Backbone.js & Rails

Backbone.js & Rails

Miscellaneous

We need to figure out how tight this integration between Rails & Backbone is going to be. Typically, Backbone handles all view rendering and most data transformations that are then sent via ajax to the Rails controllers that function more as APIs that serve data and less as heavy manipulators of data.

I'd like to hear from the guys working on the front-end (@deoates @zachferland @ryanlyma) as to how you're thinking about the Backbone component of the app and how we should start thinking about the two frameworks in tandem.

Also worth noting that whenever you pull the database.yml file down to your local machine, you'll have to change the host name to whatever role is defined on your computer for a Postgres user. I haven't been able to figure out why it can't be chucked in the .gitignore...

Here's a post but I'm not entirely sure I want to go through the effort...

It's not removing it when you throw it in the .gitignore because you
already put the file under version control (you can't go back ad ignore it
now). I'm removing the file and I'll push it out -- try pulling again. :)

Just pushed -- feel free to create your own database.yml file now (on your
local machine), now that the .gitignore has it, it won't fuck with everyone
else's copy of the project.
