moebooru again

Last week I posted about my random project which involves modernizing moebooru without doing complete rewrite (see this for yet another complete rewrite attempt).

Let’s revisit the plan:

  • Upgrade to Ruby 1.9: done, need testing.
  • Update all plugins: mostly done, can use some trimming.
  • Update anything deprecated: nope
  • Migrate to Bundler: done, not sure how to test.
  • Use RMagick instead of custom ruby-gd plugin: nope
  • Use RMagick instead of calling jhead binary: nope
  • And more!: I hope you didn’t expect me to do more while there are incomplete items above.

Sure looks good. Need more testing though. There’s also one part which I totally had no idea why should be changed when upgrading to 1.9. Just grep for FIXME to see which it is and hopefully fix it up for me (or explain what it does).

As usual, having completed the work for today, live demo is up and open for everyone to break (…if there’s anyone, that is).

An Attempt to Update moebooru Engine

If you didn’t know, the current moebooru running on oreno.imouto is using ancient version of many things. It also uses a custom lighty module (mod_zipfile) which doesn’t seem to be available anywhere.

I’ve updated it with latest Rails 2.x and made it compatible with nginx. Mostly. You can see it running here.

The plans:

  • Upgrade to Ruby 1.9.
  • Update all plugins.
  • Update anything deprecated.
  • Migrate to Bundler.
  • Use RMagick instead of custom ruby-gd plugin.
  • Use RMagick instead of calling jhead binary.
  • And more!

We’ll see if I can actually finish this one. Grab the source here. Yeah, I’m using Mercurial for a Rails project.
