similar to: Lack of foreign-key constraints support in ActiveRecord

Hi, While I was hacking ovirt-server, I have found that it's currently restricted to Postgres DB. Even if I like postgres for serious work on a server, I really prefer to hack/dev locally on a Sqlite or MySQL DB. I have googled on rails in order to find a good answer for the "foreign key problem" which forces OVirt to stay on pg. I have found a plugin on this particular

Even with Spork, my requests specs are very slow to start running (about 7 seconds). I suspect Rails is booting each time I run "rspec -X spec/requests". Is that true? If so, is there any way I could instruct the web server to keep alive after the specs run so that it would be faster on next run? Are there any resources on how to have better performance on running requests specs

Is there any reason why db:setup and db:reset don''t show any more on "rake -T db"? I guess any rake task that is defined only as a group of other tasks (without any ruby blocks attached) presents this problem. Also let me write this as a remember note to myself for when I have some time: the Rails Guides on Migrations should be updated to include instructions about db:load

Running "rake assets:clobber assets:precompile" will generate files like "application-xxx.css" with incorrect urls after upgrading to Rails 4. For example url(/fields/xxx.png) when it should be url(/assets/fields/xxx.png). For some unknown reason it worked once in development mode, but after running rake assets:clobber I can''t get it to work again... Any ideas

Hi Folks, There is much discussion where I work at present regarding migrations, and the ''correct'' usage or not of them. TL;DR Should migrations be used just to modify schema, and other ''deploy'' tasks done other ways? If yes, how to ensure no repeat runs of such tasks (seeds, jobs etc) Background Once you''re live there are often additional things

Is there any way to prevent Rails 3 from using an ORM? In Rails 2, it used to have a description in environments.rb explaining how to do that. In Rails 3, is there any way to tell it to not use any database? I was trying to make some benchmarks from situations that don''t require a database...

I''m testing ruby-head through rvm but can''t get ''ação''.mb_chars.upcase == ''AÇÃO''... I get ''AçãO'' instead... This happens both for Rails 2.3.5 and Rails 3 beta 3... How can I get upcase to work correctly? Thanks in advance, Rodrigo. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby

Hi all, In response to Rodrigo Rosas''s message about mb_chars.upcase not giving the expected result on 1.9, I''ve done some work in a fork to make String#mb_chars always return an instance of a proxy class, both with Ruby 1.8 and Ruby 1.9. The end result of the patch is (hopefully) to make Rails'' multibyte functionality behave the same way in 1.8.7 and 1.9.x.

Recently I''ve found out some mentions to the "--sandbox" parameter to the "rails console" command. And I found the idea interesting, but since I''m using Sequel instead of ActiveRecord I guessed this wouldn''t work for me. But after talking about this subject in the Sequel mailing list, Jeremy Evans has brought to my attention that there are some

Dear all great developers. I wonder if there is any work being done or thoughts being shared regarding prepared SQL statements. Currently I am in heavy need of tuning SQL INSERTS that insert large (3MB) images into blobs. I am using rails 2.3.5 with postgres adapter and pg driver. Any information would be appreciated.

Today I had a strange behavior that made me suspect of jQuery at first, but then it happened that I''ve faced two gotchas, one from CoffeeScript and one from Rails itself. I have something like this: routes.rb post ''/fields/:id.:format'' => ''fields#show'', as: :field, constraints: {id: /\d+/} post ''/fields/remove/:id''

If so, shouldn''t it be documented in the Rails API? Or is there a better way to allow class reloading of my files under lib. I mean, I know about config.autoload_paths, but I want to be explicit about my requires. I just want to be able to reload then on each request when I''m working on them. require_dependency seems to do just that but I''m worried since it is not

ZOMG HAPPY TUESDAY (UTC-7)!!! <3<3<3<3<3 I am happy to announce that the first release candidate for Rails 3.0.6 has been pushed to rubygems.org. ## Release Candidate: What does it mean? The release candidate is very similar to what we will actually release for version 3.0.6. The reason that we release an RC is so that the community can have a chance to postpone or veto commits

Along the same lines as the default javascript library discussion [1], why don''t we switch the default test library to RSpec? The stats [2] posted by Xaviar in the other thread seem to support that RSpec is the preferred way to test.

While it was a good move from Rails part to escape ERB <%= %> tags by default, it doesn''t seem to happen to Sprockets as well. The strange bit is that according to Sprockets documentation, it would be just a matter of naming your template as .jst.eco to enable Eco: https://github.com/sstephenson/sprockets#javascript-templating-with-ejs-and-eco Then, extracted from Eco

What''s the best way to exclude ActiveRecord in Rails3? In Rails2, one could just do: *config.frameworks -= [ :active_record ]* in the configuration block in environment.rb. Is it possible in Rails3?

In 2fe70c1 (last year), rails changed from a static list of assets.paths to automatically register any path under assets/*. (This was not reflected in Rails Guides so I pushed an update to docrails.) However, in my opinion, these automatic asset paths create confusion. The result is that the first-level directories under `(app|lib|vendor)/assets` get swallowed and if I put assets into a
