I’m pretty much a newbe when it comes to rails, but I’m learning fast. I’ve bought both the hard copy and pdf of the Ruport Book. (still waiting for the hard copy in the mail)
Anyhow, I’m getting along pretty well using my one database and building some html reports in Rails. I’m getting to the point of wanting to apply format and maybe build my own html formatter. That is were my understanding breaks down. I read the examples but I don’t understand how to relate that to actual code in a rails app. This is where I would really like to walk through the example code in the book. The problem is that I see several modules in the example code, but don’t know what to do with them. I was kind of expecting to see a standard rails directory structure, where I could simply run ./script/server and I’d have an examples up and running.
So, this gets me to my question. What do I do with the example modules to get them functional in a rails application?
Thanks for the help, and I hope I don’t come across a too much of an idiot.
