Design Question

Hi,

I am building an app that contains a mix of functionality that will be accessed via the browser and a range of backend processes that I envisage will be run with script\runner.

I am puzzled where to put code for the background processes - the background process touch a variety of models and do not require any views.

Any suggestions where to put these miscellaneous classes.

Cheers

James

Either put them in the lib folder, or in the model folder and don't inherit ActiveRecord::Base.

BTW that's the meaning of Model View Controller. The Model is just a bunch of objects. Some persist (in a database) and some don't.
