TagsDoneRight

TagsDoneRight is an acts_as_taggable plugin, that puts the tags in a separate database. This approach allows you to have a proper database schema, with minimal effort to allow tagging.

Example

First install TagsDoneRight, please ensure the install-script is called.

As an example, we'll create a system to store books, and allow tags to be placed on them.

script/generate scaffold book name:string comment:text script/generate tagsupport book

Now you can use the methods book.tag_names=( string, separator ) to set new tags (tags are parsed through the separator and the individual fields are trimmed. You can use book.tag_names to get a string containing all the tag-names. This means you can use book.tag_names in forms for the book, which will transparantly handle the tags.

Support for useful tagging features is coming sometime later (tag clouds etc).
