Hi there, I have this form code in a view: <%= start_form_tag :action => "listByArtist", :id => artist.id %> <p><b>List by Artist:</b> <select id="artist_id" name="artists[id]"> <%= options_from_collection_for_select(@artists, "id", "name") %> </select> <%= submit_tag "List" %> <%= end_form_tag %> When I hard code the ":id" in line 1 everything works fine - in that the listByArtist contro...

Need some advice. I''ve got two modules: artists and paintings. In my home page, I''ve got a 2nd page that says "Browse paintings", which displays ALL paintings of ALL artists. This is being rendered by paintings#index. In another page, I should show all paintings of a specific artist ONLY. Meaning, paintings from ONE artist....

Hey all, I''m following along with AWDWR, specifically the unit testing. On page 148, it shows you how Test::Unit::TestCase will automatically define instance variables based on your fixtures. It doesn''t seem to actually work, though. It seems that both @artists ["beatles"]["name"] and @beatles.name are nil objects in my test, where as artists(:beatles).name works ok. What is the right way of doing it? I''d guess the one that actually works is right, but there''s a lot of stuff on google about the other ways that...

I am using helper the RESTfully generated helper methods in my views. My routes are nested so the helpers appear to need arguments passed to them, but it works without arguments. Say for example I have pages and comments. If I do page_comments_path without parameters, it works. However, when I run the rspec test, it fails and tells me i''m missing parameters. I tried to pass

dear all, thank you for reading. I have a dataset of artists and where and when they had an exhibition. I'd like to create an affiliation network in the form of matrix, telling me which aritist have been in the same at the same time. I manage to do it, but given that I have 96000 observation the program takes 30 months to complete. her what i have done...

Hi! I have two models, artists and songs. I have this in my route file: resources :artists, :path => "ackord" do resources :songs end Which gives me urls like this (I''m using https://github.com/norman/friendly_id to create and manage slugs): example.com/ackord/artistname/songs/songname-id Now I w...

Hi I''m building a small library to use in my Rails app which interacts with a 3rd party API. It fetches artists and tracks. So I have: lib/my_lib.rb lib/my_lib/artist.rb lib/my_lib/track.rb To get an artist I do artist = MyLib::Artist.find("Oasis") Which returns an instance of Artist if it finds (via 3rd party API) it or nil otherwise. Then I can call artist.tracks which fetches all available t...

While http://127.0.0.1:8000/status-json.xsl?mount=/live is fine for info on the server itself and the current track played it's missing a played history. I'd like to suggest adding history to status-json.xsl or to reduce the size of the json to the bare minimum that a Web base mediaplayer might need Add a new one at http://127.0.0.1:8000/playing-json.xsl?mount=/live Which will only

I mentioned sub-tagging in an earlier post. Here's a more in-depth mail on what i thought of. One of the debates going on here are whether ARTIST is worthy of life. Another is whether the average user will bother filling in the detailed info Jonathan wants. Of course, all tags are optional, but nevertheless we should have a tagging-system that pleases _the_users_, that is, everybody: 1.

Artist.first.medias returns all medias. Media is an STI. Media can be video or painting. How do I return all paintings of an artist? Only paintings, not videos? In my Artist model, I tried putting: has_many :paintings, :through => :medias In console, I do: Artist.first.paintings.all And I get: ActiveRecord::HasManyThroughSourceAssociationNotFoundError: Could not find the source

I''ve got an artist form. In this form I''ve got attributes that do not exist in the model that the form belongs to. However, I would like to submit these values for later processing. My virtual attributes in the form are: <%= f.label :foobar %> <%= f.text_field :foobar %> In the artist model, I created a getter: def foobar end When the form is

Hello, I am having difficulty dynamically building a query. I want to ensure that I''m using Active Record protection against SQL injection attacks. In PHP land, I would have built up the query in my logic & attempted to clean every variable - a bit tedious really. I want to be able to achieve something like: events = Event.find(:all, :conditions => [**DynamicallyBuiltQuery**

We are also in this particular boat. We are using Centova Cast which uses Liquidsoap as its AutoDJ and Centova say that if the album tag is stored in the file

I have been trying to access the "artist" and "title" metadata in the xml files as separate entities, But have found thar artist is missing, and title contains a combined form. My source is a modified version of ices-0.4 sending mp3 streams. The modification is to attach artist and title metadata instead of song, which seems tobe working, in that both the artist and title are

Artist is 1:1 with User. User has_one :artist In my artist model, I have: belongs_to :user accepts_nested_attributes_for :user However, in my artist _form, the name column from the user model does not display. I am doing: <% f.fields_for :user do |builder| %> <p class="fields"> <%= builder.label :name %> <%= builder.text_field :name %>

Hi all I use the plugin which supports foreign keys with migrations: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/Foreign+Key+Schema+Dumper+Plugin/versions/12 I have created the following migration file: class AddArtistsTable < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :artists, :force => true do |t| t.column :name, :string, :limit => 100 t.column :artist_type_id, :integer t.column :about, :text end create_table :artist_types, :force => true do |t| t.column...

...:Artist) I''m using single table inheritance to store all of the fields for the various Artist types in one table. I want the ''name'' attribute to be derived for Musicians (first_name+last_name) and Duos (first_artist.name+last_artist.name) and persisted so I can sort all Artists by name. I added code to Musician which redefined first_name= as: class Musician < Artist def first_name= (first_name) super(first_name) update_name # sets name to first + last end ... end For the Duo class, however, this didn''t work. It''s definition looks lik...

...ny :collections has_and_belongs_to_many :genres end when I put it at the end of the list, there''s only one artist per genre for some reason. I switch it back and forth several times importing from an XML with the same results - the first resulting correct relationships (99 records in artists_genres), while the second resulted in an artists_genres table containing 7 records - one for each genre. The way the records were inserted was with something like this: artist = Artist.new( my_arguments ) genre = Genre.find_by_name( my_genre_name ) unless genre genre = Genre.new( :name => m...
