Hello

I am looking into Netbeans for developing Ruby on Rails apps.

Presently, I am comparing Netbeans with RubyMine IDE for Ruby on Rails.

I would like to know if Netbeans supports the following features which are found in Rubymine

1). Model Dependency Diagram for Ruby
Model Dependency diagram displays all project models with their attributes and associations. It allows taking an overview on project structure and navigating to the needed code.

* You can quickly navigate from diagram to a model or an association.
* Navigate to the model's Controller, Helper or Test using the quick
Navigate to Rails option.


Here is a demo of its working in Rubymine:
http://www.jetbrains.com/ruby/demos/rubymine_model_diagram.mov

If the feature is not present in Netbeans, can it be added ?


--------------

2). Also, does Netbeans have the following feature:
Navigation between model, controller, helper, unit/functional/RSpec tests (Alt-Shift-N)





---------------


3).
Rails code generation
# Automated generation of Rails skeleton applications
# Advanced tools for developing Rails generators, models, etc
# Quick insert action in action controller

There isn't anything like this available in NB, unfortunately. However,
there are some IDE independent tools for generating diagrams from Rails
apps, googling for "Rails diagrams" gives a couple of options. Obviously
with an external tool you wouldn't be able to navigate to the sources
within in the IDE though.

Not exactly the same, but you can navigate between a class and its test
with Ctrl-Shift-T and between a controller and view with Ctrl-Shift-A.

Rails code generation

Yes, in NB this builds on the top of the generator Rails provides
out-of-the-box. You just need to create a new Rails project using the
IDE wizard.

There is a GUI for Rails generators -- it's the Generate... action in
the project context menu, or Alt-Ins in a source file of a Rails project.

# Quick insert action in action controller


I don't think we have this in NB.

Cheers,
Erno

Thanks for the clarification , Erno.

Is there any plans on implementing Model Dependancy diagram feature in Netbeans ?

Not right now, but possibly in the future if it is something that people
want (of course, most of the time everybody wants everything, so read
that "want more than other possible new features").

Let us know if you have any other questions on RubyMine vs. NetBeans or
anything else. You might want to have a look at
http://wiki.netbeans.org/Ruby in addition to netbeans.org for an
overview of the features we have in NB.

Perfectly understandable .

Thanks for the link to the Ruby Wiki.

Where is the RubyMine vs Netbeans thread ?
