similar to: ActionController <-> ActiveView code access ambiguity

Hello all. Is there a way to stop users from being able to access a controllers methods without affecting the ability of other controllers to use them? i.e FooController def secret #Stuff end end BarController def index redirect_to :controller => ''foo'', action => ''secret'', :id => ''007'' end end But directly

I track svn/trunk of Rails using svn:externals Some change to Rails committed in the last 1-2 days broke my subclass of ApplicationController The example, below, works with Rails 1.0, but in today''s svn, it dies with the following error: "superclass mismatch for class FooController" class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base end class FooController <

All, I have a left navigation partial that I want to dynamically generate CSS classes for based on the current controller action. In my ERb template, I have <DIV class="<%= get_menu_display_style(''login_form'') %>"> In application.rb, I have the method get_menu_display_style defined as: public def get_menu_display_style(action_requested)

Can I set an application wide instance variable that is available for all actions...and their views? eg. class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base @current_user = User.find(session[:user_id]) end and everywhere I can call @current_user.id and I can get that object? Even down in the views? I could not get this to work... Thanks in advance, Jeff -------------- next part

Can you set a global before_filter action in application.rb? So, for example, you could control authentication for all of the controllers in an app.? Obviously, you would need a way to reference actions by controller within this "global before-filter". Thanks, Wes -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi guys, I would expect an ActionController-derived class to reload _completely_ in development mode. class FooController < ApplicationController include FancyStuffSupport def index # bla end # more actions here end However, the ''FancyStuffSupport'' is not reloaded, only the ''FooController'' itself. Can this behaviour be changed? I feel back

Hi, I''m trying create a user system for a future project but I have a problem when I want give to my users the "Welcome". This is my code: #application_controller class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base protect_from_forgery helper_method :current_user private def current_user_session return @current_user_session if defined?(@current_user_session)

Suppose in controller: class ArticlesController < ApplicationController def search ... render :update do|page| page.replace_html ''panel_tab_searchresults'',:partial => ''article'', :object =>@articles end end And i want to add ajax styled Paginator to the view,i have got the method and i can work well directly used in view:

All, Is it possible for a view to call back to a controller method? If so, what is the syntax? === details I have a list view that I want to filter out inactive rows based on several table fields being zero, old, etc. It would seem I should create a "filtered" method in the controller (which I have done). Then invoke if from the view like: for row in @rows continue if row.filtered

I''m setting up authentication with Authlogic and I get this error. I''ve done some searching but with no success. I tried setting the current_user method in Application_controller to protected and not private, on the recommendation in Stack Overflow. Error in browser----------------- NoMethodError in User sessionsController#new undefined method `require_no_user'' for

The ruby code in this isn''t evaluated... flash[:notice] = "Your last recorded entry was <%= @in_out.time_in %> <br />You are currently marked as ''In'', you probably want to check ''Out''" Is there a way? Craig

I want a method to be accessible from everywhere in my app (it''s a Gaussian RNG) - I''ve already put them as protected methods in application.rb but that would only allow them to be accessed from controllers. I have a method in a model that needs access to this too, and I''d prefer not performing the calculations outside the model. Copying the method definition into the

OK ... so I''m not supposed to use it but ... Why doesn''t rescue_from ActionController::RoutingError work witht he code from http://www.rubyplus.org/episodes/20-Extended-RESTful-Authentication-Rails-2-App.html class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base helper :all # include all helpers, all the time # See ActionController::RequestForgeryProtection for details

Hello, Rather new to RoR, so I''m not sure about the terminology and such :-/ . My question is: how could I know the model which is associated to a controller? For example: - controller class is TestController, which is a subclass of ApplicationController - associated model class is Test How could I write some code in a method of ApplicationController to dermine the current

In rhtml, you have access to controller. I am trying to set an instance var in my controller, then retrieve it in my form display. I know I could do this through one of the hashes I have access to, but I''m trying to understand why I can''t do it this way. No matter what, when I try to output from my rhtml either <%= controller.whynot || ''Unknown'' %> or

Out of curiosity, I''ve seen the following fail: module Admin describe MyController ... end end But this works fine: describe Admin::MyController .. end Why? Scott

I have a controller test here: http://gist.github.com/275616, which works fine when account is an independent model, however I want: an account to be a property of user, ( and created and associated when a user is) when the user goes to /account/edit it should on edit the account of the logged in user - I can make rails do this, but I''m utterly baffled how I should alter this test to

I have a lot of controllers with virtually identical functionality for most actions. I''ve been using shared behaviours to DRY things up a bit, but I still have to create separate behaviours for each context before I can use the shared behaviours what I have now is a generic file which contains all the behaviours and examples common to all the controllers, and that file gets loaded from

Hi, In my test case below, it seems that ''initialize'' is called everytime ''hello'' is called. Is this by design, a bug, or my pilot error? class FooController < ApplicationController def initialize print "\n initialize \n" end def hello print "\n hello \n" end end I

Hi, I''m wondering if there is a simple solution to call a method once per page request. I tried to place my call in a before_filter in ApplicationController but it''d called a second time if I use render_component from a view. Seems to me that a hook should be added in Dispatcher#prepare_application. Context: working on i18n, I''m trying to check lang either from uri,
