There was some discussion on this list recently about doing .rcss templates in Rails using a custom template handler. I''ve come up with a very simple way to support rcss without a handler. Turns out all it takes is a route and an action that calls render(:file...). I put a full write-up on my blog earlier today:

I am running the webrick server (/script/server) and I would like to be able to view the application from any browser. However, I can only see my application from a browser opened up on the localhost. When I use any other browser it times out. I have already modified the following line in the /script/server file (I''ve tried the numeric ip address also) so that it is the real ip

Hi all -- The simple question is: How do I set different validations for the same Model, when accessed in different Controllers? Here''s the scenario: I have a store/cart app, with a customer-facing shopping cart, and a typical Admin side. The Admin side also has an Order Entry component, where our staff can enter orders received by fax, telephone, etc. Both the customer-facing cart

would it be possible to get another beta gem posted for switchtower? core rails has been getting nice regular updates to the beta gems, but switchtower is still back at 1962.

Anyone think it''d be useful to make a WriteBoard type application that supported ruby, html, etc. and allowed programmers to collaborate on writing scripts or just code in general and track each others changes? Just a thought. - Jim

Could someone kindly send me a copy of the TextMate macros that pertain to Ruby and Rails? I am assuming they are stored in or can be exported to some kind of plain text file... Sadly I am not yet able to make the leap from Linux (and Windows) to a Mac and I am using Slickedit, which has *zero* built in support for Ruby/Rails. I can add macros and code templates so I thought it might be

Hello all, This is an interesting problem I have been working on. What I have is a little multiuser project request tracking application. What happens is that I log in and create projects and assign people to the projects. Each project has steps associated with it, and the steps need to be done in a certain order. Now, I have to request that the assigned person perform each of the steps, and

Hi, I''d like to use migrations to build my initial database. Is there a gem or plugin that will generate the migration code for initial db if I point it at a live database or sql file? If yes, then can you automatically generate the incremental migrations as well? Thanks, Jason

....name field holding the name of a timezone, while almost all timezones are set using forms... I also had a look at the use of the TZInfo library, but it does seem likely that rails will one day support daylight savings times ?...and in that case it is wise to stick with rails...: http://lunchroom.lunchboxsoftware.com/pages/tzinfo_rails Wybo

Hi all, I have a problem with an observer. I have a simple observer... class ActivityObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer observe Customer def after_create(model) bind_params(model) @al.action = "create" @al.save logger "#{model.id} : created" end private def bind_params(model) @al = ActivityLog.new @al.user_id = User.current.id

We are building a web-based application with Ruby on Rails and MySQL backend. The client now wants us to add various workflow features that will eventually expand into SOAP web services. These workflow features include tasks such as automatically sending reminders for due tasks, or if a particular set of information hasn''t been logged by a certain time to automatically send an email

Hi, is anyone aware of a planned or available rules engine which works with Ruby? Something like Drools & Java (forward chaining). Thanks for all your help -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

...ML output > We are considering similar for Rote (but probably for plain XML mainly), as well as a similar CSS thing[1]. Maybe it could be useful in webgen...?

Is there any project or solution for an easy integration of a WFE / WfMS into rails? I''m quite new to this topic, but I probably need a small subset of workflow patterns (or whatever the correct term is) only. Any pointers are welcome. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''ve been reading about ActiveRecord::Callbacks and they''re really cool. But I have a complex need I''m not sure they answer. Let''s say we have a User model. User has a #status attribute, which can be either "active", "closed" or "blocked". I want to set a callback to perform an action if an "active" User has been

I created a project, made a migration, generated scaffolding...start up webrick and I get nothing. To simplify things, I just started another project and generated a controller, still getting nothing. The index page loads fine, but nothing beyond that. If I go to anything that should give me a 404, the page is just blank. The Webrick console just says a 500 (nothing explaining why), and

How many of you are using Rails: 1. As the primary development tool at your Day Job 2. As a small part of your Day Job 3. Not using Rails in your Day Job, but are using Ruby 4. For OS/outside work/hobby -- sam http://www.magpiebrain.com/

...that I''ve been working off of, in particular this one internet archived version of Scott Barron''s very useful article on the subject that is no longer available at the original URL that is linked to from the TZInfo page: http://web.archive.org/web/20060425190845/http://lunchroom.lunchboxsoftware.com/pages/tzinfo_rails I''m not looking to pull of anything fancy here, but I''ve ended up a bit of a stumper in which utc_to_local appears to be adjusting the UTC- stored time twice. This is what I''ve done so far: 1. Set ENV[''TZ''] = ''UTC'...
