similar to: validates_inclusion_of with range on ruby 1.9

Hi, I''m trying to run the "validates_inclusion_of" method in a before_save hook, because the range is dependant on the related data. But I can''t figure out how to call it. When calling it normally, it says it can''t find it. I''ve tried several combinations like "ActiveRecord::Validations.validates_inclusion_of", but I can''t seem to

It appears that if your trying to use validates_inclusion_of for a string value allow_nil wont work. For example, if I have an attribute :year which is stored as a varchar then: validates_inclusion_of :year, :in => "1980"..Time.now.year.to_s, allow_nil=>true will successfully validate the range but will not allow an empty input field to be submitted. However, if :year is

In Rails 3, is it possible to have a plugin inside an engine? Adding the lib dir of the plugin to autoload_paths doesn''t seem to work. I can manage to load it by adding that path to $: and requiring the init.rb file, but I''m not sure that''s the correct approach.

All, I have a field that I''m validating with validates_numericality_of on as well as validates_inclusion_of, like so: validates_numericality_of :number_of_owners, :only_integer => true, :message => ''must be a whole number'' validates_inclusion_of :number_of_owners, :in => 1..3,

Hello, I am just starting off with Rails, so I apologize in advance if there is a terribly obvious answer to my problem. I''ve done some searching and found similar problems to my own, but nothing which yielded a solution. I have a handful of models that I am unit testing. The tests for each unit run successfully, but when I do a rake test, many of the tests fail. The assertions that

In Rails 3 routing, it seems we''re using the match() method to hook up arbitrary url patterns to rack endpoints (which I think is a great new routing feature). I''d like to suggest that we name it "connect", instead of "match": 1. It maintains continuity with previous versions of rails 2. It''s more descriptive of the intention of a route: to connect

I seem to be missing something trying to use ''validates_inclusion_of'' to validate a foreign key and was hoping some one could piont out my mistake? The problem seems to be that Order.find_all.collect is not returning an array that contains the order_id, if I replace it with a hardcoded array everything works as expected. The model: class OrderItem < ActiveRecord::Base

Hello all. I have a problem using validates_inclusion_of. I need to switch off some validations during a migration period, is there a way? I tried to use if, with a static method of one of my models, but the behaviour is something strange It seems that the static method should be in a string to be evaluated. And the order of the elements in the if is counting... :if => (:some_field

Hello, I tried to post this as a bug on the trac site, but whenever I hit submit, I got the error message: --- Precondition Failed The precondition on the request for the URL /newticket evaluated to false. --- Anyway... Let''s say I have the following model classes: --- class Project < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :tasks end class Task < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to

Hello, I have a model Model: SPECIAL_FEATURES = %w(none top) class Model validates_inclusion_of :special_feature, :in => Model::SPECIAL_FEATURES, :on => :create, :message => "special_feature %s is not defined" belongs_to :team def special_feature attributes = attributes_before_type_cast if attributes["special_feature"]

Hello, I''m currently stunk on this issue for few days and I do not know how to get it fixed. The system always raises this error message : order is closed and here is my order.rb: class Order < ActiveRecord::Base include ActiveMerchant::Billing before_validation :set_status attr_protected :id, :customer_ip, :status, :error_message, :updated_at, :created_at attr_accessor

Q: validates_inclusion_of does it''s validation *only* on save. Why is that the case? Wouldn''t it make more sense to include update as well? As is, I can only create an object with a valid column option, but I can update the column to whatever. Seems a bit odd to me... Any one able to shed some light on this for me? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~

Hi I''ve got a problem validating a boolean and I can''t see what the problem is. Here''s my model: class FinanceAgreement < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :asset validates_presence_of :finance_company validates_inclusion_of :balance, :in => 0.01..10_000_000 validates_inclusion_of :term, :in => 1..600 validates_numericality_of

Sorry if I''m just dumbing out, but is there a reason that when using Single Table Inheritance Rails doesn''t really validate the "type" field or provide some mechanism to do so? seems like a good way to corrupt a database. Because the "type" is also a special attribute, I had to resort to an ugly hack like: class ActiveRecord::Base def type_attr

When I run ./script/plugin discover to register new plugin sites I get stopped at this point with the following error. ... http://svn.northpub.com/plugins/ http://rhnh.svnrepository.com/svn/public/rails/plugins/ (eval):3:in `each'': undefined method `[]'' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.2/lib/commands/plugin.rb:658:in

I am setting up an AR mock object and wanted to sanity check it. My intent is to mix this into all my examples and then override/add methods where necessary. Note that I''ve anticipated three cases for find: find with one numeric argument => object find with :all => Array find with anything else => nil This roughly approximates how ActiveRecord::find works in this case

This is the code I''m trying to get to work: validates_inclusion_of :status, :in => poll_statuses().keys def poll_statuses return { "closed" => "Closed", "open" => "Open" } end It says there''s no poll_statuses method in Poll. How do I access this method? I''ve tried

Hi, I am trying to validate a numeric value passed in from a form, which is saved in a MySQL db as decimal(9,2) Now problem is I need to ensure people don''t enter a form value like -. 003. In my validations, I have a validates_numericality_of check being done. Furthermore, in validate method, I have a check using an if statement such as : ((an_object[n].nil? or an_object[n] < 0) and

Here''s the issue: When I submit a form for updating, @person.update_attributes doesn''t work. But the next nested clause for updating images DOES work. How is that possible? However no matter what I do the Person object will not change its attributes. def edit @person = Person.find(params[:id]) if request.post? @person.update_attributes(params[:person])

Hi there I''ve got a copy of the ''Beginning Ruby on Rails Ecommerce'' book and am trying to integrate ActiveMerchant into my app. My order.rb file has the line: ''include ActiveMerchant::Billing'' per the book. My Order model also has, amongst other things, the following validation: '' validates_inclusion_of :billing_country, :in =>
