similar to: :through => 'this', :that => acts_as_tree?!

Guys, I''m having a problem getting acts_as_tree working. It seems from the Agile book (p. 255) that acts_as_tree only supports one-to-one record relations, whereas I need many-to-many support. In other words, looking at the picture at the top of page 256 where where only 1 id is linked to 1 parent_id, I need multiple id''s linked to multiple parent_id''s - for

Hi, I''m trying to implement a very simple acts_as_tree search in my index html. I am able to show the parents, with no issue, but the children will not show. I have something like this for the parent, which displays fine: <% for group in Group.roots %> <td> <tr> <a href="#" onclick="Effect.BlindDown(''show_<%=

I''m using acts_as_tree to maintain a hierarchy of categories (each top-level category can contain multiple categories and each sub-category can contain multiple sub-categories, etc.). I want to be able to find all parents of a particular category. I realize that I can use @category.parent or even @category.parent.parent to move up in the hierarchy, but I need this to happen dynamically

Hello people on rails, I am developing a web interface for a database that has hierarchical data. I want the user to be able to browse the tree (~1300 nodes) and activate/deactivate and showing/hiding groups of nodes (like selecting one node selects all the children and the leafs). So I have a tree of objects (ActiveRecord acts_as_tree). Because I need the tree to be persistent and I

I am struggling with how to do eager loading of an acts_as_tree model. If the model Stuff acts_as_tree I know I can do this to get children as well: Stuff.find(:all, :include => :children) But what if the model I am including is the one that acts_as_tree? For example, say Picture belongs_to Category. Category acts_as_tree and I want to get all pictures that are members of a category that

I am working on an Rails application that uses a pretty complex category structure through out the site. I have defined a table to house all the info and a FK to reference parents within the table CREATE TABLE categories ( id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, name varchar(50) NOT NULL, parent_id int(11) default NULL, constraint fk_category_id foreign key (category_id) references

So I have a model that acts_as_tree and I run a method on a collection of all of these records. This method walks the tree and fetches the parent/children, etc. This results in many, many duplicate SQL queries to be executed. Is there a way to eagerly load all of these models? Something along the lines of: Model.find(:all, :include => [:children, :parent]) If I execute the above statement, I

Hi There! I''d like some feedback before I try to implement some funky rails routes based on an acts_as_tree model. I have a Page model that acts_as_tree. I''d like the URLs to look something like this: http://localhost/about-us/staff/jeff or, another example... http://localhost/what-we-do/products/our-great-cms/features/faqs/ So, as many sub-nodes the user creates,

I want to implement a unique category tree per user in my system, and I was hoping to use "acts_as_tree" on my category model. It seems as if acts_as_tree makes the assumption that the entire table the model is off of is one large tree. I actually want each user to have their own category trees all stored in the category table so I need it to scope off of the user_id.

i have acts_as_tree installed as plugin under rails 2.0.2 and also its defined in class TreeItems, but when i put this in my view <ul class="tree_level1" id="cars">Furniture <% TreeItem.root.category.children do |cat_children| %> <li><a class="list_item" href="#"><%=h cat_children.name %></a></ li> <%

Hello all, I''m having trouble using acts_as_list with acts_as_tree to order the "children". I''ve found a few old posts on the web that seem to indicate that this once worked. class Whatever < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_tree :order => :position acts_as_list :scope => :parent_id Although the ''position'' field is being populated, it appears

Hello, I''m trying to create categories that have their own subcategories, and each subcategory may have its own subcategories, .. and so on. After some reading, I found out that the best way for creating such a thing is to use acts_as_tree, but I didn''t find any tutorial or article that explain this in a clear way. After a lot of work I was finally able to create categories and

Hi folks, For my app, I needed to modify acts_as_tree (ActiveRecord::Acts::Tree) such that deleting a node would orphan sub-nodes, rather than deleting them. This is accomplished simply by allowing a :dependent option to the acts_as_tree method so that it can be set to :nullify. For my app, I simply did this by adding a file tree.rb to my lib directory and requiring it in the model. A number

Hi there, the acts_as_tree API says that I can set a counter cache and that it will automatically increment the "children_count" column. I did that but when I create a new page it asks for a "pages_count" column instead. Here is the relevant part of page.rb model: class Page < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_tree :order => :position, :counter_cache => true

hello there, i have a model that uses acts_as_tree: >class GbEntry < ActiveRecord::Base > acts_as_tree :order => ''created_at DESC'' >end and i want it to paginate, including all children to avoid unnecessary db queries: > @gb_entry_pages, @gb_entries = > paginate :gb_entries, :per_page => 15, :order => ''created_at DESC'',

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Larry White <ljw1001@gmail.com> Date: May 23, 2006 10:35 AM Subject: filtering results in acts_as_tree To: rails@lists.rubyonrails.org I''m using a logical delete for a table and want to use acts_as_tree with it.

my application is using acts_as_tree to create a directed graph. Everyone would work fine, except that nothing prevents the user to create a circular reference: >> item.parent=child >> item.save => true >> child.parent=item >> child.save => true I checked in the database, and there it is: an item that has as parent its own child! item.parent_id = child_id I

I''m currently using acts_as_tree to display threaded Comments on my forums-like site. It''s waaay too slow to display a page with 1,000 comments, as it''s issuing a TON of selects. I''m pretty sure I want to convert to the nested set model, using acts_as_nested_set or acts_as_threaded. This should give me the performance I''m looking for. The problem,

Hello Railslist, I want to draw a simple single-table Acts_as_tree model. I''ve read some articles about it and read the API docs, and now I''ve got this running: in controller I have: --- def index @pages = Page.find(:all) end --- in the model for Page I have ofcourse: --- acts_as_tree :order => "position" --- in the helper I have; --- def
