== Welcome to the Ehcache for Rails demo

This is a simple demo application demonstrating the use of Ehcache in a Rails 3
environment.  This demo requires JRuby 1.5.0 or later.

== Starting the demo

To start the demo, make sure you are using JRuby 1.5.0 or later.

The demo uses sqlite3 which needs to be installed on your OS (it is by default on Mac OS X).

There is a Gemfile which will pull down all of the required Ruby dependencies using Bundler.

From the ehcache-rails-demo directory:


   jgem install bundler
   jruby -S bundle install



You can start the demo application with the following command:

$ jruby -S rails server -e production

== Exploring the demo

To use the demo application, open a web browser to the following URL:

http://localhost:3000/cache/index

This will display a simple screen allowing you to manipulate cached values
either through the Ehcache API directly, or through the Rails.cache API backed
by Ehcache.
