copied!<p>Sorry to be negative. This doesn't sound like a good idea to me. </p> <blockquote> <p>I'll feel more confortable, it'll be easier to maintain later for me and I can reuse it in other Ruby/Rails apps. </p> </blockquote> <p>I seriously doubt that. It will probably be more difficult to maintain/reuse in the future because of the extra code you will need to write to "integrate" Drupal and Ruby. The more the code, the more the likelihood of bugs. I'm assuming you're going to link the two together using REST/webservices/similar technology -- if that is the case you are writing so much extra code! Gluing the front end elements (which have to be in Drupal) with the functional elements (probably in Ruby) justs sounds so complicated to me. </p> <p>I'm guessing its only you who is going to be maintaining the code. What if its someone else? Will you easily be able to find someone who has two skill sets (Ruby + Drupal) in your area/budget? </p> <p>What about giving back to the Drupal community? If your code becomes something useful and its this big mess of Drupal + Ruby you really can't put it up on Drupal.org for others to build, improve and test. </p> <p>I suggest two options</p> <ol> <li>Use Drupal only. </li> <li>Sounds like you're in love with Ruby or at any rate just too used to it. In that case: Find a Ruby based CMS! (Sorry I don't know any!)</li> </ol> <p>To me its a classic dilemma: Should you do Drupal Custom Module development which will mean more short term pain cause you'll be out of your comfort zone.... or should you integrate Ruby + Drupal which will be easier in the short run but very painful in the long. </p> <p>I would choose short term pain :-)</p>
