Is there any way to tell Rails to send the .html file it renders somewhere other than the web server? I need to save a page to the server''s file system instead of sending it to the user''s browser.

I have a model (Query) which I use to, of all things, query the database. This is to enable raw SQL access. I want to ensure that db access using this model is read-only. Short of checking the sql query for ''insert'' and ''drop'' and ''update'', is there a more rails-like way of doing this in my app/models/query.rb itself? Thanks in advance,

This is way offtopic, but I''ve seen this several times recently and it''s annoying me. If you put "HOWTO" in your subject that means that you''re posting a guide on a particular topic. It doesn''t mean that you''re asking a question about "how to" do something. It''s not like it''s a crisis, but it screws up searches

Does anyone have a sense for how painful the 1.0 -> 1.1 upgrade is going to be for existing apps? I''m finishing up my first real RoR application with Rails 1.0. I can live with it staying at that level, but I really want to use the has_many :through attribute to clean up some of my code. I''m not particularly interested in edge Rails, mainly because the documentation for

Hello, Just started to use Capistrano for deployment and everything works beautifully and as advertised. Thanks Jamis for this great piece of software. However, in my case, the deploy task takes quite some time since my SVN repository resides on a different continent than my app/db server and I''ve frozen all the rails code in the vendor dir and checked in. All in all my app sums up to

I''ve been contemplating the utilization of "tags" functionality for categorizing records in my application. For example, a record can have any tag associated with them: volunteer, donor, phone_caller, etc. (Much like delicious) Has anyone already laid out a good architecture for implementing this on the DB, or other medium? I''m sure I can custom build something, but

Greetings, I''m trying to make a simple logging application that just displays the last few rows of information in the log. In order to do this, I am trying to use the ":offset" option for find. However, I am not getting the results I expect. For testing purposes, the query is being run against a table (MySQL) that contains 11 records. According to the RoR documentation,

I am wanting to one run instance of lighttpd, many many instances of mongrel. I also need ssl but only for one of my sites. I understand that Mongrel does not play with SSL so I am forced to use Lighttpd. I think that lighttpd only handles ssl or non-ssl on any given instance. Is there a way for me to accomplish my goal of one lighttpd with multiple mongrels and the occasional ssl connection? --

Is it my imagination or has there been a huge increase in the number of fragmented threads in the last several days? Maybe it''s Gmail doing something crazy, but I see dozens of top-level conversations starting with replies (ex. "Re: [Rails] omfg something broke"). Did people collectively forget what the "reply" button looks like, or is the list software doing

A quick survey... what''s the best gui debugging tool for Rails 1.0 on Linux that you''ve used? SW versions? Personally I''ve tried FreeRIDE 0.95 and RDT 0.7.0 in Eclipse 3.1.2. Both are very slow and the latter got quite a few bugs itself. TIA! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is it possible to make a Rails app respond to a "dinamic" controller? As I understand method_missing can be used inside a controller to respond to nonexisting methods, is it possible to provide a similar behavior at a controller level? I am not sure at whic level would this code be inserted... -- An?bal Rojas http://www.lacaraoscura.com/ anibalrojas@gmail.com

Hi all, I''m trying to add a common menu to all pages in my application. It is just a set of links I want to display. I''m having trouble deciding where to put the code.

Hello Everyone ! Wanted to announce the launch of a new, 100%, Ruby/Rails based shopping system. http://www.rightcart.com (our blog: http://www.rightcartblog.com) It''s basically a shopping widget that allows users to make purchases directly through the widget.... no need to be redirected to a third party shopping cart. You can sell anything you want by upload the products onto the

Can I get some opinions on which free DB to use with rails for a virtual server that will eventually be doing lots of heavy database lifting? Not a lot of heavy duty querying per se. Think multiple simultaneous forums and blog sites and the like. I know each of the different DB possibilities such as MySQL and PostgreSQL has plus points and minus points. I''m particularly interested

...ady foir "Enterprise" It seems to be that a big part of Rails is encouraging people to do things the "Right Way", yet none of the Rails books/articles I have read (AWDwR, Rails Recipes, etc.) even discuss how to do i18n, let alone encourage it.
