similar to: RESTful routes and resulting urls

Hi all I''m using RESTful routes combined with the to_csv plugin and would like to know if there''s a nicer way of generating a link to fetch the CSV file than just making a hard link. This is what I use for the moment (and it works btw): <%= link_to("Export as CSV","/companies.csv") -%> I would expect the link helper to have something like

is there a way to access a restful resource with mike''s new link_to_remote helper? something like: <%= link_to_remote h(user.name), :update => "div_id", :url => user_url(user) %> of course, that doesn''t work. i have also been trying things like: :url => controller.asset_host +

I am trying the Restful-Authentication (latest version, downloaded today) and upon running the generator, doing the migration, prepping the test system and putting the resources in routes.rb I get a Rspec test failure: ''SessionsController logins and redirects'' FAILED expected not nil, got nil routes.rb has: map.resources :users map.resources :sessions nothing else was

I''m running file_column 0.3.1, and having a few problems... which are: - Uploading a 378x567 jpg, and using :magick => {:geometry => "100x100" }, my image ends up being 67x100 ? Is there a way to "force" the image to be the size you specify ? - My view has a drop-down of sizes, and I''m trying to pass in this size into :magick =>

Hi all, I would first like to introduce myself to the Ruby on Rails (RoR) community and to say that I hope to begin to build some relationships with other RoR developers. I''m a long time Java programmer (5+ years). Java was my first experience with Object Oriented Programming (OOP).

hi all, i just did a ''gem update --source gems.rubyonrails.org'' and then a ''gem cleanup'' and all appeared to run smoothly but now when i start up a webrick server i get the following: /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:204:in `report_activate_error'': RubyGem version error: activesupport(1.2.0 not = 1.1.1) (Gem::LoadError) from

I can sent my own action to a users_controller stating in routes.rb map.resources :users, :member => { :network => get } I defined in my users_controller the network action.... so I can have an url like "http://localhost:3000/users/168.xml;network" now I would like to have another action network_plus which is a little bit different fron the network.. sure, I can state another

Hi, Apologies for reposting this for those who read this via ruby-forum, but it didn''t make it to the list before, and the list seems more active... I''m using ferret (via acts_as_ferret) in a somewhat unorthodox manner and am having a strange wildcard problem. Before anyone wonders why we''re doing things this way, the answer is basically that it lets us

Hello, I''m trying to go all REST of my application. But i''ve come to one problem. How do i do payment, using IPN, in a RESTful way? right now i have an Payments controller. With 2 actions. action "new" shows a page with a paypal button. action "paypal_ipn" is where paypal sends its notifications. How would i go about doing this in a REST environment? Thank

Hi, I just ran into a bizarre problem when I put my site into production. I have a resource (call it xxx), then I created with the generate script. I then set up page caching on the show action. But now in the production environment, trying to call the edit action results in the show page being retreived from the cache. I''m assuming this has to do with the similarity of the URL

Hi, I was trying to write a RESTful service and was planning on testing via tools such as cURL and the basic http libs. With the InvalidAuthenticityToken piece that is turned by default in Rails 2.0.2, I have to provide the token with each request. This is something of a pain for a programmable client that may not make a GET request before performing other actions, specifically POST, PUT and

i have created some ''public'' controllers like so: ./script/generate controller example and an ''admin'' controller like this: ./script/generate controller admin/example now i want to have caching in the ''public'' controllers so i add something like this: caches_action :show, :whatever but i want the ''admin'' controller to do

Hi everyone, I''m working on creating a site that functions similar to digg.com (please no "no more digg clones" remarks please! :) ). One thing I really like about digg is there URLs are very nice to read and I would like to emulate that without having a lot of actions spread out all over my application. So in my app I have three main resources: Users, Tags, and Items

I have this Product.find(:all, :include => [:brand, :category, :type], :group => "description"), but it dont group by description why? Bruno -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

IE6 happily sends unsafe* characters unencoded if you''ve typed them into the URL bar of your IE6 window. This could happen if you copy & paste a URL from an email or web page. Mongrel doesn''t seem to handle these properly. In 0.3.13.3 it would print out something like: Sun Oct 15 23:05:38 CST 2006: BAD CLIENT (192.168.1.2): Invalid HTTP format, parsing fails. 0.3.13.5

Hi.. Guys new plugin again Foreign Key Associations is a plugin that automatically creates associations based on foreign-keys. The associations are created at runtime-ie. as your ActiveRecord models are loaded-so they will always be up-to-date. For example, given a foreign-key from a customer_id column in an orders table to an id column in a customers table, the plugin creates:

Hi all, The app I am making right now uses restful routing entirely. I want to prevent people from accessing my actions without the proper HTTP verb so I commented out the :controller/:action/:id catch all routes that were used in pre-RESTful Rails apps. Like so: #map.connect '':controller/:action/:id.:format'' #map.connect '':controller/:action/:id''

Hi, I am trying to spec helper methods in a Rails project, but it seems the specs fail with the error: You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occurred while evaluating nil.<< if the restful routes helper are used either in spec files, or the helper file. What can I be doing wrong? Or how can I fix this.

Hi, how is it possible that I can use the restful routes helpers (e.g. new_user_path) in controller specs? I browsed the source code but I couldn''t find the magic. I''m just curious and would appreciate any hint... thanks Andi
