Hi, I am working on a the largest rails project I have worked on before. It’s large in terms of how many different directions the application can flow, so there will be many different views. How are people using rails to do the workflow on larger projects?
It is getting too tedious in the controller to have code like:
if @result ==1
render :action => ‘page1’
elsif @result ==2
render :action => ‘otherpage’
else
render :action => ‘returnpage’
How are rails developers managing these kinds of flows?
I would appreciate any suggestions.

From reading about how rails works, it seems when you use page caching in a production environment, the rails stack is bypassed because apache/lighty will see the html file and serve that instead of dynamically generating the page. Is rails really totally bypassed? If so, how can the log files still record what pages where hit in the log directory if rails is totally bypassed?

This is a test!
