similar to: acts_as_tree with Modified Preorder Traversal?

hi, I''ve a normal Category model implemented with acts_as_tree (name, parent_id) that has_many :products (name, category_id). What I''m asking for is a method to fetch every product that belongs fall into a particular category and its children, eg: if I''m asking for a root node (/category/show/1) I need to display every product that have category_id = 1 AND every product

I am creating forum application which needs usage of acts_as_list or acts_as_tree or acts_as_nested_set. I am unable to decide among these. please could some one recommend from their experience? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I''m working with acts_as_tree to print an unordered list of items: Root -- Child ---- Child I''ve got this working, however I''d like to know if there is a more elegant fashion that I''m unaware of: #Takes a parent category and recursivley returns all children def find_all_subcategories(category) if category.children.size > 0

Hello, I have a tree structure that needs to be converted into a nested set. A great deal of work has already been done on the tree items, so maintaining the integrity of the id''s is mandatory. However I need the ability to access entire branches of the tree, which is what Nested set does. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to efficiently transfer the tree to the nested set and

I am working on an Rails application that uses a pretty complex category structure through out the site. I have defined a table to house all the info and a FK to reference parents within the table CREATE TABLE categories ( id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, name varchar(50) NOT NULL, parent_id int(11) default NULL, constraint fk_category_id foreign key (category_id) references

I''m currently using acts_as_tree to display threaded Comments on my forums-like site. It''s waaay too slow to display a page with 1,000 comments, as it''s issuing a TON of selects. I''m pretty sure I want to convert to the nested set model, using acts_as_nested_set or acts_as_threaded. This should give me the performance I''m looking for. The problem,

I''m using acts_as_tree to maintain a hierarchy of categories (each top-level category can contain multiple categories and each sub-category can contain multiple sub-categories, etc.). I want to be able to find all parents of a particular category. I realize that I can use @category.parent or even @category.parent.parent to move up in the hierarchy, but I need this to happen dynamically

That looks like it does a preorder depth first traversal (I think). I'm looking for postorder. Is there a trivial transform between the two? (I don't know one.) Am I wrong about the preorder/postorder? If not, anything lurking for postorder traversal?

Where can I see the API acts_as_nested_set constructs? I''ve read its page in api.rubyonrails.com but I don''t see how to manage the tree from there. -- fxn

I have a model using acts_as_tree which is working fine. Being new to Ruby I''m don''t know what enumerator is best to use for traversing a tree by depth. I can write one, but before I do I wanted to know if there is there an enumerator for traversing trees available that the community recommends?

Alright, I got this table with lots of entries for menus. There''s several menus (with their own model since each menu got some special information). Now, I want to be able to specify the order of the menu entries inside the menu. acts_as_list seems to not quite do the trick since it does ordering "globally" on the whole model and acts_as_nested_set seems like overkill since

Hi, I''m trying to get act_as_nested_set working, and I''m puzzled.

Too obvious!

Hello list, I think I have a rails related RSpec problem with a mock going out of scope on a recursive call to a model. The code is at: http://pastie.textmate.org/79821 if you want to see it highlighted. I have pasted it below as well. Basically, I have an acts_as_nested_set model called "Node", which works fine. I have a function which finds the language name of the node instance.

Hello, I am using acts_as_nested_set. My problem is that the columns "lft" and "rgt" get the value 0 if I create a new entity. If I delete an entity I get negative values (-1, -2, -3) - but for all entities. Is there anything missing? Is there any example for "acts_as_nested_set" in the web? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi I was wondering if acts_as_nested_set can be used safely with concurrently updates? The fact that so much of the tree needs to be rewritten on inserts concerns me. Is anyone actually using it. I noticed that the status of acts_as_nested_set was unclear at the time the rails book was written. Regards, Glen
