I am trying to run some functional (or are they unit?) tests on my application_helper.rb. So far, I''ve not had any success in being able to call the methods defined in application_helper.rb. Here is my app/test/functional/helpers.rb require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../../app/helpers/applicati...

My "application_helper.rb" become to large. I have basic functions that I use for all projects. Is it possible to define thoses functions inside an external "basic_helper.rb" and include it in "application_helper.rb" ?

Hi, I''m trying to send some emails with the same formatting as my pages & I can''t seem to access my display routines in application_helper.rb. I''m trying a hack to bypass this. At the top of my ActionMailer notifier script I''ve included application_helper.rb - my understanding is that this should arrive as a module and should be able to be used accordingly. <% require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../../he...

I have a simple Yes/No selection list that I am using in a number of places. Thinking that I could DRY things out a bit, I added it to application_helper.rb ... YES_NO = [ [ "Yes", true ], [ "No", false ] ].freeze So I figured I would use it there instead of in each model.rb where needed. anyway, in webrick screen, I am continually seeing this... script/../config/../app/helpers/application_helper.rb:6: warning: a...

Hi all, I have defined the following method in both application.rb and application_helper.rb: def still_logged_in? !session[:user_id].nil? end This method is called in a before_filter in my application.rb, as well as in my layout/application.rhtml and view/user/login.rhtml (for showing a login / logout button, etc.) I had to put it both places, otherwise I would get an '&...

Hi, I''m using the application_helper.rb file to create some useful functions for generating links by name. I understand that functions defined in this file are available to all views, but what about constants defined in that module? Is there a best practice approach for doing this other than accessing each constant via ApplicationH...

.... Anything I''ve tried so far exposes this behavior: the first render of a page uses the extended version, while every later renders use the original unmodified helper. I''ve tried to include my patch module in the plugin''s init.rb like this: require_dependency ''application_helper'' ApplicationHelper.send(:include, RedminePastebin::ApplicationHelperPatch) Also I''ve tried to define my ApplicationHelper in myplugin/app/helper/ application_helper.rb with the same effect. Both approaches used self.included hook to call alias_method_chain, like this: def sel...

Hi I''m trying to use the paypal ipn gem in my app but rails can''t seem to find it. I installed using gems and it is listed as being installed.

Hello, I upgraded my Rails app from 1.0 to 1.1.2. Basically everything worked on my development box. When I uploaded the changes (including the frozen 1.1.2 gems) to my webhost most things worked. However I had a problem with my application_helper.rb file. It wasn''t able to find the url_for_image_column method from the file_column plugin. Here''s the relevant code in applicaiton_helper.rb: # this tag helper creates a image tag for file_column fields that contain images def image_tag_for_image_column(object, method, version,...

...39;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 bundled_resource is allowed to load first, when it includes ''application_helper'' the include LoginEngine fails with an undefined constant. Is there a way to change plugin load order?
