Ruby on Rails open source Social App on GitHub [closed]

Question

I am starting with Ruby on Rails, finishing the tutorials on railstutorials.org. I would like to start to evolve trying to code something related to social behaviours, and i was wondering if someone on here knows any open source already done project on GitHub related to the next characteristics:

• users that post their 'profile' (name, photo, memo, etc) as resources
• users that sign up to be 'friends' of the users that post resources
• sign up process by email/pass
• using connectors (OATH2) for facebook or twitter to sign up

i know that RoR already offers all the framework needed to build this characteristics, but i would like to study a real project already done, because there are lots of knowledge that cant be learn though tutorials, like Design database Models.

thank you very much for your support and time

Answer 1

Rails3: https://github.com/ging/social_stream "Social Stream, a core for building social network websites." Very current, being maintained today. Generator approach that I like.

Rails2: https://github.com/insoshi/insoshi Older and not being actively maintained.

Answer 2

You may want to have a look at Diaspora (probably a bit too much to start with), Authlogic, OmniAuth, Koala and the like - plus possible related Railscasts to walk you through it. Good luck and have fun :)
