Hi, I have several hundred pages of text, all carefully marked up with textile, which I use redcloth to convert to html for display. Now I find I need all these pages to alternatively output plain text - ie. A-Za-z0-9 and simple punctuation only. Any suggestions on the best way to do this? My only thought is to let redcloth do its stuff, and then strip out the html tags - but it feels wrong.

Hi, I''m new to Ruby and Rails and I would be very grateful for some advice. I''ve got the following code. class Foo < ActiveRecord::Base include Versionable # Some methods to handle my versioned objects has_many :versions, :class_name => "FooVersion", :foreign_key => "parent_id" belongs_to :curr, :class_name => "FooVersion",

Camping apps are supposed to be little independent apps, often contained in a single file, which create the database tables and manage them without hassle. These days it''s common to see in a Camping app: module Tepee::Models def self.schema(&block) @@schema = block if block_given? @@schema end end Tepee::Models.schema do create_table :tepee_pages,

hey there, i have a simple model called key_words.rb the purpose of this is to hold system config data. it also holds the parameters that our system uses to judge the condition of the stuff we monitor. anyway, one of the methods is this def self.get_in_wet_list(status) wet_list = find(:first, :conditions => "name = ''wet_list'' ")

Either way, it works. Maybe this is a candidate for Equipment, Jonas? Enjoy. -- Chris Wanstrath http://errtheblog.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

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

I''m digging into rails source code. But I''ve got a problem in undestading actionrecord::base source code which is connection_specification.rb. In the body of establish_connection method, def self.establish_connection(spec = nil) case spec when nil raise AdapterNotSpecified unless defined? RAILS_ENV establish_connection(RAILS_ENV)

Also comment on the per-worker listen usage in the RDoc, not just a hidden comment. --- I just pushed this out earlier, this example was inspired by Chris Wanstrath''s before_fork hook but modified to use SIGTTOU instead of SIGQUIT for all but the last worker to minimize memory explosions during upgrades.

Hi All, I''m stuck yet again. I have an action on a controller that produces a Ziya graph, which I call using the gen_chart() helper. However, I can''t seem to pass more than one parameter through to the action. <%= gen_chart( "overview_graph", url_for( :controller => ''graph'', :action => ''graph'', :graph_id =>

I am completely baffled by this one - My guess is that there is no pure ruby way to do this - but how could I set up a spec to test that one method is an alias of another? Thanks for any help, Scott

Hi, I just put together a little mixin to provide pseudo-RESTful services in camping apps. Basically, it looks for a hidden _verb field in form posts, and sets the @method to the supplied value (e.g. put or delete - which browsers don''t support). This lets you define put and delete methods in your controllers. Groovy. Code: http://pastie.caboo.se/22613 Is there any permanent repo of

Campers -- In a few weeks there will be a bunch of people in Portland, OR, for a conference. A long time ago some campers mentioned that might be a good time for us to get together and hold a mini CampingConf for a few hours. Is anyone interested? Does anyone want to organize it? I''m thinking Wednesday night, May 16. We could possibly get a spot at FreeGeek (not likely since they are
