Rails/Informix is an ActiveRecord adapter to bring O/RM to IBM Informix Dynamic Server.
Installation instructions:
Copy the file informix_adapter.rb into the directory:
$RUBYLIB/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-*/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/
where RUBYLIB is probably /usr/local/lib/ruby in Unix, and C:rubylibruby in Windows.
After that edit:
$RUBYLIB/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-*/lib/active_record.rb
and modify the line with RAILS_CONNECTION_ADAPTERS to look like this:
RAILS_CONNECTION_ADAPTERS = %w( mysql postgresql sqlite firebird sqlserver db2 oracle sybase openbase informix)
Rails configuration:
The adapter has three options: database, user and password, with only database being mandatory. A database.yml file would look like this:
development:
adapter: informix
database: stores
If no user and password are specified, the user running the web server is used.
