[10:12] <gbenedict> Good morning
[10:13] <gbenedict> Anyone know how to get the session.session_id in Rails 2.3.x without setting a value to load it first?
[10:13] <gbenedict> example
[10:13] <gbenedict> I have to do session[:ordering] = true; session.session_id

[13:42] <szselim> baldwindavid: I've already forgotten who is speaking/what's happening next week.
[13:46] <Unixmonkey> I think we're supposed to give Thirdshift a hard time
[13:51] <davidray> I'm sposed to talk
[13:56] <szselim> Oh yeah!
[13:57] <szselim> Cool. So, Unixmonkey, you're recapping both Windy City and Hoedown, right? ;-)
[13:57] * szselim is now known as mileszs
[14:10] <baldwindavid> gbenedict: did you want to demo your cms thing?
[14:11] <gbenedict> I might have a shipping API ready to go.
[14:11] <gbenedict> http://github.com/tgfi/freightquote
[14:13] <gbenedict> might be cool to walk through it and let you guys cut me down
[14:13] <gbenedict> kind of like the start up camp.
[14:14] <baldwindavid> looks cool - I'm good with that
[14:14] <baldwindavid> Didn't you mention something about talking about dynamic routing in a CMS awhile back?
[14:14] * esquivalient (n=esquival@67.177.188.169) Quit ("Leaving...")
[14:16] <gbenedict> yeah. I can walk through that.
[14:16] <gbenedict> actually do a same app.
[14:16] <gbenedict> sample
[14:17] <baldwindavid> that would be great
[14:17] <baldwindavid> are you doing anything with subdomains?
[14:21] <gbenedict> I am not, but you can do that with subdomain fu
[14:22] <baldwindavid> Yeah, I'm trying to point to give people the ability to point to wildcard subdomains on Heroku
[14:23] <baldwindavid> wtf did I just write?
[14:24] <baldwindavid> Anyway, I've got a domain name...let's say "example.com" - I can make it a wildcard domain on Heroku by adding *.example.com
[14:25] <baldwindavid> I then want people to be able to have a subdomain such as "mycompany.example.com", but be able to point their domain name ("mycompany.com") to that subdomain
[14:26] <baldwindavid> However, it doesn't work how I would like with Heroku
[14:27] <baldwindavid> I can just add their domain names (mycompany.com & www.mycompany.com) to my app as custom domains...
[14:28] <baldwindavid> but at that point the whole subdomain thing is not really necessary given I will need to query the root domain anyway
[14:29] <gbenedict> and given their load balancing setup, I'm not sure it will
[14:29] <gbenedict> although, you can run SSL, so maybe?
[14:30] <baldwindavid> Would be nice if I could have a CNAME like... www => mycompany.example.com ....but instead it is to "proxy.heroku.com"
[14:30] <baldwindavid> I guess it's still workable
[14:31] <gbenedict> cname only happens on the dns side. It still passes the original domain name to the server farm.
[14:31] <baldwindavid> So I guess the question would be: Do I map everything the same way I would with a true subdomain setup for clarity?
[14:31] <gbenedict> you might be able to automate it with a job.
[14:32] <baldwindavid> within my Rails application I mean
[14:33] <baldwindavid> I'm thinking I might in case I end up changing hosts - I'm also messing with Webbynode...but Heroku is so fast and easy
[14:33] <gbenedict> you probably map a domain to a subdomain, then use subdomain_fu?
[14:35] <baldwindavid> yeah, I thought that may be the way to go

[15:07] <mileszs> Cool! I'm sorry I wasn't paying attention when all of this happened. I'm stoked about the meeting, though.
