[Rails] SubDomain Queries

2009-05-29 Thread Sahil Dave
Hi,

I have a requirement in my rails application where i need to provide access
to a blog from another domain.
e.g:  blog.company.com should point to my app's blog_controller's show
action. Is this possible.

 if it is possible, will the user see:
1. blog.company.com/blog/some-blog
2. myapp.com/blog/some-blog

I read a lot about Subdomain_fu. But i think it can only emulate subdomains
in my own app. like (blog.myapp.com) or (company.blog.myapp.com).

I really need help on this. Any pointers or suggestions are always welcome.

Regards

[Rails] Ruby on Rails giving error on HP-UX-ia64

2009-05-29 Thread matty.r...@gmail.com

Hi All,

I'm trying to install RubyonRails on HP-UX 11.23[ia64-hpux11.23]
machine.

I was succesful in building Ruby1.8.7p160 and RubyGems1.3.2.
#./ruby -v
ruby 1.8.7 (2009-04-08 patchlevel 160) [ia64-hpux11.23]
#./gem -v
1.3.2
Also my basic Ruby programs are working fine.


On Installing RubyRails I got installation successful message:

Please help me in resolving this error.

actually is.
Thanks in advance for the help :)

[Rails] Re: import unicode characters

2009-05-29 Thread Brad Wilson

 I've discovered the same thing as Peter, although I'm using different 
tools (Upscene's Database Workbench Pro 2.8.10) to import the data from 
both MDB and Firebird tables, which both handle the unicode (DBCS) 
character set acceptably well. Having said that, I've also tried 
command-line importing from native and delimited text versions of my 
source data, and I get exactly the same errors as I see in DBW. e.g. :

Incorrect string value: 'Agnetha F\xE4ltskog' for column 'artistname' at 
row 1

I'm using MySQL V5.0.45 x64.

I've tried every different combination of character set for the columns 
in the destination MySQL table, and neither single nor double-byte 
characters seem to be imported properly. I've also tried using different 
table types (InnoDB and MySAM) to see if that makes any difference. It 
doesn't appear to (i.e. I get the same errors at the same point in the 
imported data).

I do understand that there are some limitations in using unicode (or 
unicode-like) character sets, but I'm banging my brains out trying to 
not have to hand-edit or perform on-the-fly mappings of a couple of 
characters in a couple of columns in ~1200 records of a 7,000 record 
source table to import them into MySQL.

It's a bit frustrating that MySQL doesn't seem to handle the same 
characters that Access and Firebird 2.0.1 deal with without fuss (once 
the correct character set is configured, of course!).

There remains the other major problem of handling of non-unicode NLS 
mappings (Greek, Cyrillic, Slavic, etc), but I'll deal with that on a 
record-by-record basis at a later date. But to import about 1000 records 
containing various unicode characters is my main focus.

Any suggestions? I'm happy to post examples, error messages, character 
values, whatever it takes! I'd really like to solve this problem, or at 
least understand why the mappings aren't correct.


with regards,
Brad Wilson

 In my app I have:
 
 map.resources :cdocs, :member = {:linkable = :get}
 
 for one resource, and the linkable invocations take additional 
 parameters. Remember parameters come after the ? and don't affect the 
 routing.

 Just for curiosity sake, I have an index on [viewer_id, viewer_type,

Maybe, you want to include the rate in the index as well? That way, 
everything is in the index, and I would presume, MYSQL will not have to

[Rails] Re: Two destroy methods with different behavior for the model

2009-05-29 Thread Denis Kokin

Thank you, Mike.

I've already made two different methods, just as you explained.





On May 24, 12:12 am, Mike Rose mfrosengar...@gmail.com wrote:
 Denis,

 I did this sort of thing with user accounts a while ago.. I had set up
 a site that needed to mark users as 'inactive' if they ever decided to
 close their account.

 Your issue with web crawlers seeing the Move to Trash link makes me
 think this page is public and not member-only accessible? If so, I
 can't think of any way to tell a spider to not look at particular
 parts of the text (maybe there is a way, i've always done a
 traditional approach and told the spider to leave my whole page
 alone). Either way, on to a possible solution:

 The two actions I would have are:
 (already in your code) desotry - this action houses the traditional
 rails destroy method that will remove the record from the table and
 any dependencies.
 (need to add) move_to_trash - the new action that will call the
 move_to_tash method we will create on the object in view

 Explanation:
 You should not modify the destroy action and following rails
 conventions and good programming practice I would not pass a parameter
 into a destroy action and then decide what kind of 'destroy' to
 execute. Rather, let's create a second action called move_to_trash
 with the same access privileges as the destroy. The reason we do this
 is because logically our two actions are doing very different things,
 one is destroying a sql record and the other is changing an attribute
 on an object.

 So we add a move_to_trash method to the model and subsequently we will
 want a new column on our model moved_to_trash (boolean). Now the
 move_to_trash action will call the model.move_to_trash and then that
 method will called a self.update_attribute(:moved_to_trash, true).

 [[Alternatively, this is where I like to encourage using enums in your
 database and have your model have states. It could be very clean to
 have a column status and then you
 have :moved_to_trash, :inbox, :other_cool_states ]]

 Hopefully you find this helpful. If you provide more details about
 your particular situation we can work out a solution that fits.

[Rails] Re: under MVC, business rules belong in the __________

 Jeff Schwab wrote:
 
 That's how I was taught MVC, long before I'd heard of Ruby:  Models do 
 some basic checking, but business logic belongs in the controller.  That

 logic.
 
 Could you cite?

No; as I say, this was 10+ years ago.  Again, I'm not arguing what it 
should be, nor what it originally was; however, I am telling you 
that a lot professional engineers, including me, were originally taught 
that business logic belonged in controllers.  When I first learned of 
MVC, I was undergraduate student, not an expert on OOD.  I don't code my 
Rails apps with thick Controllers, but I am bothered by this cult-like 
adherence to some One True Way of Agile programming.  We're going to end 
up with a lot of bad software and lousy developers.

 The Model should be as fat as possible. Anything a user can do to the biz 
 rules, 
 thru the View, unit test can do to the Model directly.
 That's not necessarily true.
 
 That is extremely necessarily true.

This is widely considered a good idea != This is necessarily true

 Defining designs in terms of how to 
 test-drive their creation is a simple but powerful way to explain generic 
 design 
 guidelines. Think, for example, of the tests required to generate one of the 
 designs in the book /Design Patterns/.

Whether TDD is a good idea has nothing to do with how functionality 
should be apportioned among Model, View, and Controller.  In particular, 
Controllers need tests of their own, no matter how much functionality 
you stick in the Models.  (Unless you're going for only a Model/View 
paradigm, as some would argue Java Swing uses.)

 When you are writing an application, you should respond to the business rules 
 in 
 your requirements by TDDing them into your models first, then wiring them up 
 to 
 your Views. There's simply no counter-example for this practice.

I believe you've been misled, and that you are mistaken.  I'm not sure 
how else to say that, nor do I have any interest in arguing with a 
zealot who makes such absolutisms.

 So the question is: Where did this disinformation come from? Do any 
 websites (or 
  cough books) out there actually say the biz rules belong in the 
 controller?
 I first used MVC with MFC, about 10+ years ago, and in Java shortly 
 thereafter.  Fat controllers may have been advocated by MS back then.
 
 MFC exploits vendor lock-in by tempting you with a wizard. I suspect Rails 
 is 
 an example of a competing platform that simply doesn't need one! Beyond 
 script/generate...

Rails is more wizard driven than MFC ever was, with scripts to 
generate just about everything.  MFC was that way because it was meant 
to encourage consistent look and feel among applications; Rails is that 
way because it relies heavily on conventions to work properly.  If you 
really want to pick an our way or the highway development framework, 
take a look at Cocoa.

Can you please specify the in detail the observe_field that you have 
used for 2x radio buttons??

Im also facing the same problem. My observe field is working fine for 3 
radio buttons but for 3 I dont understand hoe to make it work??











krunk- wrote:
 Setup:
 
 A form which initially has only one field: a 2x group of radio_buttons.
 As the user selects options, additinal fields are added or removed.
 
 I started with observe_field. I was getting some very peculiar behavior
 from observe_field and finally figured out why =
 
 Observe field only works for the first click. So it's not suitable for
 a form that reacts to user input since a user may select/unselect an
 option multiple times.
 
 Next, I decided to use observe_form. At first, it seemed to overcome
 the problems of observe_field and reacted to every click of the
 radio_button. But then I discovered that it doesn't observe changes in
 fields that are not in the original source (the fields added by the
 user). So I'm back to ground zero.
 
 I suppose I could build all the DOM objects from scratch and roll my
 own functions for adding/removing and call them via onclick(), but I
 was hoping to get away from some of the:
 
 var myDiv = document.createElement('div');
 var link = document.createElement('a');
 link.setAttribute('href', 'somepage.php');
 var text = document.createCreateTextNode('Link Name');
 
 link.appendChild(text);
 myDiv.appendChild(link);
 
 in lieu of rjs goodness like:
 myElement = diva href='somepage.php'Link Name/a/div
 page.replace_html :elementId, myElement
 
 
 Any help appreciated

[Rails] tests problem - NoMethodError: private method `gsub' called for 117681882:Fixnum

2009-05-29 Thread Piotr Szmielew

Hi,
i got very strange problem connected to tests in Rails. I got the same 
application code version as my team has, and on their computer all tests 
pass, and on my laptop (debian 5, ruby 1.8.6/1.8.7 (tried both), rails 
2.3.2) i got more then 50 errors - majority of them is variations of 
NoMethodError: private method `gsub' called for 117681882:Fixnum error 
in controller.

Anyone know how to fix it/has this problem before?
I reinstalled ruby and rails about three times, clearing gems etc every 
time but with no effect...

[Rails] Re: import unicode characters

2009-05-29 Thread lecielbleu

Thanks for all , i have solved problem , it was only text-editor
options , i changed scite standarts  (encoding=utf-8) and it's
worked :)

wrote:
  I've discovered the same thing as Peter, although I'm using different
 tools (Upscene's Database Workbench Pro 2.8.10) to import the data from
 both MDB and Firebird tables, which both handle the unicode (DBCS)
 character set acceptably well. Having said that, I've also tried
 command-line importing from native and delimited text versions of my
 source data, and I get exactly the same errors as I see in DBW. e.g. :

 Incorrect string value: 'Agnetha F\xE4ltskog' for column 'artistname' at
 row 1

 I'm using MySQL V5.0.45 x64.

 I've tried every different combination of character set for the columns
 in the destination MySQL table, and neither single nor double-byte
 characters seem to be imported properly. I've also tried using different
 table types (InnoDB and MySAM) to see if that makes any difference. It
 doesn't appear to (i.e. I get the same errors at the same point in the
 imported data).

 I do understand that there are some limitations in using unicode (or
 unicode-like) character sets, but I'm banging my brains out trying to
 not have to hand-edit or perform on-the-fly mappings of a couple of
 characters in a couple of columns in ~1200 records of a 7,000 record
 source table to import them into MySQL.

 It's a bit frustrating that MySQL doesn't seem to handle the same
 characters that Access and Firebird 2.0.1 deal with without fuss (once
 the correct character set is configured, of course!).

 There remains the other major problem of handling of non-unicode NLS
 mappings (Greek, Cyrillic, Slavic, etc), but I'll deal with that on a
 record-by-record basis at a later date. But to import about 1000 records
 containing various unicode characters is my main focus.

 Any suggestions? I'm happy to post examples, error messages, character
 values, whatever it takes! I'd really like to solve this problem, or at
 least understand why the mappings aren't correct.

 with regards,

[Rails] Rails site on CD

Hi All

I've been asked to provide a copy of a site I've just put together on
a CD so that it can be tailed in with a Powerpoint presentation (I
presume links from the presentation to a local copy of the site).

Does anyone have any thoughts on how one could go about this?  The

and then store a copy of the page as a static html file.

All suggestions gratefully received!

When you use caches_page in your controllers it'll create a directory 
structure in your public directory that includes static versions of the 
pages you set to use. After you do that, you can just take the public 
directory and browse through that omitting the rest of the app. That 
would probably be the best way to go about it.

[Rails] Question about Rails-formatted query params in URL

2009-05-29 Thread Brian Hartin

Hi all,

I am seeing a behavior for which I can't find documentation.  I am
posting a form to a url with query params formatted in the Rails manner:

/controller/action?foo[bar]=3  # Of course, the brackets are properly
encoded

When doing this, the actual form fields get lost, e.g.

params[:foo] # This gives {:bar = 3}

even though the form has other fields for foo.

Any ideas?

Thanks so much,

Brian Hartin

[Rails] Re: SubDomain Queries

2009-05-29 Thread Robin Fisher

Hi Sahil,

If someone types in blog.company.com, you will need access to the
server on which that domain resides in order to redirect it to your
app, it has nothing to do with how you structure your application.

If you setup a redirect, then the user will see yourapp.com/blog/:id
unless you reconfigure the routes in routes.rb.  The alternative so
that the user sees blog.company.com is to frame your site on the
company.com website although this is considered slightly 2001 and not
really the done thing.

2009-05-29 Thread Tonypm

Ok, so

Rails Guide http://guides.rubyonrails.org/testing.html
para 3.5 says it exists - I guess the guide needs amending?

It was deprecated at 2.2.2
 - assert_valid is deprecated. Use assert record.valid? instead
see
http://github.com/rails/rails/commit/d4754677a34d34d4a0955a04f2cc6571bdc5e82d
and
https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/1470-assert_valid-undefined-in-edge-activesupporttestcase

I didnt want to go change all my tests just at the moment, so putting
assert_valid in my test_helper gets me over that for the moment.  Bit
of a time waster, since I was going from 2.0.2 to 2.3 so had not seen
the dep error.

def assert_valid(record)
  assert record.valid?, record.errors.full_messages.join(\n)
end

Mostly agreed.  It's very much like Rails, or C++ template

[Rails] Re: I need a lot of advice here - let's start from the beginning

2009-05-29 Thread J. D.

I fixed all my issues and am up and running.

Here's what I did to fix them all...

First, I had to uninstall my old ruby and gems..

In my case I had to do sudo gem uninstall --install-dir 
/path/to/directory NameOfGem to uninstall all of mine because gem 
uninstall could not find them.  I did that first by just doing a locate 
(name of gem) to see which directory it was in.

I uninstalled all the gems and then I uninstalled Ruby using the 
following:

sudo apt-get remove rubygems ruby irb ri rdoc ruby1.8-dev

.. that solved the uninstall issues.

Installing Ruby 1.9.1 and Rails

I created a checklist of everything I did when installing ruby and rails 
from source in case someone else has the same issues I did.  Here's the 
instructions.

Prep Tools and Libraries
1. Download latest 1.9.1 source and place in Directory/src.
2. Go to terminal and type the following:
3. TYPE sudo apt-get install build-essential wget libreadline5-dev 
libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev libsqlite3-dev libssl-dev

Installing Ruby Source
1. Go to src directory on desktop via terminal.
2. Type ls to see name of package.
3. Type tar xvzf (name of package)
4. Type rm *.gz (to remove the .gz src file)
5. Type cd ruby(tab) to finish dir typing
6. Type autoconf (to check if autoconf is there)
7. Type sudo apt-get install autoconf (to install autoconf)
8. Type autoconf
9. Type ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-pthread
10. Type make
11. Type sudo make install

Check Versions
1. Type ruby -v (should be latest version)
2. Type gem -v (should be latest version)
3. Type sudo gem update (everything should be up to date)
4. Type irb (to access IRB)
5. Type RUBY_VERSION (should show latest version)

Install Rails and other gems
1. Type sudo gem install rails sqlite3-ruby rubygems-update test-unit 
capistrano rspec
2. Type rails -v (to check rails version)
3. Type rails testapp
4. Type cd testapp
5. Type script/server
6. Open Browser
7. Type http://localhost:3000

Everything should be running fine.  In my case I'm up and running.  As a 
new user to linux I had to research several sites to find all the 
information.

[Rails] Re: ruby 1.9.1, cygwin rails 2.3.2: undefined method camelize

2009-05-29 Thread danmack-gmail

I'm not having trouble installing rails.  Ruby 1.9.1 came with its own
copy of the gem binary which I have all installed in a separate
hierarchy.  But, when I run the rails command to create a new test
application, that's when I get the undefined method camelize for
app:String

I have googled around a bit and found a reference to a FreeBSD user
having the same problem.   As I said earlier, this works perfectly on
my Mac OS X Leopard system so I'll do most of my concept work there
using ruby 1.9.1  rails 2.3.2.

If anyone has any other ideas, I'm all ears.  Luckily I don't
absolutely have to have this working on cygwin ... it would just be
nice.

My Ruby 1.8.x / Rails 2.3.2 Environments all work fine.  This is just
for Ruby 1.9.1p129 + Rails 2.3.2 which I'm having trouble with.  Yes,
I really want to use Ruby 1.9.1 for projects that are not in
production yet as this gives me exposure to the the new ruby and will
help me eventually with porting of my old apps.

Actually, I've ported a few of my Rails applications from Ruby 1.8.6/
Ruby 1.8.7 to Ruby 1.9.1 with very minor effort so it's not as big of
a deal as people seem to make it out.

Thanks for your suggestion anyway.

  Thanks,

 Are you wanting to use ruby 1.9.1 or ruby 1.8.6?  If you're trying to  
 use ruby 1.9.1, then you you'll want to use the gem command for it.  
 For example, the command might be

 gem1.9 install rails

 instead of

 gem install rails

[Rails] Book Shelf app in 'Ruby on Rails Bible' book

2009-05-29 Thread rails_n00b

I'm trying to follow through with the Book Shelf app that's in the
'Ruby on Rails Bible' book and I'm at a point where I'm trying to
install Ruby/Amazon. I downloaded the Ruby/Amazon and extracted it as
instructed. Now I'm at the step where I need to drop into a Ruby
console to verify the Ruby/Amazon installation.

In the console I typed :

require 'amazon/aws/search'
RuntimeError: Unsupported digest algorithm (sha256).
from /Users/kevin/dev/Ruby/book_shelf/lib/amazon/aws/search.rb:34:in
`initialize'
from /Users/kevin/dev/Ruby/book_shelf/lib/amazon/aws/search.rb:34:in
`new'
from /Users/kevin/dev/Ruby/book_shelf/lib/amazon/aws/search.rb:34
from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in
`gem_original_require'
from /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in
`require'
from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.2/lib/
active_support/dependencies.rb:156:in `require'
from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.2/lib/
active_support/dependencies.rb:521:in `new_constants_in'
from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.2/lib/
active_support/dependencies.rb:156:in `require'
from (irb):1


I'm too much of Ruby n00b to know what that error means or how to
resolve it. Any suggestions? It probably has something to do with the
fact that I'm using different versions of Ruby, rails, gems, Ruby/
Amazon since that book was written in '08 (likely '07).

[Rails] Re: under MVC, business rules belong in the __________

2009-05-29 Thread Robert Walker

Jeff Schwab wrote:
 Robert Walker wrote:
 Mostly agreed.  It's very much like Rails, or C++ template

This seems to me to be a gross oversimplification. While there may be 
some similarities, in that they both implement the basic MVC design 
pattern, Cocoa development involves design patterns that are rarely seen 
in Rails, or any other web framework. Patterns such as chain of 
responsibility, decorator/delegation, command, composite/view hierarchy, 
key value code/key value observing.

My only real point here is that any similarities with Rails falls away 
very quickly when you get into the inner workings of the Cocoa 
framework.

 metaprogramming, in the sense that convention is leveraged to define
 program structure.  Restrictions aren't necessarily a bad thing.  The
 one aspect of Cocoa development that does really bother me is that it's
 only really meant to be done in XCode, with which I am not thrilled.

I do admit that Xcode's text editor could use some work. However, I'd 
rather use Xcode's integrated editor over many of the other IDEs I've 
used like Eclipse, NetBeans, JDeveloper, etc.

However, as Jim stated, you don't have to use it. You can use whatever 
editor you want.

The fact is though, that there is much more focus placed on features for 
dealing with the complexities of desktop application development, which 
don't apply to web based frameworks like Rails. All you really need to 
develop a Rails application is a text editor and a command line. Xcode 
is, by necessity, much more that a simple text editor.

[Rails] Full text search on Rails using the acts_as_solr plugin

2009-05-29 Thread Maurício Linhares

Hi everyone,

We've just released our fork of the acts_as_solr plugin that we've
been using for a while now to power the full text search on our
projects. The fork features some changes to the way configurations are
made, updates Solr and the Jetty HTTP server, better error handing, is
fully compatible with will_paginate view helpers and :page/:per_page
options and we feel it's a great option to the Rails full text search
plugins.

Obviouly the plugin keeps one of the best features that is the live
index update (no need to write cron tasks or anything to update your
models, once your active_record object is saved or updated it's sent
to be indexed by Solr).

If anyone is interested in checking it out, here's our sample tutorial
at GitHub - http://wiki.github.com/mauricio/acts_as_solr

And here's the plugin repo - http://github.com/mauricio/acts_as_solr/tree/master

Cheers and I hope this email doesn't stars a flamewar ;)

I'm not sure, but if there isn't, a helper method would be trivial to 
write.  However, you probably shouldn't be writing that sort of code in 
the first place:

* if X=42 should be if x == 42.
* JavaScript belongs in external files, not in the view.  (Just like CSS 
-- although you *can* include it inline, it's a very bad idea.)
* Depending on what you're doing, this may be too much logic for the 
view.

[Rails] Re: shortcut to call js function

2009-05-29 Thread Mk 27

Sorry, yeah, that should be ==

some_func() is in an external file, but it does need to be called from 
in the view.  Your assertion that javascript does not belong there is 
patently ridiculous since many of the normal rails functions deploy 
JS/AJAX, in the view.  A central conceit of rails is XMLHttpRequest, and 
it is deployed IN THE VIEW.

I will investigate writing a helper, thanks.

Why?  What does it do?  Can you use event handlers instead?

 Your assertion that javascript does not belong there is 
 patently ridiculous 

No it's not.  It is in fact generally accepted, though there may be a 
little disagreement over precise details.  (I'll admit that I tend to be 
towards the extreme side of the debate.)


 since many of the normal rails functions deploy 
 JS/AJAX, in the view.  

Yes, this is one reason I'm not all that keen on the implementation of 
Rails' JS helpers (although lowpro greatly helps, and it's certainly far 
easier than doing Ajax without helpers).

 A central conceit of rails is XMLHttpRequest, and 
 it is deployed IN THE VIEW.

I wonder if we're using in the view in the same sense here.  Certainly 
it's true that the XmlHttpRequest is triggered in the view, but the 
JavaScript code for it should be in a separate file from the 
HTML/ERb/Haml/whatever.  (Yes, I've used these principles in complex 
Ajax apps.)

Generally speaking, it should never be necessary to have any more JS in 
your HTML files than you can fit into a simple onclick attribute 
(actually, even that's not strictly necessary, and I prefer to avoid it 
when I can through good use of onload).  In particular, script tags in 
the body are almost certainly a sign of poor design practice (the 
exception would be for external libraries like Google Analytics and 
Facebook Connect).

In sum, then...please don't tell me what I say is patently ridiculous 
unless you're sure of it.  Rails does not always do things in the best 
way possible where generating JS (and SQL) is concerned.

 
 I will investigate writing a helper, thanks.

OK.

[Rails] Mi browser no muestra el formato para captura desplegado

2009-05-29 Thread Jose Galvan

Hola,

Soy nuevo totalmente con ruby on rails..de hecho durante 15 a#os
programe con un RAD que no maneja codigo asi que estoy intentando
retomar este tipo de lenguajes nuevamente..y vaya que si han cambiando.

 Estoy siguiendo un tutorial que indica como hacer una aplicacion
sencilla llamada 'DEPOT', despues de sortear algunos problemas de
configuracion de mysql y el mismo rails logre llegar al punto donde se
me indica que ejecute el comando:

 ruby script/generate scaffold Product

Segun esto este comando me generara el controlador, el modelo y la vista
adecuados para ejecutar las altas bajas y cambios a mi tabla de
'Products' que previamente defini en mi base de datos
(depot_development)en mysql.

Una vez que levanto el servidor ejecuto en el browser:
 http://localhost:3000/Products

y el browser me regresa lo siguiente:


Listing products
Show   Edit   Destroy
Show   Edit   Destroy
Show   Edit   Destroy

New product


y bueno, efectivamente la tabla tiene ya 3 registros, la cosa aqui es
que no me muestra el contenido de los registros solo las opciones para
manipularlos o la opcion para crear uno nuevo...si le doy click a 'New
product' me muestra otra pagina pero no me muestra los campos para yo
ingresar datos.

de hecho borre la aplicacion y volvi a generar todo segun el demo pero
nada, sigue igual.

Algun paso hice mal o no se que pasa..pareciera que el controlador no
esta invocando las vistas (formatos) de despliegue.

Alguna idea o comentario seran de gran ayuda.


Gracias.

Jose

Apparently you don't understand what I'm getting at here.  I'm not

your first choices if all you need is repeating elements).

Rather what I'm talking about is simply having div class=menu/div 
in your HTML, then do something like

window.onload = function () {
  $$('.menu').each(function (div) {
createMenuDiv(e);
  };
};

in the separate JS file.  Much cleaner; much better separation of 
presentation and behavior.  Almost (M)VCish -- the JS is sort of the 
client-side controller.

 Also, using an event handler still 
 entails putting some javascript in an html page somewhere.

Not necessarily.  You can use the onload technique (as above) to assign 
behavior without a single JS call in the HTML.  All you need is the 
external script tag in the head.

 
 You have hit a paradox by saying that you want to use prototype, etc.

It's not a paradox at all.  It's perfectly feasible, and I know because 
I have done it.

 I do 
 understand it is an explicit goal of rails to minimize the amount of js 
 that the developer has to deal with personally, but I am already 
 comfortable with it.  

So am I -- comfortable enough to know that I don't like Rails' approach 
that much (although I do use it here and there for simplicity's sake).

 I could tie my left hand to the chair in order to 
 guarantee that only my right hand will be used for typing, but why 
 bother?

I'm really not impressed by the analogy.  Properly separated JS is a 
little harder to set up initially, but is much easier to deal with 
later.  Come to think of it, the same could be said of frameworks such 
as Rails...

 
 Anyway, Marnen, these are *cosmetic* preferences.   I would just hate to 
 see the day when some weirdo consortium comes along and says From now

Again: it is possible.  It is feasible. It's not even particularly 
difficult.  I have done it on a complex application, and would do it 
again in similar circumstances.  It is not a cosmetic preference, but 
rather an architectural one.  And it is not my idea alone -- it comes 
from the JS guidelines of Douglas Crockford ( http://www.crockford.com 
), who is or was a JS architect at Yahoo! (he's also the guy who 
discovered JSON and the classical inheritance patterns in JS).  If 
you're working with JS, I strongly recommend poking around his site if 
you haven't already -- there's lots of useful stuff.

[Rails] Re: shortcut to call js function

2009-05-29 Thread pharrington

To me, the greatest gain unobtrusive Javascript provides is
maintainability. You split the client-side logic (that is *all*
Javascript is) from the view for the same reason you split the
controller processing and buisness logic from the view with an MVC
framework. In addition to all Marnen said: your views become much
easier to test; You spend less time adapting the HTML your designer
gives you (or that you mock up yourself); It's *much* easier to focus
on providing an intuitive interface for those with or without
Javascript enabled.

Just a couple specific points:

 1) what if this menu is part of a view being loaded into an existing
 div, and not part of a fresh page

$(element).live(event, function...)

I'm sure non-JQuery'ers have something similar

 Yeah, because you use ruby shortcuts.  The JS still ends up in the page.
 All you have to do is look at the source generated for a rails app page
 (any and all of them) to find more inline javascript than you can shake
 a stick at.

Don't use the RJS helpers, no inline JS. And if you think not using
the RJS helpers is limiting, I doubt you've really explored the powers
JS frameworks.


 It still seems to me that it is.  Where there is html, there can be
 javascript.

 Yes.  There can also be CSS.  There *should* be neither.

 WHY!???!?

Semantic markup that knows little about how it'll be displayed is far
easier to maintain, and offers *more* presentational flexibility via
your stylesheets.

 Yes.  That's not what I meant.  Rather, I meant that the script tag

 HTML file.

Alright, I'll think about it.  I have probably written 1000 lines of 
.js in my life*, no doubt there are angles and possibilities I am not 
aware of.

Here is an example callback for the menU_div_create function I 
mentioned, if this will clarify with the crude switch mechanism:

function mainmenu (num) { switch (num) {
case 0: if (!DBname) { alert(You must create a new database 
first!); break; }
var tmp=prompt(Record name:);
new ListRecord(tmp); break;
case 1: if (current==-1) { alert(No record selected!); break; 
}
var tmp=prompt(Field name:);
new formDBentry(tmp,undefined); break;
case 2: submit_form(); break;
case 3: window.open(mkdb_load.pl,_self); break;
case 4: tmp=prompt(Database name:);
if (tmp == ) break;
DBname=tmp;
clear_start();
default: break;  }
}

the array corresponding to this (5 options that are the text for the 
menu):
var mmenu=[Add Record, Add Field, Save, Load, New];

and here is the real make_menu function, it does not actually involve 
a div; but usually the parnt is (and callback is the function 
above):

/* make_menu is not real OO */
function make_menu (type, css, choices, callback, parnt) {
var i=0;
var tmp, strng;
do {tmp=document.createElement(type);
tmp.setAttribute(class,css);
strng=callback+(+i+);
tmp.setAttribute(onclick,strng);
tmp.textContent=choices[i];
parnt.appendChild(tmp);
i++; }  while (choices[i]);
}

I haven't used this in rails, but I am using js functions that to my 
mind are similar in the sense that I do not see a way out of inlining 
them.  Hopefully, in time I will learn.

*but I am still snobbish coming from the real languages ;)
