Out of box solution for subscription-based content platform?

0 votes
161 views

I've been developing in rails for a bit, and technically could integrate braintree or a similar payment processor with a rails app that also handles registration and has separate membership / roles attributes...
But hopefully there's an already built in solution to just test a minimal viable product?
Features needed:
1) Connect with Amazon web services to handle storage / streaming of files.
2) User registration with recurring subscription and self-subscribe / management
3) Paygate functionality that controls access to certain pages / content and has easy freemium tier management / settings.

Does anything out there exist - free or paid - that can do the basics of what I want? I'm looking for something similar to what wordpress has with s2member.

Have you seen the Rails Composer project, and the sample sites built with it http://railsapps.github.io ? There's a recurring payment system version in there, ready to go.

I have a rails application, in which I am using delayed_job_active_record gem for running background jobs. While using the method .delay with an object, I am getting the following mysql error:

"INCORRECT STRING VALUE: \'XE2X9CX93"X0A ...\' FOR COLUMN \'HANDLER\' AT ROW 1"

I already searched for the above error and found that its because of the difference in encoding in mysql and rails. The solution suggested by many programmers is to alter the encoding in mysql database to utf8. But I also read that MySQL's utf8 charset only partially implements proper UTF-8 encoding. It can only store UTF-8-encoded symbols that consist of one to three bytes; encoded symbols that take up four bytes aren't supported. Which might cause trouble in some other cases. Also, when I tried to insert the value directly in mysql, it worked like a charm. Suggesting that the issue might lie elsewhere. So, can anyone please suggest the right method to rectify this problem?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I need to display some charts/graphs based upon user inputs on my web application built using Ruby on Rails.
Are there any charting libraries out there that I could use with ROR for displaying simple bar, line and pie graphs?

I have a question regarding where to start with a particular app I'm building. Hoping someone can set me on the right path. The scenario is pretty straight forward.
This is the hierarchy of info:
StatesTowns
Each state has many Towns Each town has the following pages associated with it.

* profile
* geography
* population
* demographics
* leaders
* budget
* history
* recycling
* maps

Part of my issue, due to lack of experience, is really where to start. I'm trying to learn what I should be doing first when starting a new project. I'm not sure exactly what should be models. I think my biggest confusion, is how to handle the subpages. I want the RESTful urls to be www.example.com/state/town/profile/geography and so on.
