I am working on streamlining one of my apps, and trying to wrap my hands around through, polymorphic, and with_scope. All of these i know i need for what i want to do, based on the little documentation I have found. With this in mid I have tried to implement a simple through in the app to try and get my head around it. This is what I have: class Product < ActiveRecord::Base

I have two models Club and users. users are regular authenticated users and some of them might create a club. A club can also have members (essentially users) and there are attributes and models that apply to member but not to users. Here is what I have right now. Club => belongs_to :user User => has_many clubs (since a user can host multiple clubs). Now how do I fit this member model

I am using the following (which works in the console): @patients = Account.find(session[:account_id]).patients.find(:all, :include => [:patient_details]) How can I address the patient_details to display them in the view?

An Account has_many Websites which in turn has_many WebsiteDomains Now I can of course do this: @domains = Account.find(1).websites.find(1).website_domains.find(:all) To get all the domains for Account with id 1 and Website with id 1. I would like to do something like this though: @domains = Account.find(1).websites.find(:all).website_domains.find(:all) IE, get ALL domains for all websites in

I''m working with a has_many :through association, where a Member has_many Projects through ProjectViewers. The problem I''m running into is that Rails doesn''t load the association so line (3) fails until I explicitly access a member of the collection (in this case, I iterated it). Is there a better way? Thanks, Steve 1. assigns[:member].should_not_be_nil 2.

Hi, I have a situation I''m hoping someone out there may be able to shed some light on. I have a Rails app (2.1.0 on Ruby 1.8.7) with a wizard-based sign up process, that has recently been changed from storing incremental data in the database to having a medium sized object graph living in the user session until the user completes the entire sign up process (this is a business

No matter what I try I''ve been unable to work how to get this to work with the cool ActiveRecord helpers. I''m not sure if it''s possible, Josh Susser''s blog suggests it is, but damned if I can work it out... I have: Container which can contain one or more Element. An Element is a polymorph of either a Container or a Chunk. An Element can exist in one or more

This SystemStackError is driving me crazy. It only takes place when testing with WEBrick - I can''t reproduce it with any tests. It is caused by calling the "missing" id method (base.rb:2435) on my ActiveRecord class. WEBrick and my tests are running as the same user, with a `ulimit -s` of 10240. Plus the query works sometimes so I don''t think this matters.

My application is going to have a work queue of scheduled tasks stored in the DB. This work queue will be shared across multiple Rails app servers. I need a way to ensure that no two servers get the same jobs if multiple servers pop jobs off the top of the queue simultaneously. Is there a fairly simple way to acheive this? Or do I need to come up with some fancy secondary server to dispatch

I had a similar problem yesterday. I would go to the root of my site and I would get a Too Many Redirects message. It seems like there was an infinite loop. After struggling for over an hour yesterday late at night, it seemed like I fixed it. But now, when I want to create a New User, it''s redirecting me to the Sign In screen. Seems like I didn''t fix the problem completely. I

hi folks. on rails 4, can somebody confirm that pushing model instances onto a has_many :through relation does not create the necessary join model anymore? class Reader < AR::Base belongs_to :post belongs_to :person end class Post < AR::Base has_many :readers has_many :people, through: :readers end @post.people << Person.new so,
