tantaman / basecamp2redmine.rb
Created April 4, 2013 15:39 — forked from tedb/basecamp2redmine.rb
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# This Ruby script will extract data from a Basecamp "backup" XML file and import
# it into Redmine.
#
# You must install the Nokogiri gem, which is an XML parser: sudo gem install nokogiri
#
# This script is a "code generator", in that it writes a new Ruby script to STDOUT.
# This script contains invocations of Redmine's ActiveRecord models. The resulting
# "import script" can be edited before being executed, if desired.

Its simple to make backbonejs (and other items) amd modules when you can make assumptions about your execution environment. Assumptions here: jQuer, define, _ are in the global scope. No need for commonjs support.
