[Rails] Re: Just can't get Ruby on Rails to work in Leopard

2009-04-05 Thread Daniel Drehmer

When I installed here, making rails work with mysql was painful too..

I tryed to install and re-install both the gem and mysql for about
9000 times, using several different giant terminal commands

Could only make it work after installing a 32-bit version of mysql and
downloading the gem using macports, which gave an error in the
installation, but actually worked when I tested.

[Rails] Wizard like data entry

2009-04-05 Thread Indu RS

Hello after having searched the forums I couldn't find any solution to
this problem:

I want to implement a multi step form across models.

Step 1: Enter requested username/ password/image etc - User model
Step 2: Enter Employer Job Conditions information - EmployerJobCondition
model
Step 3: Enter Canditate Job Conditions information -
CandidateJobCondition model
In the third step only I want to store all the informations.

The problem is if a user is created in step 1 and then exits his browser
during step 2, thus a record in the users table is dangling, no good.Any
suggestion for wizard like data entry? Ive looked at the Wizard plugin
(http://github.com/crankin/wizard/tree/master), however it doesnt seam
like it addresses the issue mentioned above.
Pls help by giving suggestions for the above mentioned problem .
Thanks in advance.

[Rails] Unit test problem,

2009-04-05 Thread Ps_gem Sh_gem

Hi, I am new in ROR. I have 4 fixtures in my '../test/fixtures' folder:
user.yml, aggregationfeedmaps.yml, aggregations.yml, and feeds.yml. I
have few test files in unit tests folder like user_test.rb,
feeds_test.rb, aggregation_test.rb and such.

When I wrote test for model 'user' using fixture user.yml it worked
fine. But when I  tried to run test for my other models using fixtures
aggregationfeedmaps.yml, aggregations.yml, and feeds.yml it shows this
error:

FixtureClassNotFound: No class attached to find

my test file 'feeds_test.rb':

require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../test_helper'

#class FeedsTest < ActiveSupport::TestCase
class FeedsTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
  # Replace this with your real tests.
  fixtures :feeds

  def test_truth
assert true
  end

  def test_updatefeed
 feed1 = feeds(:feed_1)
#Feeds.updatefeed(feed1.id)
#assert_equal(Time.now, feed1.lastupdate)
  end

end


my fixture file: 'feeds.yml'

# Read about fixtures at http://ar.rubyonrails.org/classes/Fixtures.html
feed_1:
  id: 1
  sourcelink: http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaaf/teams/aad/ical.ics

test_truth test passes but test_updatefeed shows the
FixtureClassNotFound error
Any help what is going on? Any help on the topic would be highly
appreciated.

[Rails] Re: general ways to create a filterable search

2009-04-05 Thread Phillip

You are asking about some basic programming issues, so this is
targeted that way.

You will do well to implement session variables here. You will need to
capture the user's selected options in the session and reflect those
choices back to the form when the page is redrawn. You can use the
same form as the original search. You can have separate session
variables for each parameter or collect them in a hash. It may be
easier to work with separate variables, depending on your experience.

Use whatever controller you want to analyze the selected options and
build or select which query to use.

For those who have never done this, suppose one of the options was an
integer for size. You would pass params[:option_a] or params[:search]
[:option_a] to your controller. In the target action, you would set:

 # setting a session variable from form input; since all
parameters are of the form string,
 # you need to convert it if you want an integer. This is done for
illustrative purposes here,
 # as a string data type could just as well be used in the
database unless you were doing some math
 # operation in the database. If you were passing an id, you would
need
 # to make sure it was an integer when passed to the query
 session[:option_a] = params[:search][:option_a].to_i

Then you would run the appropriate query such as:

 # using '?' makes SQL injection attacks more difficult
 @filter = Product.find_by_sql(["SELECT * FROM products WHERE
size=?",session[:option_a]])

In the view containing the form, you would make session[:option_a]
available to the appropriate input:

  <% size = ''
 unless nil == session[:option_a]
size = session[:option_a].to_s  # it would typically work here
without the conversion method
 end %>
  >   ...or the
rails form_helper equivalent.

This allows you to use the same form and to remember the previous
input through each iteration.

You will also want to be familiar with input validation techniques to
handle mistakes and input from users who might try to use your site in
unintended ways. You will need to use HTMLEntities for text values,
even if you use an option list to submit data:

 def search_me
 # the name for the session variable and the parameter don't have
to match, but it makes programming easier
 session[:color] => HTMLEntities.encode_entities(params[:product]
[:color], :basic, :named)
 ...code
 end

and in the form:

   <% user_text = ''
  unless nil == session[:color]
 user_text = HTMLEntities.decode_entities(session[:color])
  end %>
 ... etc


You can define searches in your model or controller (or view), but
searches should be called from the controller. If you try to define a
search in the model using session[:option_a], it will not work.

model
 self.find_tea_and_crumpets(flavor)

controller
 def breakfast
find_tea_and_crumpets(session[:flavor])

This does not answer all your questions, but maybe will help someone.


One of the big problems for programmers new to the MVC model is "what
goes where?". There are various opinions, but much of it is up to you.
As you experiment, you will need tools to expose the state of your
application and what variables are being passed. To make the most of
the framework, you will need to follow rails idioms as closely as
possible, but it is not always possible with complex scenarios.

You can view the form variables being passed in the logger and you can
use session/console to test your queries. Here is a handy accessory
for this type of work:

http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/697

There is also the TextMate Footnotes plugin. Either of these may
require some 'advanced' tinkering to work satisfactorily.

You should also be familiar with logger.debug(). There is a RailsCast
on using bindings with logger.debug - very handy.



If there are any advanced programmers reading this, please feel free
to offer corrections or better ideas.

[Rails] Re: How to debug a Rails application in emacs?

2009-04-05 Thread Rick

This is a little bit dated but the way to go is here:

http://www.datanoise.com/articles/2006/7/12/tutorial-on-ruby-debug

The only basic difference when running in emacs is you want to start
your server (script/server) from inside a shell window like this:

M-x shell
$ cd your_project_root
$ script/server

I've used this method with ruby 1.8.7 / rails 2.2.2 and it definitely
works.  Unfortunately for me, I'm working with ruby 1.9.1p0 and ruby-
debug hasn't quite made it there yet.

Not sure what you're using for emacs but I've found aquamacs (cocoa
build on emacs 22.3.1) to work quite nicely on OSX.  What are you
doing to get your "rails-mode" functionality?  I've used rinari and am
currently working with emacs-rails - both located by google.

I've needed to noodle emacs-rails a bit to get it to do something
reasonable with menu driven rspec variants.

Let me know how it works out for you.

Did you want to say:

Could you have an early  tag in the template that's being  
yield'ed?

Many thanks for your help.  I've appended the code for the layout and
css to this post.  The relevant div is "main-wrapper".

P.S. The XHTML and CSS both validate, so I don't think that is the
problem.

Here is the code for the layout:

I did following and it worked:
1.  I downloaded sqlite3 dll zip from 
http://www.sqlite.org/sqlitedll-3_6_12.zip and unzipped into C:\ruby\bin 
and then ran
2.  gem install sqlite3-ruby -v 1.2.3

Thanks.

Hi,

I am doing some examples in a book on Roby on Rails. When a model
class is create with generate model command, it will create some
find_xxx methods on the fields. When the model have the relationships
with other models, the more find_xxx methods will be generated. How do
I know exactly how many and what kinds of find_xxx methods are
created?

Thanks.

Use the count method: Person.count("gender", :conditions=>["gender=?",  
"female"])

There are more calculation methods available in the ActiveRecord  
Calculations model if you check the documentation.

isn't it just

[Rails] Which Oracle connector for AR?

2009-04-05 Thread RobR

What DB connector do I need to talk to a network accessible Oracle
server: 1) with ActiveRecord?, 2) to perform basic SQL.  I'm more
familiar with what it takes to get MySQL working with AR.  Currently I
have AR 2.1.1, Ruby 1.8.5.  I'll have to ask what Oracle client/server
is available.

This question pertains to a RedHat 5 system which is not managed by me
and is only allowed RedHat managed packages, unless I install them in
my user space (/home).

[Rails] Rails or separate packages, RedHat

2009-04-05 Thread RobR

So, as I introduced myself to ActiveRecord, I asked our IT department
to install activerecord and this hierarchy popped up on the system:
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.1/

then I was able to do this
irb(main):003:0> require 'rubygems'
=> true
irb(main):004:0> require 'activerecord'
=> true

Now I realize FasterCSV, and perhaps migrations would be handy.  I'm
not building a web application at the moment, rather I'm building a
command line api to our DB using ActiveRecord for ORM.  However
perhaps one day in the future I'll be allowed a rails developed web
site

So, do I ask the IT department to install Ruby on Rails or continue
asking for particular packages?  I'd rather just get the whole thing.
If so, will an install of "rails" override or interfere with already
installed rails libraries?  They will only install RedHat 5 managed
packages without a huge fight.  Other packages, I have to compile and
install in my own user space (/home).

This is on a RedHat RHEL 5 system (uname = 2.6.18-128.1.1.el5).

Cheers and thanks!

[Rails] Sending email

I am on ubuntu machine. i want to just do simple testing of sending
emails.

i first tried postfix, then mailtrap (http://rubypond.com/articles/
2007/11/16/trap-rails-from-sending-mail-via-smtp/) to no avail. i keep
getting timed out error.

for postfix my settings were:

config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = {

  :address=> 'localhost',

  :port   => 25,

  :domain => 'www.example.com'

}

i tried changing to port 2525 to use mailtrap and got the same error.
is there something essential i am missing?

i just want to be able to send emails to test funcinality. not receive

Rails 2.2 doesn't support ruby 1.9 (rails 2.3.2 is the first version
with ruby 1.9 support, but that ruby 1.9 is by no means compulsory)

Although the real guru's here may correct this, I'm doubting you're 
going to be able to do it in emacs.

The debugger works through the console that is used to start the test 
server. It's enabled by using the --debugger (or -u) option:

 ruby script/server --debugger

The debug output and control will then be seen on the console where you 
started the server.

Unless I'm not understanding the question, you already have this.

With ActiveRecord, (by default) every record has an id that will be 
unique. You don't have to do anything to get it. While you can override 
it, every table has a field named 'id'. This will be incremented and 
maintained by the system. In MySQL it will be an 'auto_increment' field 
and defined as the primary key.

1) drop the idea of moving backwards -- I mean WTF? Why?  :-)

2) look at the difference between 1.2.3 and 2.0.2 ActionController
code and add the functionality missing in 1.2.3

3) #2 could also be done by running your tests and doing whatever
necessary to make them pass.

[Rails] Re: Just can't get Ruby on Rails to work in Leopard

2009-04-05 Thread Jferg

Assuming your only issue is MySQL Support on OS X Leopard, did you
happen to note this blog?

http://blog.flinter.com/2009/01/16/installing-rails-22-on-osx-leopard/

I assume when you first got your Leopard install it was pre-Rails
2.0?  I followed these instructions and simply installed MySQL for OS
X from the MYSQL install directions and had no issues:
http://developer.apple.com/tools/developonrailsleopard.html

When I moved from 2.0 to 2.1.1 I followed  a similar set of steps - I
googled first for any hazards - the one I found was fixed by me
installing another gem based on error logs.  Though I did not upgrade
MySQL yet and I don't use it in my dev environment much - yet.

The one problem I saw with 2.2 was having to upgrade Ruby to 1.9 - I
think that is required.

If you are handy with XCode  you can always roll your own - Hive Logic
probably has build it yourself directions for everything you'd need:
http://hivelogic.com/articles/view/ruby-rails-leopard

Hope this helps.

it should also be belongs_to :purchase_type rather than purchaseType
but I don't think that will actually make a difference (and if you
made that change you would have to rename the column to
purchase_type_id).
Have you checked that you don't simply have bad data in your database

[Rails] Use a value from a different model

2009-04-05 Thread P

Hello,
I cannot find the issue and it drives me crazy :(

let's simplify. I have 2 models: saving and purchase_type
a *saving* corresponds to a *purchase_type* e.g. new sourcing or
renegotiation
a saving has exactly one purchase_type and a purchase_type has many
savings.

when I try to display the list of savings and their purchase type
(name, not Id), i get the dreaded "You have a nil object when you
didn't expect it!".

The weirdest thing is that it works for category and subcategory, but
not for purchase type.
Is this a camel casing issue? All the relevant code is below

I'm getting mad, please help :)

Thanks,
P.


Here's the index.rhtml (extracts -- RoR tells me the issue is on the
line with *):
<% @saving.each do |s|%>

<%=s.id%>
<%=s.country.name%>
<%=s.country_reference%>
<%=s.supplier%>
<%=s.buyer%>
<%=s.category.name%>
<%=s.subcategory.name%>
*   <%=s.purchaseType.name %>

the controller (saving_controller):

class SavingController < ApplicationController
def index
@category = Category.find(:all).collect {|c| [ c.name, c.id ] }
@subcategory = Subcategory.find(:all).collect {|c| [ c.name,
c.id ] }
@purchaseType = PurchaseType.find(:all).collect {|c| [ c.name,
c.id ] }

sort_order = params[:sort_by]
sort_order ||= 'id' # for default sort
@saving = Saving.search(params[:search], params[:page], 
sort_order)
end
end

the saving model (saving - table name = savings):

class Saving < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_presence_of   :supplier,
:a_saving,
:a_spend,
:country_id,
:category_id,
:subcategory_id,
:buyer,
:purchaseType_id,

validates_numericality_of   :a_saving, :a_spend

belongs_to :category
belongs_to :purchaseType
belongs_to :subcategory

def self.search(search, page, sort_order)
search='%' if search=='' || search=='Type your search term'
paginate:page => page,
:conditions => ['supplier like 
?',"%#{search}%"],
:order => sort_order
end

end

the purchase_type model (model name = PurchaseType -table name =
purchase_types):

class PurchaseType < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_presence_of   :name
has_many :saving
end

1001, 1002, 1003, ect. and display the ticket id in the show tickets.

[Rails] Partial-Form validation from multiple pages (f.e. login-partial)

2009-04-05 Thread Lp

Hello - hard question:

I have my login-partial in my application.html.erb-layout.

Now I want to validate it, if the user pushes the submit button and
show error-messages for it, if e.g. the passwordfield is empty.

But how do I do that? For getting the error messages, I must use

render :action => 'create'

But there I have to know, from which action I came from. Beside
different pages, need different seperate instance variables (which
arn't reproduced with render :action).

Second try with

redirect_to :back

looses the errors-array...!

How can I solve this problem? Found nothing in the net =(
Beside: I'm using restful_authentication-plugin

HEEELP!

[Rails] Re: Disable routing?

2009-04-05 Thread Chris Benson

Thanks Fred, but it's a shared hosting environment, and I don't have
access to anything outside my /home area.

I'm looking for a way to tell Rails routing, "Ignore these two
directories."

Well to me, specific means (for example) exactly how you installed the

Sounds good to me.
I always focus on getting the job done in the simplest way possible
first. Then work on optimisation if you see a bottleneck.
Your biggest problem is likely to be fetching all the other sites for
scraping which caching will hopefully help with.

Cuke is teetering on the brink of this forum demanding it get its own forum:

news://news.gmane.org:119/gmane.comp.lang.ruby.rspec.user

Try more advanced cucumber questions there.

Until then, your RubyGems binary folder is not on your path - El Goog will tell 
you what that folder is. Something like /var/lib/gems/1.9.0/bin , but I can't 
find you my own example because Debian's Ruby packages blow goats.

[Rails] [ANN] assert{ 2.0 } 0.4.8 unit-tests Ajax using assert_rjs syntax + assert_xhtml

2009-04-05 Thread Phlip

Railsters:

assert{ 2.0 } now contains "alpha" replacements for these assertions from the 
"arts" project:

 assert_rjs_ :alert, 'This is an alert'
 assert_rjs_ :call, 'foo', 'bar', /baz/  #  matches foo("bar", "baz")
 assert_rjs_ :remove, 'offending_div'
 assert_rjs_ :replace, 'person_45', 'This replaces person_45'
 assert_rjs_ :replace_html, :label_7, /Top_Ranking/

Notice these assertions are not yet drop-in compatible with assert_rjs classic 
- 
hence the trailing _. More replacements are naturally forthcoming.

The improvement is they use racc and rkelly, which form a real JavaScript 
lexer. 
This solution is much better than Regexp (and better than certain lexers I have 
tried in the past!). The assertion is more accurate, so it can use both Regexp 
and assert_xhtml to pin down each important detail of generated JavaScript.

One common Ajax scenario revolves around sending Element.update() commands 
containing the output of View partials. These can be very complex, so testing 
them _before_ they get into a real web browser can be mission-critical. The 
following test intercepts an Element.update("staff_access", "..."), where the 
"..." contains an entire . (Not my idea, but you must admit it gets the 
job done!)

Everything inside the do...end blocks is assert_xhtml notation ( described 
here: 
http://assert2.rubyforge.org/svn/README ). The assert_rjs_ intercepted the 
"..." 
payload, interpreted it, and rendered it as HTML. This allows us to test that 
secret payload just as freely as we would have tested HTML after a simple GET:

   def test_deleting_a_staff_sets_active_flag_to_false_instead_of_destroying_it
 aaron = staff(:aaron)
 xhr :post, :xhr_delete_staff, :staff_id => aaron.id

 assert_rjs_ :replace_html, :staff_list, /quentin/ do
   form :name => :staff_access, :verbose! => true do
 without!{ tr :id => "staff_#{ aaron.id }" }
   end
 end

 assert{ Staff.find_by_id(aaron.id).active? == false }
   end

The test shows :verbose! => true - use it to get a glimpse of your actual HTML 
partial, without all the JavaScript delimiters cluttering it up.

The test also shows without!{} testing that aaron did indeed disappear from the 
form.

Both :replace and :replace_html use this syntax. If anyone needs any other 
"arts" assertion here - or even a new kind of JS assertion - ping me and I will 
add it.

Get assert_rjs_ with:

   gem install racc rkelly nokogiri assert2

   require 'assert2/rjs'

(Note that assert2 contains more than one reusable module, so it does not 
automatically require every dependency. This lets you only install the gems you 
need...)

Typically you don't do this inside rails, you do this in apache, nginx

[Rails] Just can't get Ruby on Rails to work in Leopard

2009-04-05 Thread Scott Corgan

I've tried a million different tutorials and I just can't figure this
out. I have all things needed to create the development environment
and I just can't get the server to function correctly I suppose.
Here's the error I am getting:

"The bundled mysql.rb driver has been removed from Rails 2.2. Please
install the mysql gem and try again: gem install mysql.
/!\ FAILSAFE /!\  Sun Apr 05 00:17:39 -0700 2009
  Status: 500 Internal Server E rror
  dlsym(0x1c44680, Init_mysql): symbol not found - /usr/local/lib/ruby/
gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7/lib/mysql.bundle"

And then when I got to localhost:3000 and click on the "About your
application's environment", I get a red box that says "We're sorry,
but something went wrong.We've been notified about this issue and
we'll take a look at it shortly" that drops down.

I can't find a solution anywhere.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Please help! I've spent hours and I
can't find anything.

Thank You!

[Rails] Disable routing?

2009-04-05 Thread Chris Benson

I have a Rails application that a couple of folders in the root (of
public) for Wordpress and Mediawiki that I want to completely exclude
from Rails routing.  How do I have the routing function of my Rails
app ignore anything in the /blog or /wiki directories?

Example:

When someone types in http://mydomain.com/blog, I want the Rails app's
routing to ignore it.

Thanks,
Chris

[Rails] Re: Testing: Application controller and helper

2009-04-05 Thread Phlip

Shaum Sona wrote:

> How do we test application controller and application helper in rails?

Two answers.

The best answer is you should use Test-Driven Development, where you write a 
test that fails because a minor ability of a feature is not there, and you get 
the test to fail for the correct reason. Then you write a little code to 
provide 
the ability and pass the test.

The great thing about TDD is you are not required to make sure the test 
actually 
calls the exact method that provides the ability. Sometimes that's a good goal, 
yet TDD provides such comprehensive test coverage that the ideal of "unit" 
testing becomes less important.

You TDD the application controller and helper by firing up the usual functional 
tests on your usual controllers and views, and TDDing their features.

The second answer: El Goog would have lead you to "rails helper tests":

   http://nubyonrails.com/articles/test-your-helpers

The third answer is I don't see why a functional test cannot simply reach out 
to 
ApplicationController alone...

[Rails] Re: Where to store scrape results?

2009-04-05 Thread Adam Akhtar

Thanks Andrew for ruling out any doubts i had regarding using yaml.

I will cache the reuslts then for around 2 hours in a db.

Im now wondering how this will affect the performance of filtering.

My guess is that when a user selects some filters on the results screen, 
these get passed as params back to the controllers index. Logic there 
will determine its a request to filter existing results and will access 
the cache in the db and grab the yaml. Then use yaml to turn the info 
into the relevant objects and then use enumerators find_all method to 
filter the results...

do you think that approach is ok or is there a better way of doing it?

many thanks once again. you have been a great help.

I have narrowed it down to this piece of code in config\environment.rb:

config.action_controller.session = {
:session_key => '_linkitb_session',
:secret  => 
'ec87782d1ced62d9adf7bb29f9dea79026c62d16f4a6a3d35098cf198274193355187a784f66d8f3836efa70e5c6c4301c9b6819f7f1c196c3b853a0b6f9148b'
  }

If I comment this out the server boots no problem but I get an error 
when I open up localhost:3000 in the browser. Has nyone a sloution to 
this?

Thanks.

[Rails] Including related data in restful results

2009-04-05 Thread Don French

I am trying to create a restful XML output for a model but also want
to include the data from a related table. For example, I have a model
called person and the person has multiple photos. I want to include
the url of each photo so that the restful user can then retrieve the
photos if needed.  I know I could create a separate url like person/
123/photos and that would work, but is an additional  query. Either
would include a url of the actual photo photo/987. Again I could also
do person/123/photo/987

Would I be better off to have the one url of person/123 return the
person info along with the photos or separate urls as mentioned above?
Also the pros and cons of the extended photo url

Thanks

The benefit of YAML is that once you've scraped the data, you probably
already have a structure in place which can easily be saved and
restored.
You could combine the two by storing the YAML in the database.

>From a performance perspective, consider caching the results of the
scraping for at least some period of time so that you don't have to
scrape on every search (unless the source websites change VERY
frequently)

[Rails] Re: Where to store scrape results?

2009-04-05 Thread Adam Akhtar

Hi thanks for your replies.

My main concern is performance. The data is not scraped beforehand in 
advance, its scraped on demand by my users. They submit a search query 
whch i then perform on several site, scrape their results and aggregate 
them for the user. My site is basically a meta search engine.

Storing results in a db

pros: i get to use msql find conditions when the user wants to filter 
the results even more.

cons: ill only be temporarily storng these results. As soon as the user 
does a new search there gone forever. I dont know the peformance hit of 
storing a 1000 results in a db consisting of several fields. Is a db 
still a wise choice?

Using YAML:

pros: not sure, but hey, i like using it!
cons: no msql conditions so id have to create my own methods

does the above change anything?

[Rails] Re: Where to store scrape results?

2009-04-05 Thread glennswest


You can easily create a table, and stick it in as a row.
in rails sqlite is easy enough, if you site is bigger you
can use db2.
If its like most sites, you make a "result" table
that is associated to a user table.
