I am considering starting up a community-funded project that is aimed at exploring software development methodologies and practices through the lens of evidence-based scientific studies. The purpose of this project would be to design, conduct, and report on real world experiments that attempt to answer questions that are relevant to everyday programmers.

This project would be subscriber-supported, but would follow a completely open publication model.

Subscribers would pay a small fee (maybe $5 to $10/month) and get all of the following benefits:

• A monthly progress report summarizing all interesting activity on the project
• Opportunities to read early drafts of articles
• Opportunities to participate in pilot sessions for studies
• Access to a members-only mailing list to discuss research activities with other supporters and with the project's maintainers.

Sinatra like routes in Rails controllers

A proof of concept of having Sinatra like routes inside your controllers.

How to use

Since the router is gone, feel free to remove config/routes.rb. Then add the file below to lib/action_controller/inline_routes.rb inside your app.

caius

def output name=((default=true); "caius")
  puts "name: #{name.inspect}"
  puts "default: #{default.inspect}"
end

output
# >> name: "caius"
# >> default: true

output "avdi"
