[Rails] subclasses with inherited_resources?
I'm trying out inherited_resources and so far so good. However, one problem I've run into is that it's very difficult to customize inherited_resource behaviour in subclasses. Looking through the source I see it uses things like undef_method and class_attribute. For example, if I have the following controllers: class ItemsController inherit_resources actions :new, :create def create # custom stuff here creat! end end class VideoController < ItemsController actions :new, :create, :show end videos controller will not respond to /show because inherited_resources undefined it in ItemsController. One thing I tried was to call inherit_resources again at the top of VideoController, so it reloads all of inherited_resources default actions, but also over-writes the custom :create action in ItemsController Am I overlooking something or is IR not supposed to be used for inheritance like this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] Speeding up rails boot time in development?
I recently switched from REE to ruby 1.9.2 and I was shocked by how long it takes for rails to startup. This isn't as much of an issue in production, but in development and test environments it's almost unusable because it's killing my workflow. for example, sometimes I need to run a single test or play around in the console. I've made sure I'm only loading gems I need and I've switched to the RVM patched version of 1.9.2 which is a big help. I'm also using spork for my tests. However, it still takes 20 + seconds to load a console. Also, spork is fantastic for unit and functional tests but can't be used for integration tests because spork requires config.cache_classes to be set to false, but integration tests are painfully slow with that setting. Is there anything else I can do to speed up the startup time, especially in the development environment? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] nested routes with namespaced models
Hi all. I'm having some trouble with nested routes and duplicate namespaces. I have an Article and Advert model, both with an associated Publication model: class Article has_one :publication end class Article::Publication belongs_to :article end class Advert has_one :publication end class Advert::Publication belongs_to :advert end Each Publication model is different enough that it makes no sense to have just one Publication model with STI or polymorphism. Also, there are numerous other models such as Cancellation, Payment etc that are namespaced for the same reason. here's the routes I have for the above resources: resources :articles do resource :publication, :module => :article end resource :adverts do resource :publication, :module => :article end this gives me article_publication_path and advert_publication_path which are fine. The problem occurs with polymorhic_url (used by form_for). Given [@article, @publication], it will try to generate article_article_publication_url which of course hasn't been defined. I've tried several of the options in the rails routing guide to no avail so for now, I'm manually specifying the path in form_for has anyone come across something similar or do you know of a potential solution? thanks, Ev -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] Manipulating attributes between database retrieval and return from finder
Is there a way to manipulate the attributes of an ActiveRecord-based model after it is retrieved from the database but before it is returned from the finder? I have tried defining an after_find callback method but was unable to access attributes that come from the database from this method. I tried accessing them using self.an_attribute and read_attribute but both raised an attribute exception. I am trying to execute an upgrade-in-place strategy. When I deploy the latest version of my app one of the attributes on every existing record of a particular table will no longer be usable until converted to a new format. Rather than take the app down for 12 hours to upgrade the existing data I thought it could be upgraded on-access.

[Rails] Validating the presence of two associated objects from both models
I have a model “Conversation” and a model “Leader”. A Conversation is always led by exactly 1 Leader. I’ve overridden Conversation’s “validate” method to validate the presence of an associated Leader model. If I add a similar validation to the Leader model, however, Conversations can no longer be saved on creation because the Leader model is invalid. On creation of both a new Conversation and new Leader how can I validate in each model that it is associated with the other? Is there a best practice? The closest I’ve come is to override Leader’s “validate_on_update” method to ensure the presence of a Conversation but that still allows new Leader objects to be created without a Conversation, filling my tables with junk. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] REST and context
hi all. I'm developing my latest rails app using a REST style. I've hit a bit of a problem with context however. Let's say I have an Item model. I'm using edit/update to handle the processing, but the model is edited differently depending on the context. sometimes all I'm doing is changing a 'status' attribute and don't need to show the entire form. In other cases I could be editing associated objects along with the main objects, and then there are user permissions to consider. Some user can edit some of the attributes and others can't. Even confirmation messages stored in flash after a successful update vary. All these operations are essentially an edit/update but the different contexts make it more complicated. For now I'm using separate actions for each type of update so for example, changing the status is handled by /items/mark_as_sold. Another way I could do this is to have a url parameter in the call to edit or update and process the request differently depending on the context but this gets messy. How do other developers handle these situations? Is there a 'rails way' to do it? thanks ev -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] Understanding “create_association” and i nvalid objects
The documentation on the “create_association” method of the “belongs_to”
association reads:
> create_association(attributes = {})
> Returns a new object of the associated type that has been instantiated with
> attributes, linked to this object through a foreign key, and that has already
> been saved (if it passed the validation).*
My expectation from this documentation is that calling
“object.create_association” will return the newly created object if both
objects save successfully and “false” if either object fails to save (due to
failed validations, for example); or throw an error.
My experience, however, is that “create_association” returns the newly created
object regardless of whether it saved successfully or not.
How can I catch and handle a situation where “create_association” instantiates
and links a new object but is unable to save it?

Do you mean the error messages from a model instance? You can just use
ruby's standard file io methods to read and write a yaml file:
File.open('errors.yml', 'w') do |out|
out.write(my_obj.errors.full_messages.to_yaml)
end
to read it back in:
errors = YAML.load_file('errors.yml')

I'm doing this so that I can display a link to a relevant help page on certain types of errors. At the moment, I'm doing this by determining the type of error based on the error message. However, this is going to get messy when I translate my app into multiple languages. Does anyone know of a way to determine which validation caused a specific error? thanks Evan --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

[Rails] ActiveRecord validations ignore SQLite3 timeout configuration
Hey all, Sorry if this is not the right place, but I could not find anywhere more appropriate. I ran into http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/8811 over the past few days, and it's a very nasty bug. The fact is, validates_uniqueness_of and validates_existence_of (at least) do not respect the SQLite3 timeout database configuration, and cause SQLite Database Busy exceptions. The bug was moved to low priority two years ago, but I don't see how this is low priority. We have background threads with SQLite connections, so the validations must respect the timeout policy. Otherwise the system randomly blows up when trying to create new model instances (since that will trigger validations). It's not that the threats truly horde the database, they are quick running tasks. It's just that a single collision will cause an exception due to the validations not respecting the timeout policy. At present we are forced to re-write those validations in a safe way. Thoughts?

[Rails] URL-encoding and decoding on Rails
I have a URL parameter that has special characters on it, so I do URL
encoding as such:
my_url(:email => CGI.escape("someemail+extens...@mail.com")
Now, I would expect to call a CGI.unescape(params[:email]) on the
action receiving this parameter, and this is true according to my
functional tests.
But when I tested this on the browser, it failed because, apparently,
I didn't need to do any URL-decoding, and when I did it gave me
"someemail+extension mail.com".
Is there a built-in URL-decoding on the controller side? If so, how is
it that it doesn't work on my functional tests.
I tested this on Safari and Firefox 3 browser, by the way.

[Rails] Joining three objects uniquely using :has_many
I've confused myself. I have three objects: level, product, part. Together they classify a repair type. - Replacing a part in a product has a level of difficulty associated with it. - The same part replaced in a different product has a different level of difficulty. How can I model an association among these? I have created a join model, "Repair class," and connected all three using :has_many through. However, this does not prevent multiple records where the part and product stay the same, but the level changes. In other words, I end up with multiple levels assigned to the same part/product combination which does not happen in the real world. What's the best way to proceed?

[Rails] Can not figure out why validation fails
Good morning.
I can not for the life of me figure out why validation of objects of
one of my classes always fails.
http://pastebin.com/m754b5bee
The highlighted lines are where I am getting errors. The unit test
fails on the highlighted line every time. If I
remove :olive_oil_sources from validates_presence_of validation works
fine.
I have also tried writing my own validate method:
if ( olive_oil_destination.nil? || olive_oil_sources.empty? )
errors.add_to_base("blah")
end
which also fails even though each individual piece of the if
expression evaluates true when run under console.
Why is this object not validating? Driving me nuts.
Thanks.

[Rails] Adding attributes to subclasses created using polymorphic associations
Good evening. I have a class, CustomerRequest, which I have subclassed into three other classes, all different types of customer requests. I chose to use polymorphic associations to map the subclasses in my database. For one of the subclasses, InstallRequest, I have generated a new model and defined a new table in the generated migration. However, when I instantiate InstallRequest in the console the only attributes that appear in the object are those of the superclass, CustomerRequest. The columns I defined in the subclass' migration do not appear as attributes of the object. -I have verified that the subclass, InstallRequest, is defined as a subclass of CustomerRequest, not ActiveRecord, in the model file. -I have verified that the database has been migrated to the latest revision. Is this expected behavior or is there a bug in my code? I was expecting the subclass to have all of the attributes of the superclass as well as those defined in the migration file generated for the subclass. If this is expected behavior how can I map the columns of the subclass' table to the subclass objects? Thanks.
