Make your models feel like they are in high school again. This plugin retrieves the most frequently occurring values for each column. It adds methods of the form most_popular_[pluralized_column_name]. Check out <http://shanesbrain.net/articles/2006/08/04/acts-as-most-popular-rails-plugin> for sample usage. The plugin is mostly just a group_by in disguise. It is probably overkill if you just need to find the most popular items for one column, and probably doesn''t warrant a plugin. But if you are a newbie, then...

Hi Facebookers, Is there a helper or suggested approach for presenting validation errors on an fbml form? Something to translate rails error markup to fbml:error markup? thanks Joel

Hey everyone. I have a quick question. Checking out facebooker as a plugin is currently really slow due to the example rails application. Would anyone object if I moved that out of the main plugin directory? Mike -- Mike Mangino http://www.elevatedrails.com

With the new fb_sig_request_method provided by Facebook, I''ve patched shanev''s pseudo-resource routes to generate restful routes, minus some exceptions. The announcement: http://www.facebook.com/developers/message.php#msg_126 Patch is submitted here: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=16105&group_id=4187&atid=16132 Blog entry about it:

Hi I just made some changes / additions for myself in facebooker and posted the patches on rubyforge, e.g.: https://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php? func=detail&aid=18639&group_id=4187&atid=16130 (adds support for fb:dialog FBML tag) Is this the right way to do it? --simon -- http://simonwoodside.com

...imilar setup to database.yml with sections for each environment. You can also configure your ssh reverse tunnels. If you are upgrading, make sure to remove your facebooker specific setup in your environment files and consolidate them into facebooker.yml.

...mess with current rendering. The work-around is to just call render_to_string before rendering ''show'', but I want to keep my controller code DRY by putting the webservice logic in an after_filter. So is this a bug or a feature?

Here''s the fix for Facebook apps that specify a controller in their callback URLs. First, set this variable in your environment scripts: ENV[''FACEBOOKER_CALLBACK_PATH''] = ''/controller'' # where controller is the name of your Facebook controller And then patch vendor/plugins/facebooker/lib/facebooker/rails/facebook_url_rewriting.rb as shown in the

Hi, I started with rfacebook but given the recent events figure its best to move over to facebooker. I have: 1.) Installed the facebooker plugin 2.) setup my facebook app (fbml/canvas) 3.) created a method on controller & view to handle initial request 4.) added "ensure_application_is_installed_by_facebook_user" to top off application.rb I am able to get to my landing page

Hey everybody. I''ve been using Facebooker on several projects over the last few months and feel like it is really starting to mature. I''d like to push towards a 1.0 release within the next month. I''d really like everybody''s input on what still needs to be done, as well as some help in wrapping things up. I''ve created a list of things that still

Is ActionController''s redirect_to method broken by Facebooker? When I try to invoke it and execute through apps.facebook.com, I get a blank page returned, response code 200, no redirect. When I try to connect directly to the server (not through apps.fb), I get the infinite recursion error described minutes ago. Are any of you able to use redirect_to successfully, and if so, any ideas

I don''t know if anyone is using this but I just fixed a bunch of bugs, some big ones, and moved this project to RubyForge SVN servers. So you can get it here now: script/plugin install http://facebooker-mq.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/facebooker-mq/ This is working great for me on a couple of projects. Here is the README Updated: 3/14/2008 Purpose: The purpose of FacebookerMQ is to

Hi, for those with experience of Gruff module: suppose I want to send image from server straight to the browser (as example on gruff web site): send_data(g.to_blob, :disposition => ''inline'', :type => ''image/png'', :filename => "gruff.png") the server seems sending this binary data ok, but I am having

...ow_redirect! in integration tests. Again, extracts the URL from a response containing fb:redirect and makes a call to facebook_post to that URL. Give these a roll and let me know if there are any issues. Thanks a lot to Ryan Kinderman for this patch and the descriptions above.

Rails Stats is a simplified graphical version of the Rake ''stats'' task. It generates a graph showing your lines of code versus lines of test code, and two other graphs showing the composition of your project and tests. The plugin requires Gruff Graphs. <http://shanesbrain.net/articles/2006/07/18/rails-stats-plugin-or-show-me-those-pretty-graphs> If not useful, I hope someone finds it pretty :) Shane Vitarana

Well, I''m trying to generate graphs using gruff, but I''m having problemns. I use, require_gem ''gruff'' then when I run g = Gruff::Line.new(475) I get uninitialized constant Gruff ///// c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.3.1/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:100:in `const_missing''

...le POST /profiles/:id/show create_profile POST /profiles/create edit_profile POST /profiles/:id/edit update_profile POST /profiles/:id/update destroy_profile POST /profiles/:id/destroy This is still very basic.

...nfo. This breaks user.populate because the ''degree'' field doesn''t exist in the education history model. On a side note, if a method calls a dangerous method (ending with !), shouldn''t it be classified as dangerous too? Shane -- http://myfitbuddy.com | http://shanesbrain.net | http://crimsonjet.com
