‹prev | My Chain | next›
After a brief hiatus, it is time to resurrect my chain. My first chain focused on moving my family's cooking blog (eeecooks.com) over to CouchDB (running on Sinatra).
My second chain will focus on being able to create and update recipes. I want to be able to simply create / update recipes (I can already do so though CouchDB's Futon interface), but I also want to make it easy for the rest of my family to perform updates. I hope this affords the opportunity to experiment with a Javascript testing framework or two, but my first chain had a life of its own. Who knows where this one will end up?
But first... I will upgrade to CouchDB 0.10 and Sinatra 1.0. I expect the latter to be relatively trivial, but the CouchDB upgrade to take some time—I was a bit lazy with my map-reduces, which I could get away with in 0.9. I also expect to return to using couchdb-lucene proper rather than my fork of it.
As with my first chain, my main focus will be on learning and improving my craft. In this chain incarnation, I will introduce iteration retrospectives to be performed every Tuesday. I found myself losing focus every now and again last time. Hopefully, the retrospectives will cure this. They should also allow me to better run / attend B'more on Rails functions.
Wish me luck!
