I''ve got a really strange problem using belongs_to. I apologize in advance for the length... this is going to take a while to explain. Basic idea: Creating a User requires that the user enter an email address and activation key that matches an existing PendingUser. After creating the user successfully, that pending user should be marked as "used". The problem: When I

#user.rb ------> Model class User < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessible :email, :name, :password, :password_confirmation has_secure_password before_save :create_remember_token . . . . . . . private def create_remember_token self.remember_token = SecureRandom.urlsafe_base64 end end #sessions_controller.rb ------->

Hi there I''ve been running BackgroundRb in production for a few months now. Recently we added encryption onto some of our ActiveRecord fields by hooking in the before_save and after_save callbacks, like: class MyCallback def initialize(attr_names) @attr_names = attr_names end def before_save(model) @attr_names.each do |attr_name| next if

I have written the Users controller and Spec tests correctly for the "successful creation" in the User controller however I get the following two errors: 1) UsersController POST ''create'' success should create a user Failure/Error: lambda do count should have been changed by 1, but was changed by 0 #

I have searched a lot for a solution, but I could not find it! I am trying to make a rails application after watching Michael Hartl''s tutorial and when i fill data manually and submit it nothing happens and nothing records in the Mailers table and I am facing the following error: Failures: 1) Mailer pages mail us with valid information should send a mail Failure/Error: expect

Hi, Very quickly, I''m having trouble calling my before_save ro before_update callbacks when I do something like User.update(id, params["user"]). I notice that Rails is calling after_save but for some reason it doesn''t call the before_save or before_update callbacks. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I was just wondering what about a report that I made almost 2 months ago: Active Record observers broken<https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/4087-activerecord-observers-cant-be-used-for-before-callbacks> I think it''s a pretty big bug. In Rails 3, creating an observer with a "before_save" callback (for instance) will result in all observed models being

Hello all: I''m a RoR newbie who is currently following the Ruby on Rails Tutorial: Learning by Example book (http://ruby.railstutorial.org/ chapters/modeling-users#sec:adding_a_secure_password).

I have an RJS template that does the following page.insert_html :bottom, "some_id", ''<tr id="some_id"><td></td></tr>'' This works just find in safari and firefox. In IE and Opera it doesn''t work so great. Any ideas? Am I doing something wrong here? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

So, under Sqlite2, if I want to update a database''s schema, I have to dump the DB, modify the table''s structure, then go and modify EVERY insert statement. The insert statements look like (from memory): INSERT INTO my_table VALUES (''some_id'', ''some_val'', '''', '''', '''', ''some_other

Hello there, I''m currently building a plugin, for which I need a before_save callback. The method I want to call is in module InstanceMethods, but when I add a before_save foo, foo, as defined as an InstanceMethod, never gets called. This is the first plugin I''m building, after only two weeks of fiddling with Ruby and Rails, so if anyone is kind enough to help me out.... :)

I have 2 models Timesheet and TimeEntry: class Timesheet < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessible :status, :user_id, :time_entries_attributes has_many :time_entries, dependent: :destroy accepts_nested_attributes_for :time_entries, :reject_if => proc { |attributes| attributes[''worktime''].blank? } end class TimeEntry < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessible :task_id,

I was just working on a project where I needed to use Ajax.Updater with a synchronous request. It appears like all one would need to do is set the asynchronous option to false. I tried this and noticed that the content was being requested synchronously but the content was never injected into the DOM tree like one would expect from Ajax.Updater. In order to get the content returned by

I just ran into this very problem myself. Yes, this is a bug in prototype. If you look in the code you will see that the relevent handlers and callbacks simply aren''t called with a synchronous request (onComplete is similarly not called). I submitted a patch <http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/4657> over at dev.rubyonrails.org which fixes this behavior. If you decide to check it

Hi, What''s the difference between attr_accessor and attr_accessible? Is attr_accessor to create a virtual variable/object and attr_accessible makes it accessible? Do you need attr_accessible if you already have attr_accessor?

I am pondering the possibility of encrypting/decrypting some fields in a SQLite backend on-the-fly. The point of the message is not security, I know that''s broken, but whether there''s a technique that provides on-the-fly save/read filters. Of course the solution would need to work transparently in joins, so user.posts.last.title would do the right thing if title

Hi, I''m working on a Rails 3.2.2 application which has JSON APIs and I use a CLI client for inserting some data. It works fine except for the Author model. When I try to create a new post (Post belongs_to :author and Author has_many :posts) I get the following error : <h1> ActiveModel::MassAssignmentSecurity::Error in PostsController#create </h1>

Hi, I was looking around a bit and couldn''t find any callbacks that executed before before_validation The current problem with using before_validation is that it won''t fire if I''m not using validations with #save(:validate => false) - which makes sense. Before_save won''t suffice because I want these callbacks to fire before validation on the occasions that
