Campers -- In a few weeks there will be a bunch of people in Portland, OR, for a conference. A long time ago some campers mentioned that might be a good time for us to get together and hold a mini CampingConf for a few hours. Is anyone interested? Does anyone want to organize it? I''m thinking Wednesday night, May 16. We could possibly get a spot at FreeGeek (not likely since they are

Hello, I am in a bit of a bind. I need to reliably parse mediawiki markup to html, and the only parser that I can find (mediacloth) has a lot to be desired, so I would like to extend something that works and parse mediawiki markup. My question to this list is should I start working on RedCloth or SuperRedCloth or is there a difference as far as extending them? Also does anyone know of a write up

I can''t get fixtures to load correctly in a Mosquito test. The first fixture loads in the unit test, but the rest don''t load at all. File structure: tracker/ tracker.rb test/ test_tracker.rb fixtures/ tracker_measurements.yml tracker_projects.yml Relevant test code: require ''rubygems''

Is anyone using formats with the url generator in trunk? I can''t figure it out and it seems to be unimplemented in the router code. I want to do something like url(:articles, :format => "xml") # => /articles.xml or url(:formatted_articles, :format => "xml") -- Geoffrey Grosenbach ........................

I like the style of the Merb plugin manager....installing gems straight from RubyForge. However, the current implementation in trunk wants to find an install script and a Rakefile.merb. Many gems would still be useful without this and could be easily packaged with a Merb app for deployment. Right now it wil "rescue nil" if no uninstall script is found, but the others are required. Is

Fellows of the cloth -- I''m writing code that subclasses RedCloth and emits styled text that is not HTML. For example, I''m going to be emitting RTF and other formats from Textile or Markdown. I''ve got it working quite well with plainclothed RedCloth, but I can''t seem to override any of the methods in SuperRedCloth. Here''s a sample:

The second release of TentSteak is out and available as a gem on rubyforge ("gem install tent_steak"). This version introduces a handful of new form helpers, a couple method renames, editable HTML tables, and some application bootstrappers for kickstarting Camping and initializing ActiveRecord. It''s still in active development, and I''d very much appreciate

...re anything like that out there for Ruby on Rails? How hard would it be to develop a 3d graphing library as i have some spare time coming up but am new the open source community and RoR and don''t know where to start on something like this? Would be possible to get someone like Geoffrey Grosenbachs Gruff Graphs and extend it with the capabilities i need? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Mosquito, the TDD framework for Camping has been updated (0.1.3). We''ve tried to keep it backwards compatible, so your apps should continue to work.

Hello, How does Rails deal with the pluralization of community. I have "community" as my model name. Will Rails automatically look for a table name "communities" or do I have to name the table "communitys"? Thanks. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I''m just getting started with GD2 and have successfully made a few dynamic PNGs. I need to make some fairly detailed line graphs on the fly and I know that GD2 is capable of what I want but I strongly suspect I''m reinventing the wheel badly. Are there gems or other projects that help creating complex charts? I''ve used GDChart in the distant past but I

Hello List, If I have a module and the address looks like / admin/:controller/:action and I want to create a link to /:controller/:action, how do I have to specify that in a ''link_to'' or in a ''redirect :controller =>'' statement. It doesn''t strip the /admin part from it, which makes sense, but I need to go to a controller in the root. TIA,

Hi, I want to write a plugin that uses JavaScript and I am wondering how to put the static content, i.e. the JavaScript, in place? I read the documentation I found ( http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/Plugins and links) and looked at the listed plugins. One thing I found was that subversion seems to be a prerequisite for providing or even installing plugins. Is that right? The other thing

Hi everyone. I can''t get the above(subject line) combination to work. If I use a standard sqlite3 file db for the test db, and spec_server all the specs on my models pass. If I use an in-memory db for the test db, script/spec w/o spec_server, they all pass. But if I use in-memory and spec_server I get the following error: 1) ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in ''User should be

Hi, Is there an easy way of converting a gem to a plugin, or at least something you can dump into $RAILS_ROOT/vendor? I''m uncomfortable having stuff like capistrano, the shipping gem, builder, autotest being installed globally as a gem instead of being installed for each application. What do you think? Joe

I''m a 50 year old mainframe programmer from the Netherlands that has just started his RoR journey with a GREAT idea for a project to enter for Railsday2006. To quote Geoffrey Grosenbach in an email when I approached him to help me realize the project; ?That''s an interesting idea.? & ?It could be a great project for RailsDay?

I''ve noticed that when using Geoffrey Grosenbach''s Sparkline Graphs Gem, the Rails built-in generator help stops working i.e. I type script/generate and it just returns without outputting anything. Can anyone reproduce this or is it just me? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
