Hello - I''m trying to remain RESTful in a new application that I''m building, but I''m not sure how to get the routes that I want. I''m trying to avoid having resource names like "posts" and "comments" cluttering things up. For example, for a resource that I designate: GET example.com -> index GET example.com/1 -> show, id=1 GET

Hi, I am trying to create a simple point system and display the total on my index page. So I have my db basically setup like this: Posts id, body, created_at, user_id Post_points id, post_id, user_id, created_at, value So as you can see I am allowing other users to create points on the post and my db will store who gave the point as well. "value" is the point value which can

I''ll use the example on the Rails blog. map.resources :posts do |posts| posts.resources :comments, :trackbacks end Now comments are at /posts/:post_id/comments. Okay but what if I want to list all the comments for all the posts. It should be at /comments, but that isn''t map that way. Can I map comments twice? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all, I''m having a very odd problem with db:migrate. I''m using Rails 1.2.5 on Windows XP SP2 and Ruby 1.8.6 I have seven migrations. If I run them with an empty database, it runs the first three, then halts. When I look in schema_info, the version is 3.

Hi to all. I''ve a very big problem. I know this can seem very loing, but please, try to read it. I have a simply blog, with posts and their comments. I''ve two tables in my db, posts, with post id, text and comments_count to store the number of comments-children of each post (as recomanded to do in AWDWR); and the table comments, with comment id, post_id for the post

okay. on /posts/show/13 i have show.rhtml, which does render_component(:controller=>''comments'', :action=>''display_comments'', :id=>post.id) on comments/display_comments i iterate through the comments and then, display_comments.rhtml render_component(:controller=>''comments'', :action=>''new'', :id=>@id)

I have a question about the usage of Merb::Controller#url. When I have nested resources, requesting the new action works differently than I expected. I was wondering what the intended usage is. For example: Say I have r.resources :articles do |article| article.resources :article_attachments end irb(main):002:0> show_routes [:articles, "/articles"] [:article_attachments,

Le''s say that I have a table called people and the column middle_name is nullable. If the user enters say blank or empty space then in the database it is recorded as empty space. I would like in all my models all empty spaces to be recorded as null. I guess I can write a plugin which will do so for all the models but I''m sure something like that should already be existing.I

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
