Edit

OpenSteam v1.0.0 on its way !!

_2008-12-22

Yesterday we released the first release-candidate for opensteam-1.0.0. It's currently labeled v0.9.4 and if all tests run fine we'll package a new gem version soon.

The new opensteam version features a brand new admin backend with ExtJS integration.

Our main source repository moved over to github.com. If you want to test the latest version, feel free to clone the master branch:

git clone git://github.com/opensteam/opensteam

Since opensteam uses some excellent rails plugins, make sure to initialize them as git submodules:

git submodule init
git submodule update

If you have question andor problems, contact us at github.

So long and merry christmas, the opensteam-developers.

OpenSteam v0.9.1 released!

We're pleased to announce the new openSteam release, v0.9.1!

The new version of the web-based shopping framework for RubyOnRails introduces many new features such as:

Rails 2.1 compatible
create Invoices and Shipments for an Order and even for Order-Items
mark an Order, an Invoice or a Shipment as 'pending' or 'finished'. Or even create your own states and state-specific logic using modules.
a whole new Admin-Backend (overview and process orders, manage admins and/or customers, etc)
sortable and searchable tables in the admin-backend
a simple search form, finally!

See the CHANGELOG for more information on what we've done.

You can easily install opensteam by typing gem install opensteam. Or, if you already have it installed, type gem update.
