similar to: RSpec and resource_controller plugin

Hi all. I''m getting the following error in my app: undefined method `redirect_to'' for ActionController::Base:Class I''m using Windows 2000, Rails 2.0.2 and resource_controller (from James Golick). My controller: class CommentsController < ApplicationController include ResourceController::Controller belongs_to :post, :article, :photo create do

Hi I''m a big fan of plugins such as Resource Controller http://jamesgolick.com/2007/10/19/introducing-resource_controller-focus-on-what-makes-your-controller-special However, recently decided I don''t want to depend on a plugin for this, and would rather stick closer to the rails core. So does anyone have any cool strategies or ideas for achieving this? Or is there any move to

Hi, I just have a "best practices" question. I''d like to block users that don''t own a particular resource from performing edit/update/ destroy actions on it. Here''s how I currently do it: ## User has many resources, of different types ------- resource_controller.rb ------- before_filter :require_ownership, :only => [:edit, :update, :destroy] ... public

I''ve got a love-hate relationship with script/generate rspec_scaffold If you are using non-nested controllers/resources it''s great. I love the spec skeletons it generates. But I find myself doing this, where Y is and existing set of model/controller ... representing a resource: 1) script/generate rspec_scaffold x .... At this point rake spec passes. 2) edit config/routes.rb

Hi, I''m really new to rails, so i programmed some stuff and today i read some things about skinny Controllers, fat models. My Controllers are really fat now. So i''m asking myself how can i shrink my controllers and move the code to the models, especially in fact of REST e.g. in focus on error codes? code example: # POST /tasks # POST /tasks.xml def create @authorized

I have following resource defined in my config/routes.rb (the model name is contrived) map.resources :foo_items, :as => :foo that I originally generated with rspec_scaffold: ruby script/generate rspec_scaffold foo_item but when I use the :as attribute in resources to make the URI path be ''/foo'' instead of ''/foo_items'' the default/generated controller

Hey guys, I''m quite new in RoR, so please excuse me when I may ask weird questions. I am working on a database frontend. The layout looks mostly like a has_many bs b has_many cs c has_many ds and so on. Now I want to do some selection. Maybe I want to see all ds belonging to a specific b. I would like to do it like: http://my.host/bs/1/ds When I click around there (add new ds, show a d

Hi, I''m just playing with ActiveResource and I did''nt find anything about the support of (polymorphic) associations. Is there a support at all?

Recently as a result of using Git I''ve noticed a number of inconsistencies in the RSpec codebase with respect to whitespace (mixed line endings, mixed use of spaces and tabs for indentation, and trailing whitespace at the end of lines). I never would have noticed, but Git produces nice colorized diff output which highlights these kinds of inconsistencies. I wanted to ask if the

Hi all, How can I use spec fixtures with rails integration tests ? I''ve tried adding {{ fixtures "../../spec/fixtures/myfixture" }} to the integration test but the fixtures are not loaded when I run the rake task. Rails doesn''t load symlinked fixtures either so I copied the files from spec/fixtures for the time being. Not very DRY. Any ideas ? Keith

Winecfg contains potentially harmful configuration parameters (like native overrides) and are shown in the same way as useful configuration parameters like windows version or virtual desktop. Maybe creating a box where a user can select it's level of knowledge in wine and hide part of the interface accordingly. It could also be used to show warning informations when changing this level for

If it helps anyone developing Rails, apps, or gems, I wrote a shortcut for set_trace_func, so next time you want to just add a line before and after some function you are trying to debug you can have Ruby temporarily output every line, method, etc. executed. Also, it lets you define the format, use other loggers, etc. via a proc/lambda define, since you might not like the default format.

I''ve just stumbled (literally, while I was trying to fix a glitch I was having after upgrading Aegis...) on the Inherited Resources gem... why did no-one tell me?! ;-) Is everyone else using some form of controller base-class?

Hi, I''m getting an error I just can''t find any cause for. The error is "A copy of ApplicationHelper has been removed from the module tree but is still active!" and gets thrown in a Template that uses a method defined in my ApplicationHelper. The error occurs only in development mode. The error did not occur before my switch to Ruby 1.8.7 and Rails 2.1.2 minutes ago. I

First of all hi, I''m new to the list, and rather new to rspec as will probably show in myquestion. I have tried installing rspec and rspec_on_rails as plugs both using "script/install" and "piston import" commands using the "current release install instructions" here [1]. However, there doesn''t seem to be any mention of the rspec_resource

I ran into something really puzzling today. I don''t know exactly why it''s happening, but I thought I''d share my experiences. I started a dummy app just to test an idea outside of the context of my real work today. So, I quickly get things started: * rails junk * cd junk * ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/ CURRENT/rspec * ruby

All, Sorry for spamming this list about this but I think everyone who could help me with this problem is on this list... If there is a better place to post this question let me know. Anyways, I am trying to use rspec_on_rails_matchers in my rails app to improve my view specs but I can''t get them to work. The helpers for the form tags never seem to be called. I created a new Rails

I use rspec_scaffold to generate a part of examples as below: it "should expose a newly created awarding_body as @awarding_body" do AwardingBody.should_receive(:new).with({''these'' => ''params''}).and_return(mock_awarding_body(:save => true)) post :create, :awarding_body => {:these => ''params''}
