similar to: Plugin to add client side JS forms validation ?

I''ve just put two plugins on RubyForge. Included below are the READMEs. You can get the plugins at svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/valirefl/validation_reflection/trunk svn://rubyforge.org//var/svn/clientsidevali/client_side_validation/trunk Michael Validation Reflection ===================== Version 0.2, 2006-08-06 This plugin adds reflective access to validations -

The validation reflection plugin adds three things (1) Reflective access to validations - ModelClass.reflect_on_all_validations - ModelClass.reflect_on_validations_for(:property) (2) It provides "declarative" methods for defining validations based on database metadata - validates_presence_of_mandatory_content_columns - validates_lengths_of_string_attributes -

I would like to inform the users about attribute validation conditions for form fields using title as in <span title= "cannot be blank" >. The simplest way would be to use the validation error messages already defined in the models, but I cannot find any way to retrieve these messages, when no error has been made. The methods I have tried as errors.full_messages only returns the

I made a brief post on here the other day about this and now I can proudly present the initial release of our unobtrusive_javascript plugin for Rails. We''ll be working with Dan Webb of Vivabit to roll in much of the functionality in his own as-yet unreleased unobtrusive_javascript plugin into a single plugin. This is essentially a preview release and probably not suitable for use on a

Hello people, I''d like to detect whether an attribute of a model has vaildates_presence_of applied to it so I can automatically apply a mandatory (*) to the field...it doesn''t look easy...any ideas? Cheers, -- Dan Webb http://www.danwebb.net

Somewhere between 0.13.1 and the current SVN version the :overwrite_params option to url_for (and related methods) went missing. I can''t tell whether this was deliberate or by mistake, and I have no idea how to get the same functionality in some other way either. Michael -- Michael Schuerig Life is what happens

Hi all, MenuEngine is a small Rails engine that can generate templated drop-down DHTML menus commonly used for web site navigation. Supports creation of menus from a YAML file, from code and from pre-configured HTML. Optionally integrates with UserEngine for authorization. http://www.muermann.org/ruby/menu_engine Project page: http://rubyforge.org/projects/menuengine This is my first attempt

I know there''s wiki page on generating PDF[*], but that''s not really what I want. I don''t need to create arbitrary PDF. What I''d like to do is create PDF templates and fill in the blanks. Roughly, I''m looking for functionality akin to the mail merge feature of word processors, including conditional and repeated elements, say, table rows. Michael

Hey everyone, I''m interested in extending ActiveRecord::Base. I have a special "easier" find function that I want to include in all classes. How can I include this in all classes? Can I just create a model object that does something like this: class ExtendedAR < ActiveRecord::Base def self.special_find ... end end and then all my other classes

I have a model layer containing Movie, Person, Role, and RoleType, making it possible to express facts such as "Clint Easterbunny is director of the movie Gran Milano". The relevant model and associations look like this class Movie < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :roles, :include => :role_type, :dependent => :destroy has_many :participants, :through => :roles, :source

Hi! Say we have a rails active-record-based model called "instance" which can have different states - STOPPED, RUNNING, STARTING_UP, SHUTTING_DOWN, etc... There is a method #start which changes the instance state to STARTING_UP only if it is STOPPED. def start if self.state == STOPPED self.state = STARTING_UP self.save ... end end As you understand if we have multiple

has anyone has any idea how to implement audit trail table for all update / deletion done on records? I''m thinking to have corresponding audit trail table to each table, so everthing before an update or deletion is done, a new record will be insert into the corresponding audit trail table. Is there a way to overwrite the save, destroy, method at the application level? so that I do not

Hi all I have a new migration file created that adds some tables and fills one with some data: create_table :sound_styles do |t| t.column :name, :string, :null => false end create_table :show_types do |t| t.column :name, :string, :null => false end create_table :countries do |t| t.column :name, :string, :null => false end ActionView::Helpers::FormOptionsHelper::COUNTRIES.each

Hi, I found it a while ago, an add-on to Rails for supporting movable select boxes, but I searched through the wiki and the mailing list and couldnt find what I was looking for. I was hoping someone might know of or remember something about the project. Thanks, Dylan.

This is OT but have not been able to get a response elsewhere (stack overflow and the project site itself) so thought someone here might know or have some ideas. First, I am using wkhtmltopdf stand alone without any of the rails gems as I found that for some reason using WickedPdf or PdfKit my pdf''s did not generate with active links from the links from those in the html. When I run

I''m in a dilemma: In order to keep GET requests from deleting objects, I''d like to use the button_to helper to get "something" that generates a POST request. Unfortunately, that something is a form and forms can''t be nested. I''d also like to place buttons related to the same form close to each other. At the top are some navigational buttons

Some of my earlier questions may have hinted ever so slightly in the direction that I''m trying to implement "enumerations". By an enumeration here I mean a class that has a fixed number of immutable instances, which in turn have essentially only a name and a position. Requirements I''ve tried to meet are - Enumeration instances should only be loaded once from the

When a validates_asssociated fails... I get something like Address is invalid is there a way, preferably on a per-association basis to have the error messaage include the actual error like Zipcode is too long (max is 10 characters) _______________________________________________ Rails mailing list Rails-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org

Does anyone has any thoughts about starting a project to simplify client-side form validation and input? I started thinking about this because I think date input in most web applications is broken. I really like Simon Willison''s demo: http://simon.incutio.com/code/js/date-parser/ I think this could be improved (by mapping say shift+left-arrow to the previous day, and

Does anyone have a good working e-mail validator? or even some regexp to make the validates_format_of work right... that would be awesome. Also, maybe an online tutorial for regexp. i''ve always been afraid of it but i think it''s time to face the fears. thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
