This project includes
- a grape api server for an angular front-end.
- a static pages generator
- a mailchimp publication runner
- includes a limited cli. If you need a fully functionnal cli tool for mailchimp control checkout the mc gem
The need for Organews comes from the newsletter publication Green Ruby http://greenruby.org where the information management follows a specific set of constraints:
- there are modifications made by only one editor
- modifications are made once a week
- the html newsletter is sent via mailchimp
- a website keeps track of the archives
- the archives have to be searchable by article, tag, title, etc.
Currently the Greeen Ruby publication had one year of existence and 1300 links publiched, each with a small set of metadata. So the choice is to use an in-memory database, load everything at api server start. This is of course not a scalable choice but for the start it will do it. The use of the sequel gem anyways permits evolution later on.
Organews is designed to be used by https://github.com/greenruby/grn-static which holds all the content.
