Hi, A question (& possible suggestion) about function calls. Is there an R idiom to eliminate the redundancy in the following common situation? foo <- function(x, control=ComplicatedDefault) { etc. } plotfoo <- function(x, foocontrol=ComplicatedDefault, ...) { y <- foo(x, control=foocontrol) lines(x,y,...) } The idea is that there are MANY optional parameters to plotfoo(). Any specified value for foocontrol should be passed to foo(), and the other options should be passed to lines() via &quo...

Out of curiosity, I''ve seen the following fail: module Admin describe MyController ... end end But this works fine: describe Admin::MyController .. end Why? Scott

...in.com/m6b47bae9 It works great when I run the specs individually, but when I use rake, specs begin to fail and i think it''s because the value of kontroller() is set to whatever it returns the first time it gets called. Here''s the rake output from running the specs shown above: FooController .FooController . Finished in 0.041793 seconds 2 examples, 0 failures I would expect it to print FooController and then BarController ... interestingly, if I insert ''puts kontroller.to_s'' *outside* of the describe block, then it does output the names of both controllers as exp...

In my rspec_on_rails controlle rspec, I have this: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../spec_helper'' describe FooController, "with a foo" do it "should be false" do get ''index'' assigns[:foo].should be_false end end In my controller I have this: class FooController < ApplicationController def index @foo = FALSE end end But the result of running the spec i...

Hi, In my test case below, it seems that ''initialize'' is called everytime ''hello'' is called. Is this by design, a bug, or my pilot error? class FooController < ApplicationController def initialize print "\n initialize \n" end def hello print "\n hello \n" end end I thought initialize will be called exactly once when the controller is constructed and not when an act...

Hello all. Is there a way to stop users from being able to access a controllers methods without affecting the ability of other controllers to use them? i.e FooController def secret #Stuff end end BarController def index redirect_to :controller => ''foo'', action => ''secret'', :id => ''007'' end end But directly accessing the URL server.com/foo/secret/007 would return a "Not found&q...

I track svn/trunk of Rails using svn:externals Some change to Rails committed in the last 1-2 days broke my subclass of ApplicationController The example, below, works with Rails 1.0, but in today''s svn, it dies with the following error: "superclass mismatch for class FooController" class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base end class FooController < ApplicationController end The reason I''m emailing the list instead of filing a bug report is to see if anyone knows if this change was intentional. I hope not, because I really do need to hav...

Hi guys, I would expect an ActionController-derived class to reload _completely_ in development mode. class FooController < ApplicationController include FancyStuffSupport def index # bla end # more actions here end However, the ''FancyStuffSupport'' is not reloaded, only the ''FooController'' itself. Can this behaviour be changed? I feel back in Java when I have...

Hello everyone: Right now I am writing spec on modules, which are provided by my colleagues. Some of the modules actually contain action methods. I tried very hard to spec those action methods in modules. But it seems that the rspec does not allow module spec to ''get'' action like controller does. After I saw the documentation, I then used :behaviour_type=>:controller.

Hi! Is it possible to render the action within the after_filter method, or is the rendering performed before? I have something like this: class FooController after_filter :send def a @content=... end def b @content=.. end protected def send send_data(@content,...) end end However, when calling the action a or b, the @content doesn''t get sent, but instead rails shows an error message abour missing template. --...

Hi all, I''m trying to output some info to see what''s happening in a controller during functional tests. Problem: ''print'' only works in the test code, but not in the production code that''s being called by the tests. Example: In FooControllerTest: def test_list print "1: starting" <<----- WORKS FINE get :list end In FooController def list print "2: inside" <<----- DOESN''T WORK logger.error "2: inside too" <<---...

I''m not sure but I think this is due to the ''modules'' support in the latest beta gems. In some controllers I include small utility classes that only make sense for that controller. Something like this: class SantasLittleHelper < Foo end class FooController < ApplicationController end Where Foo is defined in RAILS_ROOT/lib/foo.rb What I am seeing now with this new beta is this: #<NameError: uninitialized constant Controllers::SantasLittleHelper> The ''Controllers::'' part makes me think this has something to do with...

Hi, im building a little cms and i want to separate the admin zone controllers in a subfolder(controllers/admin) if possible to all be managed by one login module, i just have managed simple 3 or 4 controller apps so any help you can give me will be very apreciated. ;) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Can you set a global before_filter action in application.rb? So, for example, you could control authentication for all of the controllers in an app.? Obviously, you would need a way to reference actions by controller within this "global before-filter". Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi All! This is not a problem in general but i''ve just missed the point. If my application has a global state, which i have to use both throughout ActionController and ActiveView, then, where to place that state? E.g. if I do this: class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base protected def authenticated? !user.nil? end end then I can''t use that from any

Hello, Rather new to RoR, so I''m not sure about the terminology and such :-/ . My question is: how could I know the model which is associated to a controller? For example: - controller class is TestController, which is a subclass of ApplicationController - associated model class is Test How could I write some code in a method of ApplicationController to dermine the current

...lt;%= i %>_name"/><br/> 9: <%= text_field ''bar[]'', ''name'' %></p> 10: <% end %> 11: 12: <!--[eoform:foo]--> Hmmm... so I guess I need a bar array that is initialized with Bar objects? So I add this to the new method in the FooController: @bars = [] 5.times do |i| @bars.push Bar.new end But then I get this error: undefined method `id_before_type_cast'' for #<Array:0x3925ee8> Extracted source (around line #9): 6: 7: <% 5.times do |i| %> 8: <p><label for="bar_<%= i %>_...

...;) render :update do |page| page << "location.href=''#{url}''" end end Is it possible/advisable to specify either the block passed to render or the output of the helper, something like below? The only way I have been able so far to spec this was to create a FooController with an index action that called the method and then checked the response.body, but that seems like a lot of overhead to test such a simple method. Is there a better or obvious way to do this? Thanks! Matt it "should render javascript to redirect the browser" do self.should_receiv...
