[Rails] I'm restarting to work with ruby on rails, but having configurations problems
I have the Shovell source code from the book Simply Rails 2, but I'm having problems running it. "Getting started Here’s how to get rolling: 1. Create your databases and edit config/database.yml Rails needs to know your login and password. 2. Use script/generate to create your models and controllers To see all available options, run it without parameters. 3. Set up a default route and remove or rename this file Routes are set up in config/routes.rb." I took step 1, then since the models and controllers are already generated for a source code that already exists, I skipped step 2 and since a default route is already set for a source code that already exists, I skipped step 3. My config/roubes.rb has map.root :controller => "stories", but http://localhost:3000/ still doesn't load the stories controller index.

[Rails] Re: uniqueness validation perplexity
Many thanks, Colin & Frederick--I ended up with this:
def position_in_category_not_unique
@items = Item.find( :all, :conditions => [ "category_id = ? AND
position = ?", category_id, position ] )
single = Item.first( :all, :conditions => [ "category_id = ? AND
position = ?", category_id, position ] )
if @items.size > 1 || ( single && single.id != id )
errors.add_to_base "Position #{ position } already exists in #
{ Category.find( category_id ).header }."
end
end
Which works, but seems ugly. Frederick--I'm not sure how to use
validates_uniqueness_of with more than one field--can that be done?
Again, many thanks,
Craig

Essentially, Drew, you can map the column to be something else when you call
"humanize" on it. Try this:
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
HUMANIZED_COLUMNS = {:msg => "Message"}
def self.human_attribute_name(attribute)
HUMANIZED_COLUMNS[attribute.to_sym] || super

this was hours ago. Do I need to gain approval before posting

[Rails] Re: customize active record attribute display name in error message
Hi drewB,
You can change the "humanized" version of that symbol when it's
accessed via human_attribute_name.
Try this:
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
HUMANIZED_COLUMNS = {:msg => "Message"}
def self.human_attribute_name(attribute)
HUMANIZED_COLUMNS[attribute.to_sym] || super
end
end

Try it like:
Item.exists?(["category_id = ? AND position = ?", category_id,
position])
Or:
Item.exists?(:category_id => category_id, :position => position)
It wants the *value* of the conditions key in the options hash.

[Rails] Re: Drop down list ?
The weird thing is that it is working now with
f.collection_select :category_id, Category.all, :id, :header instead
of f.collection_select :category_id, Category.all, :id, :header,
{}, :multiple => false
so :multiple => false seems to be the problem. But why? Is this a
bug?
Again, many thanks,

[Rails] customize active record attribute display name in error message
Is there an easy way to customize the display name of the attributed used in a validation error message. For example, let's say I have an active record with the attribute :msg that is validated for presence. If is doesn't exist I don't want the user to see "msg can't be blank!"

[Rails] Re: dynamic form problem
I didn't quite understand what you meant. However, this whole approach is having numerous problems, though I did get an rjs focus to work. I'm not sure if it's because there is a table inside the form, but the basic thing is I want to change form fields using ajax. If you have a some text fields and some selects like say: <%= select_tag :data_format, options_for_select (['t1','b1','ascii'],@fmt) %> <%= select_tag 'transaction[level]', options_for_select (['','level-1','level-2'], level) If you select ascii, I want to dynamically change the transaction [level] select to be a different set of selections through an observer. and then add a checkbox: <%= check_box_tag 'transaction[EOG]', eog, checked %> It doesn't seem to work that I can update part of a form when there is a table involved. If I try to re render the whole form, the current problem is that I send the data back from the form_observer, but say a user types in an input field and he types 'abc'. The observer calls the server and sends 'abc', but after that he types 'xyz'. The server in this strategy will re render the form, and that field will go back to 'abc' erasing part of the users input. When I have tried to just use field observers and save all the fields in session variables, if I have a button that looks like a submit button, what sometimes happens is the user can rapidly type something and hit the submit button and submit will fire before the observer and it won't submit all of the data. The page I'm having the problem with seemed like it was working ok along time ago until someone may have changed it, they may have added a table. I'm not sure, but it may be the table that is giving me the trouble.

[Rails] nested model form error messages
I have a form that updates 3 models. To the end user its just a form and they don't need to know what is happening behind the scenes. My problem is that the error_messages_for prefixes errors on associations with their name. I have a user model that has many addresses. When a user is signing up errors on address fields show up as Addresses first name can't be blank I would rather if it just said => First name can't be blank Now I can get this if I do the following => error_messages_for 'user', :object => [...@user.addresses] but then I don't get errors on the user object like => Password can't be blank Is there a way to tell the user object to drop errors it has on its associations so I can do the following => error_messages_for 'user', :object => [...@user, @user.addresses] At the moment it will result in the first name being flagged twice. # Addresses first name can't be blank # Password can't be blank # First name can't be blank --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

The user did a create and after writing to the database there was an issue so I aborted the transaction and sent the user back to the new form (this is the standard practice when there is an error on create). My issue is that my objects now have bogus IDs in them causing the view to treat the object as created. To get around this I now recreate all my objects from the params and run valid? before rendering the new form so any errors will appear (I guess the save would have failed if there were errors on the objects themselves so calling valid is probably not needed). > Jeff > purpleworkshops.com > > > I could do a the following in the fail block > > @user = User.new(params[:user]) > > render :action => :new > > > but the errors are lost (and any changes or associations i created) > > > Or I could nil out the id > > @user.id = nil > > render :action => :new > > > It would be nice if the rollback did this for me (sort of like Object > > Transactions used to but without wiping out the errors and other > > information)?

[Rails] Re: Authlogic - Render Partial
Paul - Just an update. Although changing the partial as you suggested
allowed the "home" page to render properly, I think it also kept
Authlogic from working properly.
When the partial contains this:
<% form_for UserSession.new :url => user_session_path do |f| %>
I get nothing from Authlogic when I hit the Login button with no
credentials entered.
But when I revert to its original form:
<% form_for @user_session, :url => user_session_path do |f| %>
Authlogic gives me the following response:
1 error prohibited this user session from being saved
There were problems with the following fields:
* You did not provide any details for authentication.
So here is how I was able to get it working:
- Changed "home" controller as follows:
def index
@user_session = UserSession.new
end
- Changed view for "home" controller (i.e. - index.html.erb) as
follows:
<%= render :partial => "user_sessions/user_session", :locals =>
{ :user_session => @user_session } %>
This seems to work.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

[Rails] Ajax vs. Page Refresh
More of an opinion / discussion piece. When passing a lot of data, either via ajax, or simply refreshing the page and getting a lot of data back, is it better from a "amount of work placed on the server" perspective to do a full page refresh or to do an ajax refresh of parts of the page, data intensive or no?

That should be fine as far as I can see, though I don't understand the
extra [] in the html you showed. One question, you said that it is
not saving the new category id value, are you sure that it is not
saving it, or is it possibly just not displaying it when you come
round next time. Have a look in the db to see.
Another question, in an earlier post you showed the record being saved
by update_attributes, what are you doing if that fails? In other
words is the save succeeding?
I am getting to the point where I don't know what is happening I am afraid.

actually making the id nil doesn't work either. guess it still has created_at and updated_at items. Anyway. Is there a simple way to remedy this issue?

[Rails] Object has invalid ID after rollback
I suspect there is a standard way to handle this issue but I haven't found it. In my controller create action I have a Transaction. Lets say I'm creating a user object here. def new User.transaction do @user = User.new(params[:user]) #do some stuff set success if no rollback end if success goto success page else render :action => :new end end Now the problem here is when new is rendered @user has an id and it treats it as an edit instead of a new. I could do a the following in the fail block @user = User.new(params[:user]) render :action => :new but the errors are lost (and any changes or associations i created) Or I could nil out the id @user.id = nil render :action => :new It would be nice if the rollback did this for me (sort of like Object Transactions used to but without wiping out the errors and other information)? In my case User has many addresses and many orders so I also need to check and nil their IDs. yuck. What's the best practice here?

[Rails] Drop down list ? I figured it out, but...
If I replace
f.collection_select :category_id, Category.all, :id, :header,
{}, :multiple => false
with just
f.collection_select :category_id, Category.all, :id, :header
it works!
Is this a bug, or is it me being an idiot?

[Rails] Re: how can I use Apache to serve static content for a RoR app when I have only .htaccess access (and can't add Apache modules) [on Dreamhost shared server]
Note that the X-Sendfile method in the linked article is only supported by an Apache module, which doesn't appear to be installed on the default DH config. So you're back where you started... I'd recommend contacting DH support - I've never worked with them, but the support at Site5 has always been willing to install gems / Apache modules that were standard. --Matt Jones On Sep 25, 1:53 pm, Greg Hauptmann wrote: > thanks Casey - you no doubt correct :) I'll run with your suggested > 'don't over-engineer' concept... > > 2009/9/25 daphonz : > > > > > > > > > Greg, > > > It sounds like you have a contradicting desire here.

[Rails] Re: Authlogic - Render Partial
pabcas - Thanks for responding to my question. I really appreciate
the help. Changing my partial to use "UserSession.new" seemed to
work. The "home" page was able to render properly.
I checked the user_sessions_controller.rb file and I have this method
defined.
def new
@user_session = UserSession.new
end
Did you mean the home_controller.rb file?

[Rails] cost model for a RoR where users could upload lots of file? what approach?
Hi, Any ideas/suggestions re what a good cost model / approach would be if one's Ruby on Rails application was to be successful, but noting users (as part of the service/application) could upload lots of files (images etc). What's a good way of have: (a) a simple cost model for use of the site, e.g. free up to X but costs Y after this per every Z, (b) noting files/images etc have to be protected by the rails authentication / authorization (c) makes sure I won't start losing money (e.g. if users have to pay less than the cost of storage / bandwidth) Any good ideas/approaches?

[Rails] How to ensure two tables reference the same record in a third table?
class Part < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :lots has_many :components # or, maybe not end class Lot < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :part has_many :components end class Component < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :part # or, maybe not belongs_to :lot end In my domain, a "lot" of "components" has a part number (which I represent in RoR as a #belongs_to relationship, even though the term "belongs_to" is somewhat misleading). Each component in the lot has a part number which is the same as the part number for the entire lot. What is the best way to ensure that this consistency is maintained? That is, that all parts in a lot reference the same part number as the lot itself. One way to ensure the consistency is to remove the "part_id" column from the component table and to reference a components part number through the lot association, i.e. mycomponent.lot.part.number. The problem is, sometimes I want to look at all of the parts that have a given part number, and the only way I can see to do that is to collect all of the lots with a given part number and then collect all of the components in each of the lots, using something like: mypart.lots.map(&:components).flatten. Unfortunately, that returns an array of components instead of the dynamic finder that would be returned by mypart.components. A second way to ensure the consistency is to add validations to the Lot and/or Component models. I could do that, but I have been advised elsewhere that validations are best when augmented by database constraints. (See http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk/browse_thread/thread/3b023e81df58619d, if you are interested). Is there some database agnostic way to add this sort of constraint? Or is there some other mechanism to implement this? --wpd --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] Re: Non blocking http request
Thanks for the info.
delayed_job is a great piece but its just an overkill for what i
wanted.
I wanted something simple - not just from an implementation standpoint
- but resource too (not add any extra load etc).
"Keep in mind that each worker will check the database at least every
5 seconds."
For those who are interested, a solution was to use ruby system
('...&'). I fire it off (and forget) and let the OS mange it. (If
needed, you can also manage the queues via ruby Process)

[Rails] Re: Drop down list ?
Thanks again, Colin--in item.rb:
belongs_to :category
And in category.rb:
has_many :items
Item has a field category_id which I intended to populate with the
links from an item to its category. The field header in the category
db is where the name of the category is.
Am I setting it up wrong then to have:
<%= f.collection_select :category_id, Category.all, :id, :header,
{}, :multiple => false %>
in the form? It does show up as a drop down box with the names
populated in it.
Again, thanks super for helping me figure this out,
Craig

That seems to work, thanks alot, things are looking a little better now. I don't suppose there is any easy way to tell what the focus was when observe_form sends the call to the server ?

[Rails] Question about classes in Rails
Let me start by stating the fact that I consider myself a ruby / rails novice (above newb, just enought to be dangerous, perhaps ... :) ) I have an issue that relates to the ruby-openx gem, which allows ruby to talk to an OpenX ad-server via XMLRPC, However, I think my problem is kind of a more basic problem related to Rails, but I am sure it is also probably due to the way that certain things are implemented in the gem, so I'm hopeful I can get some basic guidance here on a problem that has me stumped. OpenX::Services::Base has a section of code that the other modules / classes in the openx gem use when they extend this base class to retrieve the connection to the OpenX server that looks like this: @@connection= nil ... def connection= c @@connection = c end def connection unless @@connection and @@connection.id @@connection = Session.new(configuration['url']) @@connection.create( configuration['username'], configuration['password'] ) end @@connection end The connection is saved as a class variable, and evidently in Rails, at least in production mode or when config.cache_classes = true, classes appear to persist past an initial request so they don't have to be reloaded on every request. The OpenX XMLRPC API expects authenticated sessions to pass back a session id that is retrieved when you successfully login via the XMLRPC API. The OpenX::Services::Session class handles this just fine. However, what ends up happening is that the session times out due to lack of activity, and the XMLRPC API does not provide a way to tell if a session is expired or not, so it typically causes 500 internal server errors in the Rails app that's trying to communicate with OpenX. What I would like to do is basically have a private copy of the openx classes that exists only during a rails request and do not persist past the end of the request, independent of the config.cache_classes setting. I believe this would solve the problem well enough for me to be able to use as a work-around. Is it possible to do in Rails what I am asking? I think the reason this is not an issue with the library as written is that it was not written with Rails usage in mind, but for usage with either a cron job or a CLI ruby script instead; however, I have a need for it to operate properly in a Rails environment. I'm not keen on either re-writing the gem code, nor am I interested in keeping the session alive via a cron job, as that's a hack IMO, and not a solution. So, if anyone has any thoughts, I'd love to hear them. Thanks. The gem's code can be found at http://github.com/aasmith/openx, for anyone who is curious. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] how to time out a query

[Rails] Re: how can I use Apache to serve static content for a RoR app when I have only .htaccess access (and can't add Apache modules) [on Dreamhost shared server]
Greg, It sounds like you have a contradicting desire here. You say you want the uploads to be served directly by the Apache server (so you don't have Rails touching it), but you still want some form of authentication to make sure people can access it (which I imagine is what your Rails app is doing). The overhead from processing a Rails request is quite minimal, especially is you're just doing some sort of user authentication and not some complex query/data gathering. My recommendation would be to use something like Paperclip (http://www.thoughtbot.com/projects/ paperclip) to help you upload files to your webserver, but protect access by serving the files through a Rails controller (something like this: http://www.therailsway.com/2009/2/22/file-downloads-done-right). And again, if you're really, really concerned about your server overhead (like you'll be getting tens of thousands of requests per hour), you can always move some of this logic into Rails Metal to decrease the overhead, but, again, it's unlikely that you'll need to do so. -Casey On Sep 24, 4:52 pm, Greg Hauptmann wrote: > (bump - still really interested in response if someone is knowable in this > area) > > 2009/9/23 Greg Hauptmann : > > > > > > > Hi, > > > Are there any Rails/Apache guru's that might know if it's possible > > (and how) to have the ability for users to upload their content to my > > RoR application but then subsequent access to such static content > > would be: > > > a) served by APACHE web server [to avoid the overhead of going via > > Rails], but > > b) still want to have an authentication/authorisation check to > > occur before they can access the content > > > The constraint is I'm onhttp://dreamhost.com/shared platform where I > > have only access to the Apache .htaccess file and I can't add my own > > Apache modules. > > > http://wiki.dreamhost.com/Apache > > http://wiki.dreamhost.com/Htaccess > > http://wiki.dreamhost.com/KB_/_Unix_/_.htaccess_files > > > thanks > > -- > Greghttp://blog.gregnet.org/ --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] Re: named_scope, sql-view.
Colin, Fred,
Thank you.
Colin,
it is not a typo, as I am learning ruby+rails I read that rails is
expecting
the plural of the name of the table. I went nuts changing the names of
the
tables. At the time I did not know that I could force the names, on top
of this
this Spanish language influenced the person who designed the DB and
rails is English oriented ;-)
I believe that inside :select you need the name of the table, and the
symbol of the association is not allowed. Of course, I maybe wrong but I
have not yet seen a sample code that lead me to think otherwise.
class Estado < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :masters
end
class Master < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :estado
belongs_to :municipio
belongs_to :localidade
has_one :migrante1
has_one :migrante2
has_one :migrante3
has_one :migrante4
##
##named_scope
##
named_scope :masculino, :conditions => {:sexo=>'masculino'}
named_scope :femenino, :conditions => {:sexo=>'femenino'}
## Test
named_scope :edo, :joins=>:estado, :select=>"estados.estado"
end
Let me mention that this database is a legacy from one of the previous
project/team (political scie...@tuffs University).
I did check the attributes, from the console:
>> ma=Master.edo
=> ma.first.attributes
=> {"estado"=>"Michoacan"}
This is progress, but what is the syntax to access it?
or this is it, and I have to treat it as a hash from this point on?
Although, not what I am looking for but related,

[Rails] Re: dynamic form problem
Since I rerender the form using ajax, I am not sure if document.myform.myfield.focus() will work and I have not had any luck. Is there a way to focus through RJS ? The best approach I can think of is to get rid of the form and have a field observer for each field, save the values in a session and when the user clicks the save button, I treat it as if it was a form submit. I'm not so much of a web expert on these kinds of things and I end up doing whatever I can make sense of if I can't find a decent example someplace ..

The reflection class is provided by ActiveRecord and this is a table-less data structure right now. Hence the weird need to pass stuff around. I would put it in the db, but this is data being pulled from a database and remapped in a way, as we're using a non-rails mapped oracle db. My app has to tie into existing data, so its a bit of a problem.

This looks a bit odd, why is it passing the id as a single element

It has to do with the name of the partial, Rails does some magic by looking at the name of the partial and then making a local variable (with the same name as the partial) accessible to that partial. i.e. a partial entitled "_current_user" will have current_user as a local whereas a partial entitled "_user_box" will have user_box as a local.

[Rails] Paperclip: Adding attachment to model on update not working
Hi, This is a bit of a special case. Ive got a POST form for a posts model which has a preview functionality. So if the user clicks on "Preview", then the model is saved and a new window opens with the preview. And the user can keep adding content to the post and previewing before he's satisfied and clicks on "Publish". And for every subsequent previews, i pull that original model from the DB and update it with the new attributes. So when the user enters some information but does not upload an attachment the first time, and then clicks "Preview", the preview works fine and a record is created in the DB. Now, if he adds an attachment and hits "Preview", the record is pulled from the DB and update_attributes is done on it. But paperclip throws an "ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches ..." error and the attachment is not uploaded. I think, its looking for the original attachment that has to be updated. How can I get around this issue? Any ideas? Thanks! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] Re: Drop down list ?
Thanks super, Colin--that really helps. I believe category_id is
being passed, as in the development.log
Processing ItemsController#update (for ::1 at 2009-09-25 06:34:23)
[PUT]
Parameters: {"commit"=>"Update", ... "id"=>"228", "item"=>
{..."category_id"=>["2"], ...}}
[4;35;1mPage Load (1.1ms) [0m[0mSELECT * FROM "pages" ORDER BY
position [0m
[4;36;1mUser Load (0.6ms) [0m[0;1mSELECT * FROM "users" WHERE
("users"."id" = 1) LIMIT 1 [0m

Redirected to http://localhost:3000/items/228
Completed in 102ms (DB: 2) | 302 Found [http://localhost/items/228]
and for different updates, the number in category_id [ ] is changing.
In my controller, I have the provided boilerplate for update:
def update
@item = Item.find( params[ :id ] )
respond_to do |format|
if @item.update_attributes(params[:item])
...
Am I missing something in the controller? Does a collection need to
be handled separately?
Many TIA,
Craig

[Rails] Re: Getting the server port number during initialization
I have one admin-like server that provides information that is used across a suite of other servers that provide various client-facing services. In order to synchronize changes to ... As I was typing, I realized that I was approaching the problem from the wrong direction. Instead of providing the address from the client- facing server, the admin-like server could get the address from the request. Thanks for saying just enough.

Let's say you have some articles and the administrator wants to order the articles display.

[Rails] Re: How to install country_select plug-in
Running the plugin install command from your rails directory should work. Run the following command from your CMD. make sure you are in your rails directory when running the installation script. script/plugin install should work. this will download the plugin ad put it in the "/vendor/plugin" folder. and as the helper function is defined under lib folder you should readily get the method in your views. let us know it worked or not.
