Djamolidine Abdujaparov is one of my childhood heroes. Here we have him crashing in the 1991 Tour De France.

I have modified Savage-Beast extensively to make it run as a rails engine under rails 2.3.x. I think that rails engines are suited to running forum systems. The modifications that I made seemed a bit aggressive (I removed internationalization) so decided a separate project was required.

I have named it Wee Beastie

Currently the install process is a bit long winded which I hope to tidy up soon, if you want to help feel free to fork and get involved.

Wee Beastie

Rewrite of SavageBeast to work with Rails 2.3.x as a rails engine.

Install

• script/plugin install git://github.com/pyrat/wee_beastie.git
• rake wee_beastie:sync_migrations
• rake wee_beastie:sync_public
• rake wee_beastie:install_plugins
• rake db:migrate
• config.cache_classes = true (environment.rb) – means restarts, sorry!
• config.active_record.default_timezone = :utc
• include WeeBeastie::UserInit to user model
• setup a user to have forum_admin attribute set to true to allow you to administer and setup the forums.

TODO

• Currently there is no out of the box way to create moderatorships. You need to add the create moderatorship links in your you administration.

Having replaced my exhaust system myself; I was recently in need of some parts manuals for gaskets etc.

I found some manuals strewn about the web and have decided to host the decent ones here. Hope this helps someone, gies a shout in the comments if it does!

The best part of man vs wild has to be the eating of manky stuff. Here we have Bear eating a giant larvae!

The gotcha comes when I switch branches back and forth between the “master” (no submodules, but with checked in source) and “dev” (where my submodule work is). Here’s what happens:

git checkout master

error: Untracked working tree file ‘vendor/plugins/acts_as_list/lib/active_record/acts/list.rb’ would be overwritten by merge.

Here’s a workaround…
To go back to a branch w/o submodules

rm -rf vendor/plugins
git checkout master
git checkout vendor/plugins

To go back to a branch w/ submodules

git checkout dev
git submodule update --init

Another gotcha, when I tried to merge dev into master I got “fatal: cannot read object… It is a submodule!” A solution is:

git merge -s  resolve
