similar to: wants to get all parents with no children, etc

i am making a category tree and i iterate over the category using my counter_cache however it would show a different number than what was actually being represetned in the tree. Here is an example cat.children = [cat2, cat3] puts cat.children.size 2 puts cat.children_count 2 cat4.parent_id = cat.id cat4.save puts cat.children.size

As far as I can tell, the counter_cache option on a belongs_to model doesn''t actually save anything in the database. For example, I have the following models: class Parent < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :children, :conditions => "deleted_at IS NULL" end class Child < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :parent, :counter_cache => true end With the following

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

Let''s say I have simple schema with two tables. The models are defined like the folllowing: class Parent < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :children end class Child < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :parent end Simple has_many relationship. Is there any way to order the results of a Parent.find_all by the number of children the parent has? I can sort with sorted_parents =

disclaimer: am in the midst of my first ruby/rails project I have a situation where I want several child records to be created when a new parent record is created. The following represents my first stab at coding it, am I on the right track? Here is the model: parents ---------- id name children ---------- id parent_id name class Parent < ActiveRecord::Base has_many: children end

What are the limitations on using: errors.add_to_base to display errors in views? I have tried for days to add errors from my object.rb and they never get displayed. class Keyword < ActiveRecord::Base validates_presence_of(:name, :message => "Name is required.") validates_uniqueness_of(:name, :message => "This name is already in use. Please try

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

I want to build an application that has the concept of administrative domains. What I mean by this is that administrators have access to different data, based on what domains they are a member of. The domain strucutre is hierarchical. Here is an example: - MLB - AL - East - Yankees - Red Sox ... + Central + West - NL + East + Central + West Now

I have a couple of resources, one nested in the other, such that my resource spec in routes.rb is: map.resources :parents, :has_many => :children This will generate a route for a new child that assumes that the parent has already been saved, something like: /parents/:parent_id/children/new But what if I want a route that handles the case where the parent resource is also new, and thus

Hi i am trying to figure out what is the best way to do this very basic thing: lets say i have two tables: one with parents and one with children. there is a one to many relation between them. I scaffolded the parents tabel and i can open each parent. Now i want to add a link to the ''show'' view which will create a new child record. In the model i defined the has_many and

My database is set up as Categories > Things associated by category_id and has_many and belongs_to. How would I go about listing all the categories and under each Category is it''s children? Is there an easy rails way to do this - preferably without using acts as tree? Any help is appreciated - thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

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 select list with a list of items. When a user selects an item, another select list should have its default selected item set to a specific item (the default associated with the first select list). This is in a form to create a new task. The first select list is a list of parent tasks. When one selects the parent task, the clients select list must default to the same client as its

Whenever I try to search on my dovecot test install, dovecot dies. It immediately spawns a new process, which the client tries to connect to, and send search commands to, causing that to die, and so forth. This loop means I have to kill either the server or the client. Running Dovecot 1.0.13 from/on Debian testing, rebuilt with vpopmail support and no other source changes. Vpopmail version is

Hi, I'm trying to write a histogram to a pdf pdf() plot<-hist(c, xlim=c( 0.69, 0.84), ylim=c(0,100)) when I try to open the pdf I can't open it, there is always some error . Is there something I should add to make it run under this operation system? I had problems upgrading to 2.3 (problem downloading packages) so I'm not sure an upgrade will work out with me. I just want a

I have a model "Childmodel" that belongs_to two other models "Parent1" and "Parent2". "Parent1" "has_many :childmodels, :order => :positionp1" and "Parent2" "has_many :childmodels, :order => :positionp2". i.e. The child is independently positioned within each of its parents. This works fine and gets me the useful

Ok, So, I''ve got two data tables associated through a foreign key. class Child < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :parent, :class => Parent, :foreign_key => "parent_id" # also has attr1, attr2 end class Parent < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :children, :class => Child, :foreign_key => "parent_id" end So, I''m trying to build the new/edit

For a project that I am working on I need to have a family tree. This means that instead of having one parent each item has at most two. As far as I know acts_as_tree only allows one parent_id. Any suggestions on how to make a "acts_as_family_tree" ? Thanks, Mark -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- I am Mark Daggett and I approve this message.

Hello there, I am working on an extremely unbalanced two class classification problems. I wanna use "classwt" with "down sampling" together. By checking the rfNews() in R, it looks that classwt is not working yet. Then I looked at the software from Salford. I did not find the down sampling option. I am wondering if you have any experience to deal with this problem. Do you

I'm sorry if the answer to my problem is buried in the archives. I have limited experience with R and I couldn't find a solution to my particular problem.
