towerjs

I'm using MySQL for a Rails application and would like to be able to use this database for a Node.js app (in particular Tower.js). What is the most mature and/or performant driver available for this at the moment? Due to @ryan's excellent input below, I looked a bit more into Felix's node-mysql There is an absolutely EXCELLENT podcast here that's I'd highly recommend listening to if you're interested in a slight history and general discussion as to the options and if node-mysql path may be right for you: http://ia600804.us.archive.org/3/items/NodeupEleven/NodeupEleven.mp3 After giving that

Trying to get a basic site set up with TowerJS as a test, but ran into this error when running the scaffold generator. Macbook:app john$ tower generate scaffold Post title:string body:text belongsTo:user { [Error: Cannot find module 'coffee-script'] code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND' } module.js:340 throw err; ^ Error: Cannot find module '/Users/john/Sites/tower/app/app/config/shared/application' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:338:15) at Function.Module._load (module.js:280:25) at Module.require (module.js:362:17) at require (module.js:378:17) at Function.Tower.Application.Application

Again... selecting framework. I have stopped on these two TowerJS and RailwayJS, but it seams these are very similar and it is very difficult which way to choose Both are based on Express, both are RoR style frameworks... Which one is the most promising, which one will be more popular? Or maybe I'm already on the wrong way? Maybe I should choose other framework. I hate when there is so much frameworks to choose from, there is no industry standard to rely on, to be more or less sure that the framework will be developed in near couple years... Please help, need expert suggestion. Thanks Lance
