Did rails or shoulda go insane on the inflection of ''taxes''?

I have a model ''xp_jurisdiction_taxes'' which rails (3) created
correctly.

Another model ''xp_jurisdiction_states'' has many
:xp_jurisdiction_taxes.

In my spec I am using a shoulda helper to test the association but get the
following error. BTW, greped the whole project just in case and the string
''taxi'' exists nowhere.

  1) XpJurisdictionStates
     Failure/Error: it { should have_many(:xp_jurisdiction_taxes) }
     NameError:
       uninitialized constant XpJurisdictionStates::XpJurisdictionTaxis
     # ./spec/models/xp_jurisdiction_states_spec.rb:4:in `block (2 levels)
in <top (required)>''

Not sure if this is a rails or shoulda issue (I am starting to think it is
shoulda). Any input?

Re: Did rails or shoulda go insane on the inflection of ''taxes''?

Correction --- I had originally misnamed the models by plural, however once
fixed now, still same problem. I think this is a shoulda issue as I can
associate and access the models and associations correctly in the console.

Can you confirm the model, association and table names please?

Thanks Colin, here are the models and tables. Also to be sure went in to db
console and verified the actual table names just in case something went
awry. Also at bottom are the three rspec/shoulda errors. I have to be doing
something wrong but if I am I don''t see it.

class XpJurisdictionState < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :xp_jurisdiction_taxes
end

class XpJurisdictionTax < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :account_subcode
  belongs_to :xp_jurisdiction_states
end

  create_table "xp_jurisdiction_states", :force => true do |t|
    t.string   "state_code"
    t.string   "state"
    t.string   "billing_item"
    t.string   "billing_memo"
    t.datetime "created_at"
    t.datetime "updated_at"
  end

  create_table "xp_jurisdiction_taxes", :force => true do |t|
    t.integer  "xp_jurisdiction_state_id"
    t.integer  "account_subcode_id"
    t.decimal  "tax"
    t.datetime "created_at"
    t.datetime "updated_at"
  end

       Expected XpJurisdictionTax to have a belongs_to association called
xp_jurisdiction_states (XpJurisdictionTax does not have a
xp_jurisdiction_states_id foreign key.)

that should be :xp_jurisdiction_state.   It belongs to one state so singular.

If you run a console and type
"tax".pluralize you will get "taxes" which is correct. 
However on
rails 3.0.5 if I type "taxes".singularize I get taxis which is not
what you want.  I assume it is using the same rule as would apply for
axis and axes.  The solution is to specify your own rules for your
xp_jurisidiction_tax and taxes and then you should be ok.

Again should be singular, so that explains that problem I think.

Re: Re: Did rails or shoulda go insane on the inflection of ''taxes''?

It looks like a plain old AR inflection error; you can see it in the
console:
> "tax".pluralize
=> "taxes"> "taxes".singularize=> "taxis"

Rails stopped accepting inflection-related patches ages ago, but you can add
more; google "adding activerecord inflections". The rails docs have a
few
examples in the table_name method documentation:
http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/Base.html#method-c-table_name

Thanks (both Colin and Phil), fixed this above (duh). Also added to my
inflections:

inflect.singular ''taxes'', ''tax''

So in the console:

ruby-1.9.2-p136 :002 > ''taxes''.singularize
 => "tax"

and also plural:
ruby-1.9.2-p136 :003 > ''tax''.pluralize
 => "taxes"

*BUT* some piece of code is still deciding that I have ''taxis''
and not
''taxes'' --- spec still failing:

  1) AccountSubcode
     Failure/Error: it { should have_many(:xp_jurisdiction_taxes) }
     NameError:
       uninitialized constant AccountSubcode::XpJurisdictionTaxis
     # ./spec/models/account_subcode_spec.rb:16:in `block (2 levels) in <top
(required)>''

  2) XpJurisdictionState
     Failure/Error: it { should have_many(:xp_jurisdiction_taxes) }
     NameError:
       uninitialized constant XpJurisdictionState::XpJurisdictionTaxis
     # ./spec/models/xp_jurisdiction_state_spec.rb:4:in `block (2 levels) in
<top (required)>''

So... all the important tests are failing but not my shoulda checks on my
model relations. I can just drop these lines in my tests and be ok as other
code is essentially checking these via its actions, but is leaving a mystery
still open as to why. It seems to me that shoulda is doing something funky
in determining what it expects, which on the surface seems strange (I mean,
if I say the relation should be :xp_jurisdiction_taxes.... there is nothing
to infer... that symbol is the same in the shoulda/rspec and in the class it
is testing...

Anyhow, if you all have any other input, appreciated. Seems to me next step
will be to see if I can trace this through the shoulda source code, although
not really in a place timewise right now...

It seems as if shoulda is not picking up the inflections for some
reason.  I don''t use shoulda, can you output debug during its
execution?  Is so what happens if you output
"xp_jurisdiction_taxes".singularize and "taxes".singularize?

Good question... and rails gets it right:

ruby-1.9.2-p136 :004 > ''xp_jurisdiction_taxes''.singularize
 => "xp_jurisdiction_tax"

When I have a chance will start looking at the shoulda source...

I meant to output that during the test itself if possible, to make
sure that the inflections have been picked up at that time.

Good idea, sorry.... so "puts
''xp_jurisdiction_taxes''.singularize" while
inside a spec (cant put it directly inside the shoulda call though) gives
us:

xp_jurisdiction_tax

In that case it looks as if you are right about it being a shoulda
issue, not using the inflections correctly.
