Forbidden Fruit: A Test of Ruby's Parse Tree
summary
Demonstrates extracting actual Ruby code from blocks using ruby2ruby to turn procs into strings, and using ParseTree S-expressions to translate blocks into SQL via an ambition adapter that plugs into ActiveRecord; shows a working one-night tool called Saki for packaging and installing single Rake tasks from web pages, and a small distributed dmap example that evals blocks on ring servers. Notes a hard limitation: ParseTree does not survive MRI 1.9, so use ruby_parser or other alternatives.
