When I started developing my application I grouped my controllers in the followin g fashion: User::ControllerName. Now I''ve realized that the ''User'' module is a misnomer for my current controllers and I need to use the User module for something else, so I decided to change the controllers in the ''User'' module to ''Data''. I''ve changed th...

I''m using template components to modularize an application I''m working on and am really happy with the way it''s going. Unfortunately, all my attempts at writing functional tests for them fail. Trying to duplicate my normal controller tests I have: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../test_helper'' require File.dirname(__FILE__) +

Here is the scenario I am trying to achieve. Basically, I want to run the action "show" from my controller, without adding the "show/id". Standard: http://www.domain.com/controllerName/show/id I would like: http://www.domain.com/controllerName/randomstring (where randomstring is a field in my model/table, that is equivalent to a GUID -> and unique). I''m confused at how this would be possible, because you normally would create an action in the controller, that is th...

...one parent. To me the obvious way of doing this is by creating another table called category_maps (and a model called CategoryMap). The category_maps table would keep the parent_id/child_id relationships for the categories table. As far as the user experience, I want it to work so if you go to controllername/list_cats (with no id) it will display all cats with a parent_id of 0. If they go to controllername/list_cats/3 it should display all cats with a parent_id of 3 My problem is that when I try to implement this concept in the actuall code, I run into problem after problem so I must be missing some...

Can anyone supply me with a simple, succinct explanation of what the difference is between the "new" controller and the "create" controller that the scaffold generator produces? I run: > script/generate scaffold modelname controllername And now I need to do some work inside the controllername.rb file. For example, pulling a list from another database table to supply for a drop-down select in the "create a new whatsit" form. @sprockets = Sprocket.find(:all) Do I put this in new or create? Why? I''ve been...

Got a noob question for ya... When I visit http://localhost:3000/ I get the nice "Welcome to rails" page. To get to a controller I have to go to: http://localhost:3000/controllername What if I don''t want the welcome message and want / to resolve to a controller? How do I set that up? Thanks, Dave -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

...crash.log'' For request: http://mydomain/ i get "welcome ruby on rails page" with information about Rails, Ruby, Gems versions. I renamed index.html in public directory and wrote default "root" controller in routes.rb. But there was an error. I get only: NameError in [ControllerName]#[ActionName] uninitialized constant [ControllerName] Session dump: --- Framework Trace: usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.4/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:443:in `load_missing_constant'' /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.4/lib/active_support/depende...

Hello! I''m just starting out with Rails--and Ruby itself for that matter--and have a couple of questions regarding primary_key_prefix_type and non-integer primary keys. I see in the ActiveRecord documentation [1] that by default the primary key of a table "foo" is expected to be "id", though primary_key_prefix_type this can be changed to :table_name or

I''m trying to render a component that pulls information based on a parameter that is passed by a link_to item, but my params object is nil for the following code in the controller: records = ControllerName.find(params[:id]) but the error page also has this: Parameters: {"id"=>"7"} I''ve tried to access it (in the controller) using: variable = params[:id] but still nothing. I''m sure this is basic. Is there a way to see what params are being recognized...

I''ve stucked to such problem: I have html entities in database, after using scaffold I''ve got these chars not converted (I have strictly " and & in page source). It is what I need, but after making ./script/generate scaffold modelname controllername (recreating controller) I''ve got all special chars converted into entities like (&quot and others). How can I fetch data and display it without this conversion?

...omething? It would help if I understood these acls better but while using regular expressions is good for compatibility it obfuscates (at least for me) the text quite a bit. From what I see below, it seems as if all I have to do is join the server box to the domain and then change the bind dn to controllername$ in various and sundry places. This doesn't seem right though because I know that we need a userid and password stored in secrets.tdb. I can store controllername$ but the password for machine accounts is generated by the script and nobody knows what it is. I could change it using smbldap-passw...

Hey- I''m using ROR 1.0 and script.aculo.us 1.5.1. I''ve been trying unsuccessfully to render a partial in a DIV, but can''t seem to get the right combination of stuff to make it work. There seems to be a few different ways of going about it. Right now I can render a partial. What do I need to to render the partial in a div? Here is what it looks like so far: #

Hi, I am working on a table with name "addresses". However when I do a ruby script/generate scaffold Address, I am not able to access http://localhost:3000/addresses.

Does anyone know the easiest way to put up a splash page where people can add their email addresses to be notified when the site is ready? I want regular visitors to be directed to this page. How can i have this and still be able to test/develop the site? I know a lot of web apps do this while still developing, so i''m looking for a solution that i''m sure exists, but i cant

...hat the problem was there - I believe I was loading up fixtures that didn''t exist. I was calling fixtures :singular_table_name as opposed to fixtures :plural_table_name This time it happened with my controller. I generated the controller with the ./script/generate rspec_controller ControllerName command... It doesn''t appear that the specs are setup to fail to begin with, but if this were the default behavior, one certainly shouldn''t see a "No Server Running" I could create a short screen cast if someone would like me to, or elaborate... Best, Scott Tay...

hi @ all I create a new archiv.html.erb and a archiv method in the controller. Now, I would like to link from index.html.erb to archiv.html.erb. I tried to use <%= link_to ''archive'', archiv_xxx_path %> but it doesn''t run. It appears a error message "SyntaxError in xxx#index". Does anyone know, how I can enhance this problem? thanks a lot... -- Posted

I need to include another helper module apart from the normal two (ApplicationHelper and [controllername]Helper). The inclusion needs to be dynamic and based on external parameters (ie what helper that get included differ from request to request). Is it possible? How? /Marcus

Bleeding-edge story-writers, How are you structuring your specs? I am working on a new project and tried this: ./lib ./blah ./spec ./blah ./stories But it breaks autotest, so I moved stories parallel to lib and spec. Also what about suffixes? I have adopted "xyz_story_spec.rb", and "xyz.story" for the time being, with the line runner =
