similar to: Un-recognised routes that do exist, using namespaces & subdomain checking

Once again, here''s something I haven''t figured out. Apologies if this is too newb-ish, but, how do I spec my routes using RSpec-Rails? In particular, I''ve got a catch-all route that needs to catch a wide variety of URLs: map.document ''*url'', :controller => ''documents'', :action => ''show'' Is there a way to

I''m trying to add some functionality to the setup method of all my tests. I added a method called setup_with_ts in the test_helper and chained it using alias_method_chain :setup, :ts and that works great for every test that does not define setup in the test. So for my unit tests i tried also defining the same method setup_with_ts in a class ActiveSupport::TestCase def setup_with_ts

I attached a rails helper implementation of the fb_table described here: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Facebook_Styles I included testing and comments. I hope you find it useful. Curiously, it''s really a small extension of FBML. Richard -------------- next part -------------- Index: test/rails_integration_test.rb

Hi Is stubbing a call to super possible? I am testing a protected method called authorized in a Rails controller ... part of the logic flow calls super which calls the method authorized in the application controller. As I am focused on the logic of the method in the controller I am testing I just wish to stub the value returned in the super. Is this at all possible? Cheers Shane

One more question: Is there some way to set the human_name of a column? e.g.: human_name for column address1 shouldn''t be Address1 but "Address, line 1". If not, should I make a hash with my custom names?

Hello, I''m facing this problem while trying to extend the parse_redmine_links helper method in Redmine-1.1.0 (Rails-2.3.5) from my plugin. My idea is to use alias_method_chain so the extended version could call the original version and adjust the result to it''s liking. Anything I''ve tried so far exposes this behavior: the first render of a page uses the extended

Could someone explain this? #config/initializers/ar_attributes.rb module ActiveRecord module AttributeMethods alias_method :ar_read_attribute, :read_attribute def read_attribute(attr_name) p "read_override" ar_read_attribute(attr_name) end alias_method :ar_write_attribute, :write_attribute def write_attribute(attr_name, value)

is there a way to always eagerly load an associated object so that you don''t have to put :include into every finder? class Product <ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :user #always load user when product is loaded end Product.find(1).user.login #1 query since user was loaded with the product, same as if i used :include but I don''t want to have to specify it everywhere.

(This message was originally written on StackOverflow -- the formatting is much prettier there -- http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1283046/problem-with-setter-override-on-activerecord) This is not exactly a question, it''s rather a report on how I solved an issue with write_attribute when the attribute is an object, on Rails'' Active Record. I hope this can be useful to others

Hello list, I am trying to override the post_form method of Net::HTTP so that it does something before actually doing the post. I tried the following in environments/development.rb module Net class HTTP alias_method_chain :post_form, :intercept def post_form_with_intercept(url, params) # Do something before post logger.info(''About to post at

Running Rails 2.0.2, I get this error: ./script/../config/../vendor/plugins/facebooker/lib/facebooker/rails/facebook_url_rewriting.rb:29: undefined method `alias_method_chain'' for ActionController::UrlRewriter:Class (NoMethodError) from /usr/local/rubygems/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require'' from

20 / 20 hind sight, I would probably do things different today but I have most of my active record classes under different parent classes. For example: module Foo class Bar < ActiveRecord::Base ... end end The to_xml for this produces <foo/bar> .... </foo/bar> The / in a tag name is not allowed. Questions: 1) Is this a bug? 2) If so, suggestion of what to convert it to?

There are few issues with the current ActiveModel::Errors class. Firstly, when an error is added to ActiveModel::Errors class via #add method (https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/activemodel/lib/active_model/errors.rb#L294) its translation is added. It should not be translated when being added, but only when being read. The second issue is a bit bigger. We''d like to create

In some of my unit tests, I find the need to set today to a different value than the actual today. For example, to test the model method "balance_of_today", which takes no argument, I want to have Date.today be a specific date for the purpose of testing. In other words, I want to do something like this: mock_today(Date.new(2008, 2, 1)) do ... test code... end My implementation for

Hi, how is it possible that I can use the restful routes helpers (e.g. new_user_path) in controller specs? I browsed the source code but I couldn''t find the magic. I''m just curious and would appreciate any hint... thanks Andi

Hi There, As I have learned the hard way, let me discuss my question, idea or feature here before doing actual work on it... distance_of_time_in_words_to_now() seems to be unable to tell if this distance is in the future or in the past. I''d really like to see ''in 5 days'' or ''5 days ago'' depending on, well, if it was 5 days ago or will be in 5

I have an odd error. I have the following module: module ActionController module SslSupport def self.included(base) raise "#{base} does not define url_for" unless base.method_defined?(:url_for) unless base.respond_to?(:url_for_without_ssl_supprt) base.send :include, InstanceMethods base.send :alias_method_chain, :url_for, :ssl_support end

Acts_as_paranoid is giving me a headache when performing migrations. For some reason when I perform a migration I get a "stack level too deep" error. If I comment out the database inserts that are performed (countries, regions, and a base admin) it works well. Even after minimizing the data that is inserted on the migration to one record it still throws the same error. When running
