I think this is a bit of an overreaction given that Rails has always been a "batteries included" framework. The fact that Rails allows for socket-like behaviour now is not a tipping point, but simply a nice little feature that may prove useful to some.
When Rails starts including a messaging stack, job server, and more, then I'd be right behind you in your complaint.
- adriand 14y ago> When Rails starts including a messaging stack, job server, and more, then I'd be right behind you in your complaint. Actually, Rails 4 does include a job queue: https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/adff4a706a5d7ad18ef05303461e1a0d848bd662 https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/adff4a706a5d7ad18ef053... However, I'm not complaining. ;)
- FooBarWidget 14y agoWell to be more accurate: it includes a job queue API with the actual implementation being pluggable. It does not do job queuing by itself. It's just like the cache API, actual implementation depends on the cache store.
- adriand 14y agoTrue, thanks for the correction. The person I responded to said "job server" and I'm not 100% clear on what that would cover - perhaps job queue API would fit that description, perhaps it wouldn't.
