Database Migrations

what should I do when not using rails

Keeping track of database changes over time is best done using database migrations stored in a code repository. I'm working on something where programs in different languages will be access the same database, so here we are going to look at 3 different solutions to track changes that aren't tied to a specific framework. We're going to setup a postgres database – with pgadmin so we can see what's going on – and then do the same execersizes with 3 different ways to manage changes.

Specifically, it doesn’t. I needed something that could do both. Code to use form encoding or JSON blob This first tries and loads the parameters using the normal form encoding methods.

Adding search to a middleman blog

slightly simplier than google

Building the index When you typed in something in google, it doesn’t then go and hit every page on the internet to check to see if there’s a match. It doesn’t even look at every page that it has squirreled away somewhere in the googleplex.
