4 comments Created 6 months ago by technicalpicklesresearch better ways to manage cron jobsrubyxIt's a real pain right now. Usually it involves:
- Making some class method to call
- Adding a rake task to call it
- ssh'ing to production
- running crontab -e, and adding a new entry
Ideally, we'd be able to manage this inside the app, and have deploying handle the rest.
There are some tools out there, but may not be a full solution: crondle and cronedit

I've used 'whenever' on a different project with much success, so I would probably go with that.
Something's still going on with the blog posts cron job - they haven't been updated in a while. Tweets seem fine.

There was a stale lockfile for the blogs task. Should be good now.

Wait until we have a clear standard (Blue Ridge v. functional tests v. Cucumber) for testing Javascript/Ajax.
Where is this graphic going to be used? I added myself to a company locally, can't find anywhere to remove myself.
could it possibly work as just link text?

Should they actually be deleted, or just never shown? I think it's kind of interesting to have around for posterity.

1 comment Created 6 months ago by dancroakbehaviorxqualityxrefactoringxLocation model?rubyxWe have location now in events & presentations & jobs.
I think it makes sense to extract this out into a Location model.
The only effect on the interface will be a nice autocomplete of "location" fields. Those forms will now submit using a Presenter (potentially creating two records: jobs & locations).

So I don't have to do 8 clicks to find out what the "recurring
schedule" looks like. Now that I'm a member I know it's one per week,
on Tuesdays. But that's not obvious at all to newbies. Equally good
would be a line for each saying "1st Tuesday of the month," "2nd
Tuesday of the month," &c.

Take a look at chronic: http://chronic.rubyforge.org/
It supports dates like: 3rd wednesday in november (although, it seems to not be able to add a time to this).
Maybe we could use a combination of chronic with a user specified time. User enters the plain english for the date, along with the time. It gets normalized to a date and persisted. When viewing the event, you'd might be able to see both the plain english description, in addition to a numeric date.

I don't particularly like the idea of an automated daily email to the mailing list. It'd get kind of repetitive after awhile, and wouldn't be easily opted out of. This is the kind of thing that would make sense as a feed.
Daily to the RSS and @bostonrb Twitter feed?
I'm fine with a daily atom/rss feed, but I'm not a fan of automated tweets like that.
Why?
Because it takes away from the 'human' factor of a twitter account. If I go to an person's twitter, and see similarly named posts, as if it was being automatically posted or something, I'm generally less interested.
I hear that. I'd say the @bostonrb account is very human right now. How about "Featured Job Monday", "Featured Project Wednesday", "Featured User Friday"? Only 3 tweets a week, interspersed with 3 humans or more adding their humanness.
