[Rails] displaying attribute from related table with a collection_select
I have two tables: Area, AreaType Area belongs_to :area_type AreaType has_many :areas In my view, I'd like to select from a list of Areas, however, instead of using the :area_type_id attribute, I would like to use the associated area_type names. Here's what it looks like now: %= f.collection_select(:area_id, Area.where(:subject_id = @search.subject_id), :id, :area_type_id, {:include_blank = true} ) % What I want is: %= f.collection_select(:area_id, Area.where(:subject_id = @search.subject_id), :id, area.area_type.name, {:include_blank = true} ) % Anyone know how I would go about creating the area.area_type.name symbol to user here?

[Rails] Re: displaying attribute from related table with a collection_select
Well that was easy! After a little trial and error, I created a new method in the area.rb and used the name of that method in the collection select :-) Cheers On Jul 2, 11:48 pm, @demetriusolsen demetri...@hotmail.com wrote: I have two tables: Area, AreaType Area belongs_to :area_type AreaType has_many :areas In my view, I'd like to select from a list of Areas, however, instead of using the :area_type_id attribute, I would like to use the associated area_type names.

[Rails] Can't upload files when WEBrick running in daemon mode.
Hi, When running my app in development with WEBrick in daemon mode I get the following error when trying to upload a file: Errno::ENOENT in UploadController#create No such file or directory - public/data/upload/google |Rails.root: /home/resource_portal/website| Application Trace http://localhost:3000/upload# | Framework Trace http://localhost:3000/upload# | Full Trace http://localhost:3000/upload# |app/models/upload.rb:29:in `initialize' app/models/upload.rb:29:in `open' app/models/upload.rb:29:in `filesave' app/controllers/upload_controller.rb:16:in `create' rake-0.8.7/ruby/1.9.1/gems/actionpack-3.0.3/lib/action_controller/metal/implicit_render.rb:4:in `send_action' rake-0.8.7/ruby/1.9.1/gems/actionpack-3.0.3/lib/abstract_controller/base.rb:151:in `process_action'| ... I do not get this error when not running in daemon mode. I've googled a bit but can't find a reason. Does anyone have any ideas? Also the reason I want to run in Daemon mode is because I have to host my app on a uni virtual machine, and start the server after logging in with ssh. When I close the ssh connection the server (if not running in background) also seems to get killed. Any ideas as to how I may be able to work around this?

It's only intended for desktop development work; you would be better off using e.g. unicorn (my preference) or passenger in a production environment.

[Rails] Does the asset pipeline (RoR 3.1) waste cycles?
With the Ruby on Rails asset pipeline in RoR 3.1, it's unclear if the .coffee and the //= require files get processed only once or with each asset request. For example, I have a file that looks like this: //= require source/main.js.coffee //= require source/second.js.coffee //= require source/third.js.coffee Ideally, the server would compile these to js ONCE, then bundle them, then create a static file. Otherwise it's going to be wasting cycles repeating effort. Can someone clarify what happens?

[Rails] when to add validations to database
Normally all my validation is done in my models. Michael Hart in his rails tutorial explains why the uniqueness validation should also be done at the database layer ( http://ruby.railstutorial.org/chapters/modeling-and-viewing-users-one#sec:the_caveat). I am curious if people have experienced other validations that should also be done at the database layer? thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Ruby on Rails: Talk group.

Re: [Rails] Does the asset pipeline (RoR 3.1) waste cycles?
In a development environment it recompiles the assets on every request. When in production it does it once and adds a hash to the filename for caching.
