I mentioned this in another thread, but I''ve got a formal request now. After reading tons of stuff about REST, I don''t really get it. I need to see an example. I''d like someone to write up an example blog app with these requirements - RESTful using the simply_restful plugin (or edge rails) - allows posting of comments to articles - has categories for posts No need

I don''t even know if this is possible. I want to use an object as an attribute for one of my classes. I can save it to the db fine, looks like...but I need to be able to use it after I pull the object from the db. Right now the attribute is just a String, but I need it to be a Runt::Intersect object. Does anyone know how I can unserialize the attribute so I can use it as an object?

I need to split some information up between two servers, and wanted to use REST for it. I can write the REST server really easily...but I don''t know how I can actually use it. I downloaded Rails trunk to mess with ActiveResource, but it seems that it doesn''t have create functionality enabled yet. Is it possible to use AR fully? If not, what''s the best way to consume

Hi all. I''m a new convert (or at least I want to be a convert) to Rails. I''ve got the book, have read it, done bits and pieces of the demo, and tried to apply it to a rather complicated DB I''ve got here. I''ve got a ton of questions, and before I bore everyone here, is there a dedicated forum for Rails newbies to get help? Yak -- Posted via

How does one do a SELECT MAX query in rails? I''ve searched and searched and tried lots of things with no luck. I want to implement "SELECT MAX(column_name) from table_name and have it return the maximum value from column_name. I just need to get that one value, not the whole object... Thanks for any ideas...

but the model isn''t the right place to send mail from. That just seems like pretty bad coupling, generating emails from within the model. Or is that not a problem? On top of that, these emails need to contain links back to my site...which is a bit of a pain in ActionMailer, but I found directions on http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoUseUrlHelpersWithActionMailer however I

Hello, Just wondering if someone here as successfully ported Liquid to use with a database. I would like to try it out but not sure how Liquid integrates with current templates.

I have a STI class tree. I want to set some default values (calculated values so I can''t set it in the database as defaults) on every created instance regardless of what subclass is actually instantiated. So I figured adding a after_create callback in the top class in the hierarchy should do the trick. It seems it doesn''t get called :( Code: class SuperClass <

In DHH''s keynote, he alluded to doing logins with REST. Has anyone implemented this, and if so, would you mind elaborating on how you did it please? Thanks in advance. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have a couple forms that I''d like to be able to validate and automatically populate, but it shouldn''t be based on AR. In fact I often have a bunch of small forms that I can''t really justify writing a whole new model class for anyway. I''d like to validate the form input, and then use rails helpers to automatically populate the form if validations fail.

Hi guys, does anyone know what happened to the manuals site? I have not been able to connect to http://manuals.rubyonrails.com for two days (I started reading all about RoR yesterday and finished most of the tutorials i could gather, and really enjoyed playing with the rails).

Hey guys and gals, I have the following object that has acts_as_versioned: class Note < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_versioned belongs_to :user end The schema for my notes table is as follows: create_table :notes, :force => true do |t| t.column :id, :integer t.column :noteshare_id, :integer t.column :user_id, :integer t.column :title, :string

I have two models, Stop and Station, they relate one station to many stops. Stop has_one :station Station belongs_to :stop So I can do @station.stops, but I cant do @stop.station, is this right? For example in the view I have: <% for @stop in @stops %> <tr> <td><%= @stop.station.name %></td> <td><%= @stop.time.hour.to_s + '':''

I''m using bundled_resource, login_engine, and a few other plugins. It appears Rails considers plugins in alphabetic order. Turns out that there is a particular order that will work and alphabetic ain''t it. The login engine must be loaded first. Bundled resource then includes ''application_helper'' and the application helper includes LoginEngine. If

I''m trying to use has_many :through, since my join model deserves being more than just an intersection table. But when I try to break the association, the break only seems "temporary": Let''s say my two tables are Users and Colors, and the join model is Favorites. user = Users.find(1) user.colors.length >> 2 c = user.colors.first >> #<Color:....>

Can anyone (David?) shed some light on what exactly this warning is complaining about? I started seeing it when I upgraded to Rails 2.1 RC1 and the latest RSpec from git. I''m getting it in some helper specs that I''m writing. And yes, I am including a module there, to reuse some utility methods I originally wrote for my controller tests (I''m switching to specs

Hi I''d like to know how to have ActiveResource generate a URL for the /teams/1/edit type of resource. I''ve got custom_methods.rb and have used Team.find(1).get(:edit) This generates http://localhost:xxxx/teams/1/edit.xml But all I get returned is a hash of the attributes (in this case of team 1), rather than an object of team 1. In other words the

I''d like to propsoe that the RubyOnRails mailing list forks into three lists. PROBLEM: * The list is getting swamped with traffic, making it hard to use and even harder to follow. * Many, many messages get lost, with no reply. * Due to the overwhelming traffic, it''s hard for beginners to get the help that they need, since their messages get lost in the shuffle, and
