Ruby on Rails Sunday, July 28, 2013

Hi, everyone!

It has been a while since I posted here, given that I get to find most
of my answers on google. However, there is one particular coding
practice I am after, for which I have thought of a solution, as well as
found the exact same solution for .Net.

Basically, I am working with a blog post model, where I sometimes need
to spread a post into several pages. There are two ways I can think of.
Create a model Post with a content field, and in the content field we
add some tag that signals the page breaks, something similar to what
wordpress uses. I would then have to write some code to split the
content into several pages, and create the pagination code as well. The
second alternative is to create a post model, and a pages model. The
post model would have many pages, and the pages would belong to the post
model. I can sort of see the advantages and disadvantages of both
models, and to be honest, I would prefer the solution where I have a
post model and a page model. But, given that I want to follow best
practices, I was wondering what you guys have been using to sort this
multi-page issue.

Could someone share his experience in this area?

I look forward to hearing from you guys.

Regards,

Fidel.
