Chimera is an object mapper for Riak and Redis. The idea is to mix the advantages of Riak (scalability, massive data storage) with Redis (atomicity, performance, data structures). You should store the bulk of your data in Riak, and then use Redis data structures where appropriate (for example, a counter or set of keys). Internally, Chimera uses Redis for any indexes you define as well as some default indexes that are automatically created. There's no built in sharding for Redis, but since it's only being used for key storage and basic data elements you should be able to go a long way with one Redis server (especially if you use the new Redis VM). !! Chimera is alpha. It's not production tested and needs a better test suite. !! !! It's also only tested in Ruby 1.9. !!

Build and deploy tools for Cocoa apps using Sparkle for distributions and upgrades; it’s like Hoe but for Cocoa apps. Package up your OS X/Cocoa applications into Custom DMGs, generate Sparkle XML, and upload. Instead of hours, its only 30 seconds to release each new version of an application. Build and deploy tools for Cocoa apps using Sparkle for distributions and upgrades; it's like Hoe but for Cocoa apps. The main feature is a powerful rake task "rake appcast" which builds a release of your application, creates a DMG package, generates a Sparkle XML file, and posts the package and XML file to your remote host via rsync. All rake tasks: rake build # Build Xcode Release rake dmg[automount] # Create the dmg file for appcasting (`rake dmg`, or `rake dmg[automount]` to automatically mount the dmg) rake feed # Create/update the appcast file rake upload # Upload the appcast file to the host rake version:bump:major # Bump the gemspec by a major version. rake version:bump:minor # Bump the gemspec by a minor version. rake version:bump:patch # Bump the gemspec by a patch version. rake version:current # Display the current version

http://github.com/sparkboxx/csv_importer Ever needed to import csv files where every row needs to be converted into a model? The CSV importer turns every row of a CSV file into an object. Each column is matched and tested against a given class. You can provide a dictionary with translations between the CSV column names and the object properties.

This is a packaged version of CSVScan, written by MoonWolf. If you can read Japanese, checkout README.ja for whatever he said.

YAML based deployment framework for your code.

Derailer is a small program built out of a peculiar need. It started as a script to publish content generated using a Ruby on Rails application without actually running the application on the server. An over-enthusiastic Rails developer once made a quick site for a friend using a database and Rails simply because it was easier than hand-coding anything else, but didn't really think about the number of resources it would consume. Thus, derailer was born.

CI::Reporter is an add-on to Test::Unit, RSpec and Cucumber that allows you to generate XML reports of your test, spec and/or feature runs. The resulting files can be read by a continuous integration system that understands Ant's JUnit report XML format, thus allowing your CI system to track test/spec successes and failures.

Apache Buildr is a build system for Java-based applications, including support for Scala, Groovy and a growing number of JVM languages and tools. We wanted something that's simple and intuitive to use, so we only need to tell it what to do, and it takes care of the rest. But also something we can easily extend for those one-off tasks, with a language that's a joy to use.
