The way file_column deals with an uploaded file -- by storing it to the filesystem in a path that employs the model name and id --

I''m developing on Windows and deploying to FreeBSD+lighttpd using Switchtower and I''ve got things generally working. My problem now is that file_column data gets zapped every time I deploy, because Switchtower creates a whole new myapp/public directory with each rev. I looked through the file_column docs and found the :root_path option, which I use in my models as follows:

Where should I look for information on how to use Rails and Ruby to accept the upload of a file and then to save that file to the file system of my server? I''m reading the "Uploading a file" section of Agile Web Dev with Rails, but it''s geared toward saving the file in the database. Any advice? Thanks, Jeff -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Should / will a drag and drop work on a form element (select menu, text box, etc), and more specifically is it simply a matter of defining a new draggable and setting it to the id of the element, or do I need more voodoo in my mojo :) to accomplish it ? TIA Stuart

Hey I''m writing a simple admin interface thats reading user data (skills) from a comma separated file. To clear the database before inserting new skills, I use Skill.delete_all Then I insert the new values I read from a file. Everything goes well up to the point where I see that auto-generated ID''s are not starting from 1. They start off at 840 (responding to the number of

I am building a small app that reuires some clever text pattern matching... In my controller, I''ll have a string that I will want to parse out to a datetime and a message, a la Google Calendar Quick Add. Examples: 10/30/2006 7pm message 10-30-96 7:00 pm message 10/30/2006 19:00pm message ... You see what I''m getting at. For a v1.0 release, I CAN publish some standards for

Ahoy, I checked the API and did some forum searches but didn''t find anything good on table sorting. Is there a "railish" way to do this? My current method really is lacking (i''m on like rails day 2) <th><%= link_to ''Name'', :action => ''list'', :order => ''name'' %></th>

Hi! I''m developing a different kind of Rails app. It''s an email client *built on RoR *which users can download and use. It''ll look and feel like a standard webapp, except that the server will be run locally (maybe webbrick).. Basically, the idea is that: * Web based apps are easier to upgrade, use etc. * But people need to have their email and other stuff on

For a really long time, I''ve been using DBDesigner from FabForce.net. For those of your who''ve never used it, its a freeware visual entity-relationship diagram tool, which allows you to make database designs visually instead of in SQL DDL. You can then use it to generate the SQL to make your databse design into reality, or even run a "synchronize" to make any

Hi, I am new to Rails, I followed the cookbook tutorial, it worked fine, but when I started another tutorial called todo : when I type : http://127.0.0.1:3000/todo/new I get this error : Routing Error Recognition failed for "/todo/new" please help me. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/newbie-question-t1359958.html#a3643454 Sent from the RubyOnRails Users forum

I''m running Windows XP Pro on a not-so-new machine, Pentium 4 2.4GHz with 512 RAM. I''ve got Apache 2 installed and I''m using FastCGI to run Typo in development mode while I design a theme for it. But it''s slow, very slow. Inconsistently slow. If I reload a page, sometimes it happens pretty quickly. Sometimes it takes more than a minute. Sometimes it

Greetings all, To all the good souls that happen to know NTLM and Rails.... Short version: -------------- - I''m looking for server code to extract credentials through NTLM dialog with the client (IE) - I found nothing usable/useful (as they both implement the client side code) in - rubyntlm on rubyforge - lib ntlm-ruby by Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrau LONG version:

Last week I had the pleasure of attending the Raleigh area Ruby users Meetup. It was very interesting and very informative. I did feel a bit out of place when we noticed that of the 11-12 people there, I was the only one with a PC laptop. The rest were shiny macs. Ah well, I need to replace this thing soon, and now that BootCamp is out, I really have no more excuses. This way I can test

I am trying to create the perfect development environment for rails and i dont know exactly which way to go. Do i create a windows environment or a *nix environment. If i go *nix, what distro is best suited for rails. I would be using mysql, so that would come in to play. If i go *nix, i would use apache. Any ideas for the right environment would be greatly appreciated. I guess the major choice is

I have a user model subclassed into Employees and Managers using STI. I am using FileColumn to manage images, in this case logos. If an Employee doesn''t have a logo of its own, I want my app to use the Manager''s logo in views. I did the following in models/users.rb: ------- class User < ActiveRecord::Base file_column :logo end class Employee < User belongs_to

I have an ActionMailer template that properly generates HTML email. It contains a partial. The mail action was called via the following in my controller: def cmasend @cmaform = Cmaform.find(params[:id]) Mailer.deliver_cma(@cmaform) flash[:notice] = ''CMA Sent.'' redirect_to :action => ''list'' end Then, in order to allow a

I''m using file_column 0.3.1 and I recently installed RMagick on my machines, so I''m adding the :versions resizing functionality to my models. I quickly noticed that resized versions are only being created for newly uploaded images, and that no magicked versions get created for existing images. I thought file_column would be smart enough to generate :versions as needed. Has
