OpalRb with MeteorJS?


I have been intrigued by the power and elegance that Opal offers in the way of using pure Ruby vs CoffeeScript or, of course, JS.

How would one go about leveraging Opal for Meteor as the primary language for development?

UPDATE: just wanted to share that we have shifted focus over to Volt for our realtime needs in an isomorphic environment that offers Ruby from bottom to top. It has been a fantastic experience and even Matz has tweeted about it a few times now.


Solution

  • I just released an initial version.

    This will compile Ruby files to Javascript, but there is nothing meteor specific (yet).

    I plan on porting Meteor to a Ruby class at some point, stay tuned or even better submit pull requests...
