I''d really like to see just 2 more functional changes to the JSON serialization/encoding before we get to Rails 2.0. First, and I think this is really crucial because without it all the efforts to output JSON from ActiveRecord objects would have been half in vain, is to allow us to do this in controllers: @authors = Author.find(:all) render :json => @authors.to_json(:only =>

Please check out this ticket (which would explain almost everything): http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/8762 So basically, Rails to_json methods produces invalid JSON out of the box as it doesn''t quote all hash keys. This is valid JSON: { "id": 6589, "code": "SIN", "name": "Singapore" } This is not (Rails'' JSON encoders

Sorry for attaching patches in emails to the mailing list, but I''m still unable to login to Devjavu for Backgroundrb (I''m able to login just fine for Merb''s Devjavu and submitted a ticket successfully). Anyway, I encountered a bug when trying to #ask_status of a worker before it''s run (or rather, before its result_hash has been set to something). Not sure why

I''m using render_to_string in an after_filter, which renders a partial that is sent to a web service. Here''s the code: class MyController < ApplicationController after_filter :post_to_webservice def show # show logic end def post_to_webservice stuff = render_to_string :partial => ''stuff'' webservice_post(stuff) end I get a DoubleRenderError in the

Just a quick pointer to some ActiveSupport patches hoping for reviews: Puts Array#to_query and Object#to_query in the right places in ActiveSupport - http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10395 Preserve user-specified content type for XML and JSON rendering (currently it''s overridden and set to Mime::XML/Mimi::JSON - http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10388 Oh and a tiny patch for

Hi devs, I was trying to open a new ticket with a minor doc patch at the BackgroundDrb Trac (http://backgroundrb.devjavu.com/) and it seems like only admins have permission to do so. Is this intended? I read in the readme that patches should be mailed to this list, but I much prefer to use Trac since there''s already one set up. Any reason Trac is not open to registered Devjavu users?

Hello, I''ve been trying (unsuccessfully) to hack my mongrel_cluster to re-ststart in an alternating manner. Specifically, this soluiton: http://blog.carlmercier.com/2007/09/07/a-better-approach-to-restarting-a-mongrel-cluster/#content Which means I an call to mongrel_rails cluster::restart to do this: mongrel_rails start 8001 mongrel_rails stop 8001 mongrel_rails start 8002

Hey All, I just wanted to get other peoples take on problems when running merb in production? Just as Rails used to do, the mongrels tend to get heavy/unresponsive over time so need a good kicking by a watcher daemon like god or monit. However, I have had serious problems getting God to restart the process, as the "merb -k <port>" command doesnt appear to work reliably

Hello Rails people, I submitted a patch recently to get rid of an annoying exception raised when an AR object is created - http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10556 , had some people review it, got some pluses... What am I supposed to do now? Can anybody advise or just review the patch and take care of the issue? Thanks! -- Best regards, Yuri Leikind

The original: http://pastie.textmate.org/private/lqvrlyyvkv2kbugoxtiz6w Send your submissions to me by email or on #merb. I''ll blog it, and pick a winner. The winner does not mean it makes it into Merb, just means I personally like it best. But it might make it into Merb. # Scenario: # You have a simple application that lists all the monkeys at the zoo. # Every monkey has a

I didn''t quite see a direct answer to Matt''s question regarding running merb from SVN: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/merb-devel/2007-July/000132.html In a merb application, is there something comparable to having rails in the vendor/ folder of a rails app? Thanks, Duane Johnson (canadaduane)

In this thread: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/134298 the poster had a patch to create a stack trace that had "textmate" links it it. He opened a bug report: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10401 I can''t find that since dev.rubyonrails.org appears dead. I don''t know if / how the old tickets got moved over to lighthouse. I searched in the new repository but could

Not sure if anyone else has had this problem. I was running on merb edge fine a few days ago. Last night I went to merb 0.4.0 via gem install and now any call to session[:foo] causes an error >> undefined method ''[]'' for nil:NilClass I have uninstalled and reinstalled merb with no luck. dependencies.rb use_orm :activerecord merb.yml :session_store: active_record Gems

Hey Chaps, Forgive me for not fully understanding the inner workings of merb, but I would like to read in a YAML configuration file once when the application is booted rather than reading it every time it is used (as presumably the overhead in doing that is significant?) - I had presumed this is how both Merb and rails do it for there database.yml config files (hence its a requirement

Just a quick question to those of you using merb and sequel or datamapper. How do you setup your merb app? For example: merb -X off -c 5, then run mod_proxy_balancer or nginx to load balance between the 5 (or whatever #) of merb nodes? merb -X off -d, then simply use something like proxypass merb -c 5, keep the mutex lock and cluster it haproxy, swiftiply, evented mongrel...... What

I had redirects working just the other day... before I upgraded to the latest release. Can somebody please chime in as to why this simple redirect is throwing an error? Controller: ----------------------- def do redirect "http://www.ebay.com" end Error Output: ------------------------- Internal server error 500 uninitialized constant Merb::ControllerMixin::MovedTemporarily in

Stupid question, but is there a way to run merb locally, without installing it as a gem? I don''t mean freezing it into a merb app, but checking out merb and being able to run it without installing the gem first. The reason I ask is that I''m working on some debugging stuff and it''d be helpful to be able to modify the source code, run it, modify, run, and so on. (And yes,

After a half day''s work I''ve created a Merb app to handle file uploads for a Rails app. In my dev environment, I changed the views in the Rails app to point to Merb on port 4000. But now I''m stuck trying to figure out how to deploy my new Merb app on a production server. Looks like originally this was handled with a rewrite rule

Hey All Quick question, what''s the merb equivalent of this: ActionView::Base.new([template_root], assigns, self) in merb? Ive found Merb::Template::Erubis.transform(:file => ''/path/to/file'') But I''ve no idea if thats the correct thing to be calling? It doesn''t ''feel'' right, so im not sure it is? Thanks Tim

Hi! I''m rather new to Merb, but I thought I''d give it a shot. I found that autotest wasn''t running my specs when my models were changing. Maybe this is because of how I have set up Merb, but in the even that it''s not just me, I''ve adapted Autotest''s mappings for Rails and have attached my efforts to this email. Unfortunately, you need to
