Hi, for those of you who haven''t read: http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2006/05/08/flummoxed-by-frameworks/ ""Oh", they gush, "you should absolutely try Ruby on Rails! It''s so easy! It''s almost like writing regular English!" Which means they''re clearly on crack, because Ruby on Rails is so very different from a human-written language

Hi, Sebastian Kanthak of the file_column-Plugin wrote once: "is the photo object inside a local variable or an instance variable (e.g. photo or @photo)? url_for_file_column only works with instance variables, like all other active record form helpers. Could this be the problem?" So I''m using file_column in a partial, e.g. <%= render (:partial => "product",

Hallo zusammen, dann will ich mal wieder ein bi?chen Schwung auf die RoR-Liste bringen: Schildert doch einfach mal eure Erfahrungen mit Tools rund um Rails, also zum Beispiel Capistrano (formerly known as Switchtower), RadRails etc. Welche Plugins setzt ihr ein, von welchen w?rdet ihr abraten?

Howdy folks, As I was putting together a rough form for a rails app, I got to thinking how much smoother (in my siytuation) a little calendar widget would be than the default date picker selects. Does anyone know if such a thing exists ? I suspect it would have to be somewhat designed with rails in mind to populate the right kind of post params for convenient use at the controller end.

Hi all, I just finished building a CMS (open source, MIT license, same as RoR) that is aimed at people with portfolios: graphic designers, photographers, web developers, etc. Since this fits the Rails demographic well, and I plan to continue actively developing the project, I expect it to be a hit. Some features: * 100% semantic XHTML * Built on Ruby on Rails * AJAXified administration *

I left ":memory:" in database.yml for testing and the most simple tests in the Agile book do not work (see trace below for test_truth). Since that''s what comes with the distributed database.yml I suppose it''s me doing something wrong. Did someone get SQLite ":memory:" working? How does it grab the schema? -- fxn % rake test_units (in

I''m having (to me) a strange problem with errors when running my tests with rake as opposed to using ruby.

Hi all, I''ve got some tables with fixed amounts of data in them (a "states" table, for example). For tables like this I can easily put *all* of the data in the fixture. For general futzing purposes, and for those times I want to reload a database from scratch outside of testing (for whatever reason), what''s the best approach? I thought perhaps ActiveRecord::Base had

Hi all! I''m looking into the testing chapter of Agile Web Development With Rails (2nd ed.). I want to performance test my app, but I''m too lazy to write fixtures for performance test. I''d rather use the data from my development db (because the data is so close to the production data). How do I get the data into the test db without writing fixtures? Could you please

I was trying to deal with foreign key issues related to order of fixture loading when I came across this: http://techpolesen.blogspot.com/2007/04/rails-fixture-tips.html This got me looking deeper into rails and I noticed that db:fixtures:load calls Fixtures.create_fixtures once for each fixture file. However, Fixtures.create_fixtures is capable of taking multiple files and also handle the

Hi, Is it possible to populate the development database from the test fixtures? I''m trying to keep the development database schema in a plain-text sql file and modifying that when I need to modify the database structure. However, then I have to either manually repopulate the database or add in additional sql statements that populate the test database. It seems like it would be useful

I''m working with a legacy postgresql database where the names of tables, columns, etc., do not usually follow Rails conventions.

There a few php solutions that I would like to integrate with my Rails app. Namely PHPBB(No offense RForum) and WordPress.
