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 <team></team> tags aren''t there. Is this right?

OK, the controller on the resource is simply:
def edit
@team = Team.find(params[:id])
render :xml => @venture.to_xml
end
Which creates the xml, but all I have back in the client is a hash,
{"foo"=>bar}
not the resource object I expected, like,
Team:object_id @prefix_options=(),
@attributes={"foo"=>"bar"}
?

Do you have a resource for it? I''m not even sure what the custom actions are supposed to return. I''d go by the source or the unit tests to see if you''re getting the expected result. -- Rick Olson http://lighthouseapp.com http://weblog.techno-weenie.net http://mephistoblog.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Darn, that should read render :xml => @team.to_xml Really this is scaffold code. As basic as it can get.

Hi
I''ve just read ActiveResource custom_method.rb more closely. Re:
# Person.get(:active) #=> [{:id => 1, :name =>
''Ryan''}, {:id =>
2, :name => ''Joe''}]
Looks like I''m getting exactly what I should expect to get.
This isn''t really very helpful. All I want to do is understand all
the relevant ways to interact with the standard ActiveRecord RESTful
API. Once I''ve got it figured I''ll post, promise.

Once I''ve got it figured I''ll post, promise.IIRC, #get/post/put/delete are lower level than what you''re wanting. Try #find Person.find(:all, :from => :active) Person.find(:one, :from => ''/companies/5/manager.xml'') Also, #edit will usually be a browser-only action for displaying a form. There''s no "XML forms", so the data from #show should be sufficient. @person = Person.find(1) @person.age = 21 @person.save -- Rick Olson http://lighthouseapp.com http://weblog.techno-weenie.net http://mephistoblog.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
