Recommended rails setup?

[Pawel Szymczykowski]

Hi all,

It's been a little while since I've done rails programming and I'm
just getting back into recently with rails 3.0, so this might seem
like a bit of a dumb question.. what's the recommended way to bold
simplerecord onto a rails install?

I've gotten the non-rails standalone version to work just fine. But in
a rails install:

- Do I put SimpleRecord.establish_connection somewhere into
environment.rb? A before_filter?

- I assume it doesn't use database.yml at all?

Just a bit confused about it. In the Rails second of the docs it said
something like 'All you have to do is..' making it seem like I might
not need to call establish_connection after all. Putting it in
environment.rb seems like it might open an SDB connection once at the
start of the app. :/

Thanks for you help!

Ya, put it in one of your environment files, if you use different keys for different environments, put them in the separate ones (developer, production, etc), otherwise in application.rb.

Cool - I'm glad I wasn't too far off. I ended up sticking it into
intializers/simple_record.rb and seems to work like a charm. :)

if you're using it as a plugin, a reminder to put it at the very end
of environment.rb or else Rails won't see it.
