This is the Rails tutorial basic blog app ported to use NoBrainer ORM for RethinkDB.

Note: this sample app is still under development.

NoBrainer ORM for RethinkDB

In order to benefit of as much of the Rails-packaged goodies, we're using the NoBrainer ORM for RethinkDB.

Using NoBrainer instead of ActiveRecord is very easy:

class Post
  include NoBrainer::Document
  include NoBrainer::Document::Timestamps

  # Defines the fields of the document visible to the application
  field :author,  :type => String, :required => true
  field :title,   :type => String, :required => true
  field :content, :type => Text,   :min_length => 5

  # Defines a one-to-many relationship between +Post+ and +Comment+
  has_many :comments, :dependent => :destroy
end

See the two models defined by this sample app for more details: post.rb and comment.rb

Accessing the data

You can check out the two controllers posts_controller.rb and comments_controller.rb to see how using the model methods translates into RethinkDB's ReQL queries.
