50% less code with resources_controller
October 16th, 2007
Jason Lee of Big First Name just posted his experiences of using resources_controller on the google group.
He writes:
I've just converted one my existing apps ( http://big.first.name ) to using the resources_controller plugin and thought I'd share some results with the group...
before RC, the output of "rake stats"...
+---------------+-------+-------+---------+--------- | Name | Lines | LOC | Classes | Methods | Controllers | 1785 | 1324 | 20 | 112
after RC conversion (with only minor refactoring)...
+---------------+-------+-------+---------+--------- | Name | Lines | LOC | Classes | Methods | Controllers | 877 | 655 | 20 | 45
That's 50% less code and 60% less methods. I've still got some chunky controller code lying around but overall I'm very happy with the result.
That's cool!
