DrgCms

DRG CMS is advanced way of programming application for Ruby on Rails. Instead of creating controllers and views for each collection (table), DRG CMS introduces single Cmsedit controller. All CRUD database actions are controlled by DRG Forms file, which can have hundreds of data entry fields and still be easy to maintain and update.

DRG CMS uses MongoDB, leading NO-SQL document database, as database back-end with a help of mongoid gem. Mongoid's flexible document model defines all document fields, indexes, dependencies, validations in single model source file with no Rails migrations required. When collection model is defined, data entry DRG Form can easily be generated with form generator.

DRG CMS can be used for rapid development of complex, data-entry intensive web sites as well as building your private, in-house, Intranet applications. At the same time it can be used as CMS system with support for running multiple web sites on single Ruby on Rails instance.

DRG CMS has built-in user friendly role based database access system. Administrator defines roles and roles rights (no access, can read, can edit) as web site policies. Roles are then assigned to users and policies can be assigned to documents (web pages) or even parts of a document.

Project Tracking

Compatibility

DRG CMS is being actively developed since 2012 and has been live tested in production since beginning. It runs against latest technology Ruby (3.0), Rails (6.1) and MongoDB (4.4) and had so far little or no problems advancing to latest versions of required programs.
