similar to: ActiveModel::Serializers::JSON support arbitrary keys

This is a small, straightforward patch that I''d love to see merged: https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994-ruby-on-rails/tickets/4358-patch-add-root-option-to-activemodel-json-serialization It''s all pretty self-explanatory, it basically just ports a useful option from to_xml to to_json, making their interfaces more compatible with each other. Feedback would be greatly

Hi all, I''m using Rails 3.0, and I have a model which validates if the attribute :name is present. On my my views, I use Jquery to submit the form which creates the model. If the name is not present, Rails returns something like this Json: [''Name is a required value''] Is there a way to make it return something like this? [''name'': ''Name is a

Hi all, In my controller I am doing the following to populate a nested form for a has_many through association: def new @specification = Specification.new Component.find_each.each do |component| @specification.component_specifications.build(:component_id => component.id) end The idea being whenever someone creates or edits a form, it will be populated with all

Hi , Am using rails 3 .I have added code in my controller ----------------------------------------------------------------------- la.map{|c| ActiveRecord::Base::Serializer.new(c).serializable_record ----------------------------------------------------------------------- But am getting below error ------------------------------------------------------------ NoMethodError (undefined method

I am assuming this an appropriate place to discuss this, but if it isn''t my apologies- just let me know. Just a Rails 4-ish thing. Am attempting to pull AMS (active_model_serializers), strong_parameters, and the "permitter" strategy that Adam Hawkins is using: http://broadcastingadam.com/2012/07/parameter_authorization_in_rails_apis/ Code so far is here (in the

Hi, Version: prototype 1.6.0 I''m using the $F function to get the value of a field. It works fine in FireFox, but IE 6 and 7 are reporting "object does not support his property or method" (translated from german). In IE debugger it hightlights the line 3485: --- return Form.Element.Serializers[method](element); --- I searched the web, but this problem seems to be quite unique

I know that there is an ActiveModel Validator class https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/activemodel/lib/active_model/validator.rb which is used for the class level validation macros. But I didn''t find a an ActiveRecord Validator class. From my understanding in Rails 3, validations have been moved into ActiveModel to leave ActiveRecord as an ORM. So now I see this Rails 3 code

In ActionDispatch::PolymorphicRoutes, there is a call to build_named_route_call an on line 172 (of latest rails code from github), there is a call to singular_route_key: model_name_from_record_or_class(parent).singular_route_key Now model_name_from_record_or_class returns an ActiveModel::Name object, which is a wrapper to the string class, that returns a string name of the class of an

When submitting billing information in the past I''ve always used attr_accessor for credit card details as they should not be saved in the database. In addition I always end up storing the card expiration date so that the date form helper works correctly. With Active Model it seems logical to create a CreditCard class to hold this data instead. **1st issue.** It seems there still

Hi guys Seeing `composed_of` removed I put together a quick proof-of-concept ValueObject implementation on top of ActiveModel and ActiveRecord `serialize`. https://gist.github.com/3070184 Features: - VO''s are immutable - VO''s are identified by their attributes - VO''s can be conveniently created from hashes (with a little extra work) What do you think? -- You

Well, I''m trying to install Rails through gems in a Linux box `sudo gem i rails --pre` I''m getting this: ERROR: Error installing rails: activemodel requires activesupport (= 3.1.0.rc6, runtime) Which is funny, because when I check `gem list` I get activesupport (3.1.0.rc6) bcrypt-ruby (2.1.4) builder (3.0.0) i18n (0.6.0) multi_json (1.0.3) I don''t know what to

In my attempt to add AM:Dirty to my model I realized that AM#AttributeMethods is a bit imperfect. It''s impossible to generate attribute methods step-by-step in DataMapper-like manner. class Model include ActiveModel::Dirty def self.property(name, klass = String) define_property_accessors(name, klass) # This method will be called once, because of

Trying to setup a tableless model, and serialize it to XML, but am getting: NameError: undefined local variable or method `attributes'' anyone know what I need to get the attributes method defined? thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I''m a Django/Catalyst user that''s evaluating Rails ... I need a Ruby framework, and I''m trying to see if learning Rails is worth it or I should just go for Sinatra + various libs available. Django has a couple of things I like ... 1) the Forms API In Django I like that it''s being decoupled from models ... form objects have fields with validation rules that

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

Greetings, I''m getting this - ActiveModel::MissingAttributeError: missing attribute: some_attr - on a random basis under a unicorn server, running rails 3.2 and ruby 1.9.3 As the case of the last poster in the following thread - https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/1906 - I too am able to resolve this issue by settingpreload_app to false. However, this is not the behaviour I want to

The way Rails handles root nodes in JSON and XML serialization is inconsistent. This has been discussed before: https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/2584-232-activeresource-json-doesnt-send-parameters-with-root-node This seems mostly taken care of with ActiveModel::Base.include_root_in_json, especially if/when it ends up in ActiveResource. However, there is also the issue of how

Is there a way to tell Rails to ignore attr_accessible when seeding the database and to allow mass assignment with create or new? I know how to skip validations but do not find anything on mass assignment... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Hello, I''m trying to find a very abstract and "one size fits all" for converting nested active record results to nested hashes. It''s easy, to do one level deep as such: [code] results_to_hash = Hash[ found_categories.map{ |c| [c.id, c.title]}] [/code] But, when I try to add another collection to the mix, it completely borks and the results_to_hash only returns an

Cheers, Prototype 1.5.0_rc0 breaks backwards compatability with this diff in Form.Element.Serializers: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/changeset/4147 I have explicit value="" in my options and now I get the text submitted.
