similar to: form builder

hi, lets say routes.rb has map.resources :foo and I want the show action to have a diffent url, so I add (after the above line) map.foo ''/bar/:id'', :controller => ''foo'', :action => ''show'' this works fine, including foo_path( :id => "1") => /bar/1 and <%= link_to ''Show'', foo %>

Hi, i''m trying to figure out how to do a query with an ambiguous condition Lets say Comment belongs_to :article and :user, and Article :belongs_to :user How can I find the comments by one user on articles by another user in one query? This doesnt work, but is kind of the idea: Comment.find :all, :conditions => {''users.name'' =>

I have a date where the year range is more then I want to define in a select_date scaffold generated year range. My idea was to have the year entered as a text field and the month and day using something like: <%= select_month @person.born,:prefix => :person ,:field_name => "born(2i)" %> <%= select_day @person.born,:prefix => :person , :field_name =>

Good afternoon all I''m trying to implement a form that dynamically inserts radio buttons into a form. The user selects options from a drop-down menu. I use observe_field to watch for a change and call back to render the appropriate partial tha contains the radio options. All works nicely but I''m tripped up on one thing: When rendering a form using form_for how do I link those

Hi, is there a way to keep the already entered form fields when the form is re-displayed after some error has been detected and reported to the user via flash? Regards IJD -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, My helper specs were going ok until I added a call to a rails DateHelper method in one of my helpers http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActionView/Helpers/ DateHelper.html#M000574 The helper runs fine from my view templates, just dies in the spec test. I boiled my question down to a simple (not too useful) example. I''m not sure what I''m missing. #

Here''s what I''ve got: <% @fields.each do |field_name| %> <tr> <td> <%= field_name.humanize %> </td> <td> <% unless field_name =~ /_id$/ %> <%= form.text_field field_name, :size => 40 %> <% else %> <%= select(:vendor, field_name, State.find(:all, :order

hi, When I run rake spec , it seems to be starting with my default environment (development or production) and connects to that database, before actually connecting to the test one and proceeding with the tests. When I remove the development database, the specs wont run. How do i initiate rspec to be test environment from the start? I dont see this when i run using script/spec linoj

Is there a decent way to add a field to a form before posting it? I haven''t tried using HPricot manipulations just yet, since I can''t ever find really solid docs on hpricot.... Form#[]= doesn''t work because it first searches only pre-existing fields. I''m investigating how to write a patch now. But I thought maybe someone here might have an idea.

Hi, has anyone here written a capistrano task for rspec to run through my specs on the deployed server? I''d appreciate a snippet or two to get me started. Thx linoj

Hi, I''m trying the specs for restful_authentication I found here http://jonathan.tron.name/articles/2007/01/02/rspec-on-rails-restful- authentication It seems to use custom .should methods: should_eql, should_be_an_instance_of, should_redirect_to, should_be_success, should_not_be_nil, should_be_nil, should_not_be_nil, should_be_empty, should_be_success, should_not_change, and

hi, When running rails spec tests is there a log file generated? i''m looking for generated sql to help me debug like in development.log or is there a way to run the test against a webrick server so i can see logs? (i''m not running with spec_server at the moment, it doesnt seem to work well with autotest) thanks linoj

I''m trying to set up and run a new form builder under rails, which lives under the helpers directory, but isn''t really a helper. (Not a module, so doesn''t mix in well) Short of dropping down into a view spec, how do I set up to actually spec the form builder? describe RandomFormBuilder do attr_reader :builder before do @object = mock_model(Foo) @builder =

I’ve been spending a great deal of time chasing this problem. Hopefully someone sees something obvious I’m doing wrong. Basically anytime I try to call fields_for from an RJS file or within a partial in the RJS file, I get the following error. My goal is simply to load a partial into a div. The fields in this partial require fields_for though. And that’s where the problem lies.

I''m sure this is OT but I''d appreciate the help I''m using rspec_on_rails I prefer to use stable release rather than live dangerously (at least until I can tell the difference between what I might be doing wrong vs problems in rspec). However, I would like to try the RspecScaffoldGenerator fix. I installed (per the docs) last week with the following commands

hello, i would like to display a collection of records on one page (e.g. an author record with all his/her books). a record contains a text_area (e.g. a description of the book) and a date_select (e.g. when the book was published). <% for @book in @author.books %> <%= text_area ''book[]'', ''note'' %> <%= datetime_select

Hi, whats the correct way to spec a rescue? This will raise it but doesnt test my code''s response # controller def edit @foo = Foo.find(params[:id]) rescue flash[:notice] = "Unknown foo #{params[:id]}" redirect_to foos_path end # spec it "should flash error if not found" do Foo.should_receive(:find).and_raise get :edit, :id

hi, is there a way to assert a flash message directly in story runner? Or do I have to go through the response text instead. Then "flash message should say success" do #flash[:notice].should == "User successfully invited" response.should have_text(/User successfully invited/) end linoj

fyi, there doesnt seem to be a link to rspec.lighthouse.com from the new web site (unless I missed it). I guess I expected it under "Community" linoj
