef but am still pretty foggy on the general concept on how one uses a cookbook or recipe in relation with their app, do you build some sort of configuration file with parameters that reference your app? and then execute a chef command to run a cookbook? All of this is very unclear to me.
