I want to be able to write a script in Ruby which regularly consumes an XML feed from a fixed source, re-formats it, produces a large file for web delivery, and updates a database with the contained information. It''s simple - just running a script from a cron job, and some basic data manipulation... But I''d prefer to use the Rails database mapping constructs than roll my

If I have several models which exhibit the same functionality, it seems makes sense to create a mixin, ''include'' it in each model and save myself some work and repeated code. Where can I define a module which will be available to all models? I can''t seem to find a documented place for them. Alternatively, is there a Rails-standard way of achieving the effect? Ben

If I can get root access, I''ll use version control for deployment as well... It beats ftp and scp hands down for speed. Setting up a repository on a remote server means I get automatic off-site backup as part of the development cycle, and deployment/site update is as simple as a three word command line entry. Small changes on remote test sites can be made with Vim (or your *nix

The file column plug-in is great, but there is a problem with it. Well, two... But the other is well documented now. :^) Consider a time when you''ve created a CMS for a client and it''s been in use for over a year. Say 1500+ images have been uploaded so far. Now the client comes back with a simple request... ''Can you change the thumbnail size to 80/90, rather than

Starting to feel more confident and code is DRYing up nicely, but I''ve hit a brick wall here and hoping someone can help me. I''ve got a module, TrustRanking, which extends a number of model''s instance methods, and I want to extend their class methods too, but I can seem to work out how to do it. Simply including the module from the class works a treat for the

I''m about to get hosting for an on-line shop application in the UK. I''m leaning towards Bytemark, as they seem to have the right product range and attitude. Support sound knowledgeable and helpful and they show a marked preference for Debian, which I happen to be fond of. Has anyone tried them? Has anyone had good or bad experiences with other hosting companies

Just wondering what people tend to use for nullmailers on their centos boxes (i.e. a minimal outgoing-only MTA)? I guess the obvious solution is a minimal postfix config, but that seems reasonably heavyweight and easy to misconfigure - is there anything lighter floating around the centos universe?

I have been hacking around with this for a bit but want to see if there is an easy way: I am using Heroku and I have the wkhtmltopdf static binary in: rails_root/vendor/wkhtmltopdf I am not using any plug ins for wkhtmltopdf, just the executable, on purpose and want to keep it this way. My code wants to execute wkhtmltopdf: # tell wkhtmltopdf to convert html file to pdf

Hey all, I had some pressing questions about acts_as_ferret and had not heard about this mailing list yet, so I contacted Jens directly and he was kind enough to answer my questions. I would like to post our exchange here and continue the dialogue in hopes that it''s useful to someone else out there. Question #1: How should I be setting up my form helper? >>

Hi all I tried and tried and tried, but I still fail in creating a form with proper validation and stuff for foreign keys... So I''d really like to get some help here. I''m creating a booking site for DJ''s, and for every booking one can choose one of different countries: class Booking < ActiveRecord::Base validates_presence_of :country_id

All, I whipped up a small extension for Prototype to solve some modeling issues I was having on a large JS project. I know there have been serveral alternative "write JS in Ruby" type efforts, including ruby.js, rb2js, and prototype.js itself, but I was hoping to keep it as light as possible while gaining the most powerful aspects of derivation/mixins/callbacks. Much like the prototype

Hi guys, in development mode a module mixed into a helper class seems not to be reloaded inside app/helpers: class TestHelper include EvenMoreHelp #foo end module EvenMoreHelp # bar end the contents of #foo get refreshed, but not #bar... is there a way to fix that behaviour. I intend a full reload in development mode for obvious reasons. Regards Peter

I''ve been working on a plugin called Http Test where I add HTML validation and link checking to controller and integration tests through an after filter in ApplicationController. I used to mix in a bunch of methods that I needed into the ApplicationController class, but to me this had a bad smell, so I broke much of the code out into separate classes that I delegate to.

As is often the case when I tackle a new platform/language, I get the big picture very quickly (because frameworks are frameworks are frameworks) but its the nitty-gritty of the language that bogs me down... So I have some similar methods on a few of my model classes that I wanted to push into a helper. Now I reckoned that the Ruby way was to create a module and mix it in with include. However, I

There is some redundancy at the instruction format level in the x86 .td files. For example, in X86InstrFormats.td: // SSE1 Instruction Templates: // // SSI - SSE1 instructions with XS prefix. class SSI<bits<8> o, Format F, dag outs, dag ins, string asm, list<dag> pattern> : I<o, F, outs, ins, asm, pattern>, XS, Requires<[HasSSE1]>; // SSE3 Instruction
