Plugins - Spraypaint
Add to favoritesSpraypaint (yet another rails tagging plugin)
Spraypaint is a plugin for rails adding tagging capabilities to model classes, written by Tom Ward (tom@popdog.net). It’s by no means the only rails tagging plugin, so if it doesn’t meet your needs, why not check on of these out:
- acts_as_taggable_on_steroids[http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/acts_as_taggable_on_steroids]
- acts_as_taggable[http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/acts_as_taggable]
- acts_as_taggable_redux[http://agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/acts_as_taggable_redux]
The main goals of Spraypaint are:
- To make manipulation of tags as easy as possible - just use arrays and strings
- To allow searches by tag alongside standard rails finder options
- To provide easy access to interesting tagging data, including tag clouds, tags related to other tags, models related by tag and more
- To create efficient SQL where possible
- To provide very basic support for machine tags
