Has anyone successfully ran the simply_restful tests? Here is how I''m running the tests and the first error. I''m I missing something here? >rails test >cd test >rake rails:freeze:edge >./script/plugin install simply_restful >ruby vendor/plugins/simply_restful/test/routing_test.rb Loaded suite vendor/plugi...

...ctual bulk import. Here I was thinking of either: /people/;bulk_import (using a POST method) or /people/bulk_import (using a POST method). I''m getting a bit confused on how to think about this ''new'' REST/CRUD paradigm, especially in terms of URLs, and then using the simply_restful plugin to manage the named routes. Can somebody clear this up for me before my head explodes. Thanks Joerg -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is there information on how I can define custom paths/actions other than these: /users/new GET new /users/id;edit GET edit so for example I can have my own: /users/log_in GET log_in /users/id;process_log_in GET process_log_in So far I cannot find any documentations on these at all. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to the best way to provide access to the same data source for the (possible) creation of multiple web sites. I figure my options are: - Direct database access over tcp - ActionWebService - Wait for ActionResource I''ve done up some work with ActionWebService already, but I don''t think it''s going to work because it

...em with the routes: new_contact_url translates to: /employers/1/contacts/new ... so that works. But, contact_url(@contact) gives me /employers/3/contacts .... which is clearly wrong. It should give me something like /employers/1/contacts/3 Is this a bug? Or am I missing something? Routes and simply_restful work fine for me everywhere else.

I mentioned this in another thread, but I''ve got a formal request now. After reading tons of stuff about REST, I don''t really get it. I need to see an example. I''d like someone to write up an example blog app with these requirements - RESTful using the simply_restful plugin (or edge rails) - allows posting of comments to articles - has categories for posts No need for authentication. I have two questions that would be answered by that example app. The first is just how to use simply_restful in the first place. I also wonder how you''re supposed t...

...this? I saw DHH''s slides where he said that you could have your app automatically respond with HTML, XML, atom, whatever. So far I''ve found tons of discussion on REST and CRUD in Rails, but I haven''t seen anything that actually shows me what it all is. There''s simply_restful, which apparently makes things easier...I don''t know what though. I''ve done a lot of reading, so I know what REST is, I just don''t know how people use it in Rails. If anyone has some examples and explanations, I''d really appreciate it. Pat

Using the brand-spanking new map.resources for REST goodness, is there a way to pass in additional parameters, or do I have to go back to standard routes. For example, is there a way to use the map.resources to response to urls like: /blog/2005/02/03/ => :controller => :blog, :action => :show, :year => 2005, :month => ''02'', :day => ''03''

.../prefix from post end @post.comments.create(:body => ''....'') @comment.post.title Feel free to poke around and let us know what you think. Keep in mind, ActiveResource isn''t a general XML web service framework. It''s merely the client version of simply_restful. Think of it as an added bonus for following the restful conventions. -- Rick Olson http://weblog.techno-weenie.net http://mephistoblog.com _______________________________________________ Rails-core mailing list Rails-core@lists.rubyonrails.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/ra...

Hi, Is it SimplyRestful compatible with Rails 1.1.4 or Would I need edge Rails? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Does anyone have any links to a comprehensive guide on the new routing in Edge Rails? I''m keen to integrate it into a new app and have read the Riding Rails post by Rick but would like to read a more comprehensive guide to its usage. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, A store front a customer wants to GET /product/5/show. But for the application this is really GET /cart_item/new/5 or even better /cart_item/new?cart_item[product_id]=5 When the customer clicks add_to_cart they POST /product/5/show so that the url doesn''t confuse the user when any validation errors occur. But for the applicaiton this should be POST
