[OoR] Ruby Object Mapper

[gagan...@desiringgod.org]

Hey guys, 

I recently subscribed to this group in order to get ideas on growing our Rails app beyond Rails' MVC.  I am very curious on getting you guys' thoughts on the Ruby Object Mapper project which implements the DataMapper pattern in ruby along with a cluster of other supporting gems. https://github.com/rom-rb. 

Coming from experiencing a lot of pain caused by overuse /incorrect use  of ActiveRecord, I wonder if I am naively overexcited about it. Have you guys used it? Are you excited about it? Do you think it will help develop better apps in Rails ?

I’m using it for a project right now and am impressed. There is a learning curve but I think it is worth getting excited about. I’m pinching myself that I have the degree of separation of concerns that I do while working in Ruby!

Note that I am not using rom-rails but am keeping all my ROM code in separate gems in our CBRA-style app. So I don’t have comments about rom-rails…I don’t like that it presently continues organizing the code by “type of file”…app/commands, app/relations, etc.
