similar to: #3775 - testing helpers which use ActionView methods

I would like to see the output of actionview helper methods, to be able to play with it. When I do the following in the console: collection_select("job", "client_id" , @clients, "id", "name") I get: NoMethodError: undefined method `collection_select'' for #<Object:0xb7cf1970> I''d like to get something like: <select

We''ve been having problems writing functional tests for helper methods that rely on ActionView methods. Here''s a specific example. In application_helper.rb I''ve got a method called ''party_link()¨: def party_link(party) link_to party.full_name, { :controller => ''contacts'', :action =>

Gurus (Guri? heh), We got burned today by #2018 ("rake appdoc fails on Windows systems"), and did a bunch of ferreting around (starting at the problems in rdoc,rake,rdoc.bat) and ultimately came back to the conclusion that the cleanest way to fix the problem is just a variation on a suggestion already posted in that ticket. I wrote up a patch against trunk from the suggestion there and

I''ve been trying to add unit testing for collection of models with complex relationships -- and failing miserably. Because of the complexity of the relationships, I''m using a database which validates foreign key constraints (PostgreSQL 8). I''m finding it nearly impossible to generate tests that are independent of each other. The basic problem is the DELETE then

Hello, I am in the middle of my first ROR project and suddently the breakpointer script (./script/breakpointer) does allways return the error listed below.

Hi ActionView::Helpers::FormHelper methods (e.g. #text_field, #check_box...) take object_name as an argument. From this argument they infer a name that is supposed to contains the reference to the relevant object. I can''t see why the FormHelper methods were designed that way. Compared to simply passing them a reference, the current way seems too complicated and an invitation to problems

I have a database field called dates in which I am trying to serialize an array of DateTime objects. When I unserialize them, they are coming back in as Time objects. I know this, because I am getting errors that say "comparison between Time and DateTime failed. Why is this happening? Is there a way to prevent it??

Any plans for using Atom with rails. I saw the "Typo" project is using MoveableType, Blogger, ... but not Atom. It seems Atom is not part of ActionWebService. Has anyone done any work with Atom and Rails ? Thanks for your answers, Gaspard

As I asked in StackOverflow<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15127658/hoe-to-get-tag-id-from-a-record-in-form-for/15129741> I think it would be helpful since we can dynamically create javascript code to control each input tag in form helper, what do you think? Or there has already been a solution? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby

What is the best way to override some of the FormHelper default options?

Hi all, Please forgive me for this newbie question. But I really want to know how how to access ActionView::Helpers::JavaScriptHelper::escape_javascript method in a model. I can access this method in view, but when call it in the model, it ends up with undefined method. It seems to me they are in different scope. So what''s the best way to access view helper methods in model. --

Hi, Is it possible to use the ActionView::Helpers::FormHelper.text_field with an instance variable instead of a model. e.g. In the controller: def meth @value = ''hi there'' end In view: <%= text_field ''value'', nil %> It doesn''t work with what is above (doesn''t like the nil) and produces very strange results replacing nil with

How do you do the equivalent of: module MyLibrary include ActionView::Helpers::AssetTagHelper end ...in Rails 3? I''m trying to upgrade my app from 2.3.9 to 3.0.1 and I have some stuff in /lib that needs to include these helpers from ActionView.

Hey All, I''m attempting to upgrade my app from rails 2.0.2 to 2.3.3.
