The document compares PHP and Ruby, and the web frameworks CakePHP and Ruby on Rails. It discusses the key features and differences between PHP and Ruby, and demonstrates how a simple blog application can be created from scratch in under a minute using Ruby on Rails with no coding required, compared to the additional coding needed in CakePHP. The document argues that Ruby on Rails is more productive and fully-featured compared to CakePHP.

Rails Vs CakePHP
- 1. PHP Vs Ruby CakePHP Vs Ruby On Rails Gautam Rege A brief debate between PHP and Ruby, CakePHP and Rails
- 2. About Me Gautam Rege Director @ Josh Software Pvt. Ltd. 9+ years software experience. Rubyist & Entrepreneur @gautamrege http://gautamrege.wordpress.com Josh Software Ruby On Rails, Ruby On Rails, Ruby On Rails Little bit of J2EE and .NET
- 3. Am I out of place?? What will you gain by listening in on the debate between 2 RAD frameworks? Is this about Rails propaganda? Do you have rotten tomatoes to throw? Don't throw shoes and make me famous! ;)
- 4. Ruby – Overview Object Oriented Scripting language. Classes, Objects, instance methods etc. Blocks (yield) Simple 'Duck Typing' using 'responds_to' Mixins Simplicity of single inheritance Power of multiple inhertitance Meta-programming !
- 5. Ruby On Rails - Overview Framework built in Ruby (obviously) MVC pattern RESTful ORM using ActiveRecord Inbuilt Caching Object Caching Query Caching Fragment Caching
- 6. What do we discuss now? PHP Vs Ruby CakePHP Vs Rails What is Ruby and Ruby On Rails?
- 7. PHP Vs Ruby Patched Obj. Oriented ?? Reflection & Meta-programing ?? ?? Extremely Popular ! Tons of people Pure Object Oriented Easy to read !! Inherent reflection & meta-programing use Code blocks Gaining popularity Small community
- 8. TIOBE Programing Community Index – Jan 2010
- 9. Relative Language Popularity over 5, 10, 25 years
- 11. CakePHP Vs Ruby On Rails CakePHP has been inspired by Ruby On Rails. Modeling, Routing is similar IDEAL for PHP programmers who Do not have a choice but to use PHP Do not want to learn a new language. Why not try the real thing?

- 13. CakePHP Vs Ruby On Rails AppController AppController set() method to access data from controller in a view. ?? html AJAX $ajax->link ActionController ActionView Instance Variables in controller 'magically' available in views. responds_to? | format | html, xml, json, js AJAX link_to_remote
- 14. What I found missing in CakePHP aka – Rails rocks! ;) Migrations are missing or not not recommended. Even the tutorials do not use migrations but raw SQL. No mention of deployment. Guess its a standard Apache + mod_php setup. Use of associative arrays instead of objects $user['user']['first_name'] instead of @user.first_name
- 15. What I found missing in CakePHP aka – Rails rocks ! ;) No support for RESTful routes map.resources :users Provides CRUD for User model /users ( GET | POST ) /users/:id ( GET | DELETE) /users/:id/edit (PUT)
- 16. What I found missing in CakePHP aka – Rails rocks ! ;) There is still a lot of code visible. Lot of configuration Lot of coding / views etc. etc. DEMONSTRATION of the Rails way ??
- 17. Demonstration - Blog Create a web application for blog posts. A post has a Title and some body text. A post may be published optionally. We should be able to create a post. We should be able to edit a post. We should be able to delete a post. We should be able to list all posts. All information should be stored in database.
- 18. Time and Effort Estimate How much TIME would you take for this? How many LINES OF CODE would you write? Modules: Database configuration Database Schema Logic for posts HTML design Testing
- 19. Ruby On Rails I hereby promise that we shall develop the blog application WITHOUT TYPING A SINGLE LINE OF CODE in 1 MINUTE.
- 20. Steps Create a rails project Create the “post” scaffold Update the database Start the server Test it out Create a post Edit a post
- 21. Steps Create a rails project Create the “post” scaffold Update the database Start the server Test it out Create a post Edit a post
- 22. Steps Create a rails project Create the “post” scaffold Update the database Start the server Test it out Create a post Edit a post
- 23. Steps Create a rails project Create the “post” scaffold Update the database Start the server Test it out Create a post Edit a post
- 24. Steps Create a rails project Create the “post” scaffold Update the database Start the server Test it out Create a post Edit a post
- 25. Satisfied? Are we ever satisfied? NOW lets add some fancy stuff to this. Lets add some validation A post cannot be created without a title. NOW we do a little bit of coding !!
- 26. Satisfied NOW?? No? Alright! Now you are becoming a programmer! Lets add some UI styles to make it look better Some more 'coding' here!
- 27. Thank You! - Shoot me? (with questions only please)
