Plugins - active_poll

StarAdd to favorites
It provides poll functionality in your Rails application. In particular, it allows you to define who can vote on the poll (anonymous users as well for logged users only or both). If the poll is oriented to logged users, it sits upon your user model to register the votes.
The main features of the plugin are described below:
  • Registers user votes in the database for logged in users.
  • Poll can be oriented to logged users, anonymous or both
  • Poll can be multiple options or single choice.
  • It can be defined an interval where the poll is rendered, outside that period it would render a view telling that the poll is outdated (you can customize this view as you need).
  • Unlimited number of polls can be used in the same Rails application
  • Refresh of views done via AJAX.
  • Don’t let users to vote more than once (for unauthenticated users we use cookies to track their votes)
  • All poll-related views are in individual .rhtml files, this allows you to show the results even if the user doesn’t vote.
  • It can be defined a view directory inside your Rails application where the plugin will lookup first to render the view (instead of the view directory inside the active_poll plugin).

This plugin largely doesn't work without significant internal changes. It's an OK starting point, code wise, but only deceptively works as plug and play and requires a lot of time to have it work as advertised. I'll release a new version when I'm done, but it'll be as an engine.
