Flex RubyAMF Screencasts

Filed under: Flash, Flash Remoting, Flex, Ruby on Rails Alastair @ 9:25 am

There are some new RubyAMF screencasts up, Aaron Smith walks you through tutorials on…

Flex with stand-alone RubyAMF
Flex with the RubyAMF Rails plug-in
Flash and authentication
Flash and custom fault objects

RubyAMF is also now 1.2 with respond_to functionality, so you can use one controller action to return anything your heart desires RHTML, AMF, XML, JSON you name it.

def MyController < ActionController::Base
  def list
    respond_to do |format|
     format.amf { render :amf => User.find(:all) }
    end
  end
end

Of course AMF is teh bestest :)

  2. Also remember to register the mime type; put this in environment.rb:
    Mime::Type.register “application/x-amf”, :amf

  5. […] Yee-haw! By using the powers of RubyAMF we have just grabbed data from a database and written some right back at speeds much faster than XML or JSON. Plus, we still get a HTML front end for those types that fear flash. […]
