[BioRuby] combination bioruby and rails

[jan aerts (RI)]

Hi all,

Has anyone tried to integrate bioruby with rails? I noticed that there's a rails module in bio/shell, but couldn't get it working.
How straightforward would it be to implement a BioSQL-based database with a rails interface? A feature of the web-interface could then be that sequences would be displayed graphically (with features annotated; using SVG?), and that the user could run remote BLASTs right from within the sequence viewer... or something.

Anyone know of any bioruby/rails implementations?
