[Rails] Bad experiences with ruby on rails 3.0 :(
I just installed it and it seems like everything goes smoothly... but I'm having one hurdle after another installing a new application. I've had to get various dlls for sqlite, mysql and msvcrt-ruby18, or things out-right crashed. I've had an error where rails though I didn't have rake installed... but the gem was installed. I had to remove a file called rake.gemspec and reinstall rake for everything to work. I don't mean this to sound bad, but for a framework that claims to "just work", it certainly has it's share of bugs or hurdles. Maybe it's just because I run windows 7 64-bit. I dunno :( These seem like platform issues to me, an area that Java really does have a leg up on. At least when you install java... it works :/ I'll keep playing with it. I hope after these hurdles, everything will eventually just work. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] Gems installation on Windows
I'm trying to install some gems on my windows machine. Rails, rake, gem work completely fine. But when for example I'm trying to install gravatar_image_tag. It installs completely fine but on the windows command prompt its not being recognized. When I type in "gravatar_image_tag -v" I get an error message saying that gravatar_image_tag is not recognized whereas when I type in "rails -v" its giving me the right output with 3.0. I tried setting the path to the ruby lib folder in C: but it still is not working. Does it have to do with C: permissions? This is really irking me.

Why don't you install Mongrel and run your RoR apps through it instead of IIS? I've never used IIS but the stories told about it don't paint a pretty picture.

[Rails] I need help with a design
I have been working on an app but ran into many problems when i was applying authentication and authorization. I want to have the following users with the given abilities. Admin: full control on the entire system, but apart from login , email and password it does not require any more attributes company owner: should be able to created the number of companies the admin approves, and have full control over all of its companies, i would like to send an invitation to this user type user: should have different roles and has couple more fields than the company owner. The super user roles can only have full control over its own company. user cant create companies and should belong to a company and cant create companies. owners or super users should be able to create them via a crud client: if approved by the admin a company is clients are allowed to log in to the system, they only have read access to their personal data and an internal email system. Have lots of fields, ca be affiliated to a company but the admin has access to all clients in the system. company owners only have access to their companies clients , and the users only to the clients that are affiliated to their company. the problem comes now, I have 4 models at the moment, i would like authentication an authorization systems to be common to all of them. I have 4 abilities with cancan, and 4 resources with devise, but keeping up with everything was very redundant, i have 4 login page 4 path to signout, etc. If i unify all users in a single model an manage everything with fields in the DB im a little confuse on how to handle the company users relation since companies belong to owners in the current design but a company has many users and clients. I have been thinking of a has many through association with resources called ownership, employ and affiliation and use boolean fields or a user type field to differentiate each type of user. I would need a lot of conditional validations of course. would STI be helpful or would it require 4 of everything anyway? i want to have one login page and one ability class. Anyone has a better solution? i would appreciate some comments on this. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Yes, I do test-first for the last 8 or so years.

Actually, it isn't. When you're using form helpers inside a FormBuilder
(as in this case), remove the first argument (in this case "post").
Since you're not doing that, you're passing the arguments in funny
places, and FormOptionsHelper is getting confused.
Also, you don't need the parentheses.

That is the correct syntax for the f.select call, but may not be
supplying the correct values. What does the generated HTML from that
select look like? Or do you get the error before it even gets to that
point?
This is a case where collection_select will make your life easier.

[Rails] Drop-down menu from a belongs_to association
I'm trying to enter a client (from clients table (model), client_id)
into a form for appointments. The client_id is supposed to be entered
into the appointments table.
If I use
<%= f.label :client_id %>
<%= select ("post", "client_id", Client.all.collect {|client|
[client.name,client.id]}, :prompt => "Select client" ) %>
I get a drop down menu with clients, but when I submit it, it tells me
that it's blank. so I add an "f." to select, like this
<%= f.label :client_id %>
<%= f.select ("post", "client_id", Client.all.collect {|client|
[client.name,client.id]}, :prompt => "Select client" ) %>
but when i submit the form it gives me this error
undefined method `merge' for [["Angelina Jolie", 1], ["Barney Stenson",
3], ["Ted Mosby", 2]]:Array
Whyyy?

Re: [Rails] What is the best way to learn rails 3.0 with no prior rails experience?
I would recommend the book Agile Web Development with Rails. I know there is a new version for Rails 3. I think if you do the practical tutorial part, which if I remember is only maybe 100-200pages, you should just jump in. I came from asp.net and this worked for me. Then soon you will want to learn more ruby but seriously, I think you can become dangerous pretty quick with this book if you learn well doing self directed stuff.

I think his goal > was to make it look worse than it really was. I do know Java fairly well. I also know Ruby. Java is so inflexible by comparison that I'd be quite happy never to use it again (except in the context of something like JRuby). The big advantage of the Rails framework (that no one talks about) really is the Ruby language. This is why no PHP or Java framework can compare to it IMHO. > Spring 3.0, while not > ideal, isn't nearly as bad as the author was letting on... and I guess > I lost confidence in the author because he didn't even bother to > mention Spring.

[Rails] What is the best way to learn rails 3.0 with no prior rails experience?
What is the best way to learn rails 3.0 with no prior rails or ruby experience? I'm just curious about it and want to get started. Do I start with 3.0 or 2.0? If one is a very good OO developer and knows Java and Scala really well, would it be hard to get by with rails without knowing much ruby? (basically learning book at the same time). Any good books that do a fantastic and thorough job at not really explaining how an MVC works but how everything works in rails specifically? Something that doesn't just look at "the most basic case", but really gets in there above a basic CRUD app. I was flipping through a book about rails 2.0 at Chapters and the first 20 pages kept giving a sales pitch about how easy rails is, and yadda yadda. It tended to rip on java a lot... but since I know Java really well, I thought the author didn't know what he was talking about. His comparisons and examples of Java were biased... either comparing it to the language itself or to frameworks that I wouldn't even consider using because they suck (struts, etc.). I think his goal was to make it look worse than it really was. Spring 3.0, while not ideal, isn't nearly as bad as the author was letting on... and I guess I lost confidence in the author because he didn't even bother to mention Spring. Anyway, any advice to some lean yet informative and intelligent books would be helpful. I thought the Scala book written by Martin and crew was fantastic, so if a book exists at that caliber, I'm very open to reading it.

[Rails] Small issue with user and artist model
Ok, Ive got the following models:User, Artist and Video User is 1:1 with Artist (A user can register to be an artist) Artist is 1:M with Video (An artist can have one or many videos) Note that, before any user can register as an artist. He/she must already have an account with the system. i.e. He must be a registered user first. Hence the 1:1 relationship with User and Artist. Here is the problem, when an artist tries to upload a video: def create @video = Video.new(params[:video]) @video.artist = current_user.artist - For this particular user: In the User model, he has id => 29 In the Artist model, he has id => 1, user_id => 29 (user_id being the foreign key) This means, when the video record is saved to the db. It is saved as: id => 1, artist_id => 1 (instead of 29), title => 'foobar', etc How can such be fixed? Should I remodel my schema? I was thinking of just having one User model and have this as an STI. Member (Registered users) and Artist models would inherit from the User model.

[Rails] Re: find_by_id with multiple ids?
Thanks for that Walter.
Its getting me a little closer, I'll dig at it and hope I can get it
to play nice. I think find_by_sql is my friend here.
Many thanks

[Rails] Use .ogv videos with Rails
Hello, I'm trying to read .ogv files in my rails application and have
a problem with ff, it won't load the video but will show a big X
instead. After googling for a while I found out the mime types can be
a problem with FF and add the following lines into my /config/
initializers/mime_types.rb file according to what I red in this site
http://9elements.com/io/?p=306:
Rack::Mime::MIME_TYPES.merge!({
".ogv" => "video/ogg",
".webm"=> "video/webm",
".mp4" => "video/mp4"
})
But still no changes. I'm using rails 2.3.5 in development mode.
Any idea?

No, views probably won't help performance, just query construction, though I don't know enough about how they're implemented to be sure.

[Rails] Script acting differently inside of rake task
I've created a rake task that does various things, one of which is calling a script. When I call that script from my Rails.root folder, it works, but it doesn't work inside my rake task. [This is rails 3] That is, the following line works from bash: lib/daemons/mailer_ctl start However, inside my rake task, this line does not work: puts `lib/daemons/mailer_ctl start` The error message is: lib/daemons/mailer_ctl:3:in `require': no such file to load -- daemons (LoadError) from lib/daemons/mailer_ctl:3 So, it can't be a problem with the current working directory, because it found the file to execute. The daemon is very typical. The first few lines are: #!/usr/bin/env ruby require 'rubygems' require "daemons" require 'yaml' require 'erb' So, the require for rubygems must have succeeded, since it failed on the require for daemons. Why does it work from the command line, but not from the rake task? Thanks, -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Which template file is this from? Guessing it's in the the context of an
edit.html.erb or new.html.erb.
Also guessing that you probably need to have that hash available to both
the edit and new pages so you will probably need to set @durations using
a before_filter:
before_filter load_durations, :only => [ :new, :edit ]
private
def load_durations
@durations = { "30 minutes" => "30",
"1 hour" => "60",
"1 hour 30 minutes" => "90",
"2 hours" => "120" }
end

Yeah, I thought you might be doing that. That won't work.
The problem is that @instance_variables are always instance variables of
self. Inside an instance method (and controller actions are instance
methods), self is an instance of ServicesController.
Outside an instance method, however, self is the class object itself!
(That is, self is the object called ServicesController, which is an
instance of class Class). Thus, you're setting the instance variable on
the wrong object.

Exactly! You're defining the variable in the right place, so it's
getting copied to the view.

Congrаtulations and good luck! Remember to do all development
test-first (I recommend RSpec, Cucumber, and Machinist for this), and
set up version control (preferably Git) if you haven't done so already.

I was setting it at the top of the controller, thinking it would
propagate to all the methods.
class ServicesController < ApplicationController
@durations = {"30 minutes" => "30", "1 hour" => "60", "1 hour 30
minutes" => "90", "2 hours" => "120"}
def index
@services = Service.all
...
end
But then I moved it inside the method.
def new
@service = Service.new
@durations = {"30 minutes" => "30", "1 hour" => "60", "1 hour 30
minutes" => "90", "2 hours" => "120"}
It gave me another descriptive error message that led me to fix the form
partial.
<%= f.label :duration %>
<%= f.select ("duration", @durations, :prompt => "Select") %>
And it works now! XD
Sorry, I know this is probably very basic but I just started yesterday
my first Rails application outside of a tutorial book.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! :D

The only information I could find through that route was regarding multiple domains with duplicate information. I was just wondering if there was a way to handle it with rails. Thanks for your suggestion. Right now it doesn't appear to be affecting search engine ranking. This is my site and it is not a commercial site so that's why I decided to convert it first as a test. I do have one for a local business that needs to be converted. The rest are new sites and were published with ruby on rails.

You're right...I was thinking collection_select would work with a Hash,

Where in the controller are you setting the variable? Let's see the

Sum it all up and you will see that hosting on windows/iis can cost around US$2,000 per server and lots more if you are using .NET and bought visual studio (cost estimations are taken from where i live :) ) on the other side, ubuntu/apache/passenger/RoR cost $US 0.00 . -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

This may be a Google Webmaster Tools question, not a Rails one. But...you could set things up so that instead of photos.html routing to the same place as photos, it simply makes a 301 or 302 redirect.

Of course you did! The view has no access to model instance variables.
If you want to use @durations in the view, you'll need to set it in the
*controller*, not the model. Rails copies controller instance variables
to the view.

No such thing as an "instance hash". Did you mean an instance variable

By setting it in the controller. If this is at all confusing, you may
want to review the Rails Guides or other basic reference.

This had the disadvantage that the hidden field was never up-to-date as it was set during validation and thus always contained the value of the previous submission. > blah = Blah.new(params[:blah]) > > #now you have a instance of Blah. > > if blah.save > #now you have access to the non represented field > blah.non_represented_field > end This on the other hand, sorted me right out. I changed it slightly to: applicant = Applicant.new(params[:applicant]) if applicant.valid? #now I have access to the field I need do_stuff_with_non_represented_field applicant.save end What I was actually using this field for was to create a hash of all submitted values, compare it to the hash of the previous record and thus prevent double data submission.

[Rails] Passing a hash from the model to the view
I'm trying to display a drop-down menu by using an instance variable
from a model.
THIS WORKS...
<%= f.label :duration %>
<%= f.select ("duration", {"30 minutes" => "30", "1 hour" => "60"},
:prompt => "Select") %>
THIS DOESN'T WORK...
Now, I want to populate the values from the model like this
@durations = {"30 minutes" => "30", "1 hour" => "60", "1 hour 30
minutes" => "90", "2 hours" => "120"}
Then in the form partial I have this
<%= f.label :duration %>
<%= f.select ("duration", @durations.map {|d| [d.id, d.name]}, :prompt
=> "Select") %>
I get this error:
You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of Array.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.map
How can I initialize an instance variable or instance hash and then use
it on the form for the drop-down menu?

[Rails] Re: Dealing with an EAV database
By "avoid supplementing the database end of things", I mean I want to avoid adding more tables or databases to the database engine, inserting an additional database layer. Yes, I'm currently intending to "munge" the unorganized fields into a string, and deal with the parsing/processing at another stage. yes, it's inefficient, but it's a relatively small amount of processing, and hopefully it will get me to where I need to be within a short amount of time, which is a factor in this situation. By "not preserving record integrity", I mean that I am not updating any of these records, it's read-only. I want to pull the data and generate reports, both for screen and CSV stream. Yes, most of the processing would be in the Model, not the Controller, but since the model is not a good representation of the existing database schema, there's going to be some fudging going on. The question is whether it's worth bothering to model the final data output at all. I know that helpers are for presentation formatting, which is why I specified that the helper process would be for the "screen". Thanks.

[Rails] Converting an Existing Website: Removing Duplicate Meta Data
Hi, I have searched the forum to see if this has come up before. If it has and I missed it I am sorry. I'm fairly new to Ruby on Rails and have converted an existing site. To avoid annoying redirects and disrupting search engine results I updated the routes.rb file so that the old file name renders the correct rhtml file. For example, photos.html renders /photos. It works but the problem is that Google Webmaster Tools sees duplicate meta data and titles for each page. I would really appreciate information on how to correct this. I have been trying to figure out how to get google to ignore .html files or treat them as duplicate data but have had no luck so far. Thanks, Christine -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Re: [Rails] Re: Good idea to send encrypted password with activation link
PS, this is the authlogic explanation. Their point is that the token expires, as unless you put in other safeguards if the encrypted password might be able to be used again, for security purposes it really should be reset.

Perhaps you could post the pertinent code ? Do you have validation checks in
the form (via javascript) or just the ones in model ?
blah = Blah.new(params[:blah])
#now you have a instance of Blah.
if blah.save
#now you have access to the non represented field
blah.non_represented_field
end
Another approach might be to pass this value from the new action to the create
action through the form using a hidden field.

Re: [Rails] Re: Good idea to send encrypted password with activation link
I recently started with Authlogic and it specifically uses a specifically generated temporary token for such so that it is not necessary to send an encrypted password or anything else.

[Rails] Re: Dealing with an EAV database
Good and reasonable suggestions. I'd rather avoid supplementing the database end of things. The complete data set is fairly small <20,000 rows and queries are likely to only return 1,000 rows at a time. I don't think the string parsing is that complex, a couple of seconds would be OK, 10 seconds, not so much. It's for read-only reports, so I don't really care about preserving the record integrity. I'm wondering whether it makes sense to do half the processing in the controller/model, and half in some helper (for the screen aspect).

I've inherited an EAV database and there's really no option to remodel it. Data is stored as key_name, key_value pairs Trying to return a meaningful, unified recordset is far too complex to be efficient. I've decided to make use of the MySQL GROUP_CONCAT, and CONCAT_WS functions to return a fast query result, with the consolidated fields as one string.

[Rails] Re: Really need help with gems not being found
Colin, I naturally did send Frederick Cheung (hope I have the name right) thanks directly, although his answer did not actually solve the problem, and reiterated advice that I also found on (IIRC) stackoverflow. He did clue me in to checking the locations of ruby, rake and gems, and I found another clue on another site, where a similar problem was documented. Of course, I thanked that person profusely. I think that's pretty much adequate, and if anyone here had solved the problem, of course I would have thanked them. I understand quite clearly how these exchanges work. The point of my last post was that one respondent seemed more focussed on topics irrelevant to my question, made remarks that were gratuitously judgmental, and what he contributed was unhelpful to others with a similar problem. Signal to noise is important, is it not? Other than that – and with no desire to extend this uneccesarily – what point of etiquette did I miss, in your opinion?
