Getting Started with Sinatra

In an earlier video we took a look at Rack to build incredibly lightweight web applications with Ruby. Rack's toolkit allowed us to quickly throw to get a working application, but we did have to put a little effort into it once we wanted to build something a little more complex.

Sometimes you want a fast and simple framework for building a simple web application. Perhaps you only need to respond to a handful of routes, or you want the response time for a small part of a bigger application to be lighting fast. The Sinatra framework is made for just these moments.

Today let's take a quick look at this framework and see how quickly we can build lightweight web applications.

To get started we first need to install the Sinatra gem:

gem install sinatra

Sample config/database.yml from Rails. Postgres, MySQL, and SQLite
#
# Install the MYSQL driver
# gem install mysql2
#
# Ensure the MySQL gem is defined in your Gemfile
# gem 'mysql2'

# And be sure to use new-style password hashing:

Support for PostgreSQL `interval` type in Rails 4. Although ActiveRecord supports `interval` by default, it turns it into a string (and tells Postgres the column is type string, too). This means you don't get any proper interval goodness. By sticking this code into an initialiser, ActiveRecord will create proper `interval` column types in Postgr…
#
# This will force ActiveRecord to create proper `interval` column types in PostgreSQL
#
# def change
# add_column :leases, :period, :interval
# end
#
# This applies to a generated `schema.rb` file too.
#
# No special OID type is applied to an `interval` type. Rails will treat it as a string, although
