I am trying to create multiple applications that perform different
processes on our servers. The important aspect is that I want to
somehow put into a session or configuration file data from all of these
applications so we can manage the sessions from one place.
Example if XML:
user1 pass1 false true user2 pass2 false trueI have also tried this:
<conf.rb>
if $CURRPROC == ‘test1’
@conf = {
‘id’ => ‘test1’,
‘user’ => ‘user1’,
‘pass’ => ‘pass1’,
‘err’ => ‘false’
}
end
if $CURRPROC == ‘test2’
@conf = {
‘id’ => ‘test2’,
‘user’ => ‘user2’,
‘pass’ => ‘pass2’,
‘err’ => ‘false’
}
end
<app.rb>
$CURRPROC = ‘test1’
require ‘config.rb’
puts @conf[‘id’]
puts @conf[‘log’]
This seems to work to read, but I am not sure if this is what I should
be doing because it seems hard to change a single value and write it
back out to the file. In this case, if an error occurred during
processing, I want to change the ‘err’ value to ‘true’ so that future
processing could take that into account when that process was run. I’ve
just had a heck of at time getting to parse XML and read/write
correctly, or getting the ruby code to save easily with small changes.
Other examples I looked up are good for a single configuration file for
a single application, but I am trying to have a central configuration
file for multiple applications. Any suggestions are appreciated of
course.
