similar to: WriteBoard for Programmers? (code support)

I am running the webrick server (/script/server) and I would like to be able to view the application from any browser. However, I can only see my application from a browser opened up on the localhost. When I use any other browser it times out. I have already modified the following line in the /script/server file (I''ve tried the numeric ip address also) so that it is the real ip

Could someone kindly send me a copy of the TextMate macros that pertain to Ruby and Rails? I am assuming they are stored in or can be exported to some kind of plain text file... Sadly I am not yet able to make the leap from Linux (and Windows) to a Mac and I am using Slickedit, which has *zero* built in support for Ruby/Rails. I can add macros and code templates so I thought it might be

Hi, I''d like to use migrations to build my initial database. Is there a gem or plugin that will generate the migration code for initial db if I point it at a live database or sql file? If yes, then can you automatically generate the incremental migrations as well? Thanks, Jason

Hi all, I have a problem with an observer.

Hello all, Anyone have any suggestions on how I could do and display a diffed piece of text in a style similar to Writeboard (strikeouts etc.) Q1) Are there any ruby gems for diff? Q2) How would I represent the diffed text in styled HTML? If there are existing tools, any ideas on how I could write this? Thanks, Vaishal -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Sorry for the repost but I originally posted this as a response to another thread. I have a text field called ''phrase'' but the parameter values always come up as nil and when I check the parameters dumped in the error message I do not get the normal hash you''d expect. Instead of something like {"phrase"=>"jim"} I get:

Anyone know what the Ruby equivalent of PHP''s explode and implode are for arrays? - Jim

would it be possible to get another beta gem posted for switchtower? core rails has been getting nice regular updates to the beta gems, but switchtower is still back at 1962.

I created a project, made a migration, generated scaffolding...start up webrick and I get nothing. To simplify things, I just started another project and generated a controller, still getting nothing. The index page loads fine, but nothing beyond that. If I go to anything that should give me a 404, the page is just blank. The Webrick console just says a 500 (nothing explaining why), and

Hey guys, I often get this problem the first time I try to deploy a rails app on dreamhost and I''m not sure what the cause is. Basically, I have an app that''s running fine on my local machine. I''ve uploaded the app, configured and migrated to the latest version of the db, and set all of the necessary directories to 755. But when I run dispatch.rb in ssh or

Is there a Rails-friendly way to redirect_to an url and post some parameters with that? I''ve tried: redirect_to("http://whatever.com", { ''postme'' => ''this'' }) redirect_to("http://whatever.com", :post => { ''postme'' => ''this'' }) redirect_to("http://whatever.com", :options

I performed an experiment in which I had dhcpd specify a named file ("foo") instead of one based on a client's MAC address. Lo and behold, the same problem occured. The PXE stack requested and was served the right file, the kernel loaded as did the initrd. But again, the boot sequence stopped at "Ready." Keep in mind that the contents of the file are the same as was in the

There was some discussion on this list recently about doing .rcss templates in Rails using a custom template handler. I''ve come up with a very simple way to support rcss without a handler. Turns out all it takes is a route and an action that calls render(:file...). I put a full write-up on my blog earlier today:

Hey Everyone! I have a newsletter system that contains a multitude of different newsletters. In this case three but the system allows the user to add more. Every user can be subscribed to any amount of given newsletters. So what I did was I created a user model, newsletter model, and subscription model. The subscription model belongs to one user and one newsletter. However,

Hey guys, I get a very strange behavior when I attempt to install the Rails gem on my server: [root@hotaces local]# gem install rails --remote Attempting remote installation of ''rails'' Successfully installed rails-1.0.0 Normally it asks if I want to include dependencies etc. etc. This appears to be instant but then when I try to use the rails command it is not there.

Hello All, I''m making a quick application that tracks outgoing links to referral sites. I need to track the user and the url they went to so the easiest way would be to take the entire url as a parameter and log that into the database. I was wondering if I could do something like this with routing: http://www.example.com/user/jump/http://www.myvendor.com/referral.php?

Hi there, i have written a little Ruby Program called RemoteFeature (It?s more a Hack as of now). It lets you run Cucumber/RSpec Features that are defined in a 37Signals-Writeboard and updates the Writeboard automagically. I have made a Screencast about this. It is available at my blog: http://matthiashennemeyer.com . Or direct: http://chocolateco.de/images/remotefeaturesintro.mov Do you have some

Hi all -- The simple question is: How do I set different validations for the same Model, when accessed in different Controllers? Here''s the scenario: I have a store/cart app, with a customer-facing shopping cart, and a typical Admin side. The Admin side also has an Order Entry component, where our staff can enter orders received by fax, telephone, etc. Both the customer-facing cart

Hello all, This is an interesting problem I have been working on. What I have is a little multiuser project request tracking application. What happens is that I log in and create projects and assign people to the projects. Each project has steps associated with it, and the steps need to be done in a certain order. Now, I have to request that the assigned person perform each of the steps, and

I've read that LLVM can convert from C++ to C code. So I've used it in such a way: I'm Windows-user so I used MinGW. I employed this file as the test: llvm-hello.cpp: #include <iostream> int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { system("pause"); return 0; } result of "llvm-g++ C:\llvm_hello.cpp -o C:\llvm_hellopp.exe" worked just fine. as a result of
