similar to: [ANN} log_buddy 0.0.2 released

LogBuddy is your friendly little log buddy at your side, helping you dev, debug, and test. It plays well with Rails and plain old Ruby projects. To use it, sudo gem install log_buddy, then require ''log_buddy'' and call LogBuddy.init. It will add two methods to object instance and class level: "d" and "logger". You probably only want to use these in non-prod

Hello, I''m a big bookworm, so I decided to round up all the upcoming Ruby books in the market in one big blog post. At my count, there are _sixteen_ books to be released (in print) for the upcoming year, with some available in pdf form right now. Here''s the list: http://www.robsanheim.com/2006/03/23/ruby-and-ruby-on-rails-book-roundup/ Hope its helpful for fellow book nerds

I''m struggling to get switchtower working, and from other posts about it I know it has something to do with ruby binding to open ssl. I''m just not sure what I should recompile/reinstall to get things to work. running: "rake remote_exec ACTION=setup" gives me ---> ...executing "mkdir -p -m 775 /usr/apps/hello-rails/releases /usr/apps/hello-rails/shared/system

Hi all Hope this isn''t too far off-topic on this list, as I think it would largely go ignored on the main rails list. I''m looking for the most pragmatic way to speed up our test suite. This is on an established project, and lets just say that we used way too many fixtures when we started =). For example: Finished in 128.870144 seconds. =============== 392 tests, 2106

Having a weird issue where I can migration to version 1, but then go no further, and cannot go back to 0 -- but only from the command line. If I open up script/console I can do migrations just fine - down to 0 or up to 2, via ActiveRecord::Migrator. So I know the migrations must be valid, and I can verify that tables are created or destroyed in the database. Does anyone have any idea why this

Would upgrading rails and all dependancies break the installation of the fcgi/mysql bindings?

I have a simple Yes/No selection list that I am using in a number of places. Thinking that I could DRY things out a bit, I added it to application_helper.rb ... YES_NO = [ [ "Yes", true ], [ "No", false ] ].freeze So I figured I would use it there instead of in each model.rb where needed. anyway, in webrick screen, I am continually seeing this...

Hi all, I use centos7 and don't want to use tmpwatch as well as crond. I have a question to use `systemd-tmpfiles-clean.service` with my custom configured file in `tmpfiles.d` to delete outdated files periodically in some log dir. I have a `tmpfiles.d` configured file in `/etc/tmpfiles.d` named `my_log.conf` in following contents. ``` #Type Path Mode UID GID Age Arg r

Hi all, I''m currently considering the use of Mocha to aid in writing my Rails unit/functional tests. I currently have a Rails model which mixes in a series of methods to allow it to talk to an external service. The code is roughly of this form: class Person < ActiveRecord::Base include SMSNotifier def send_notification(message) send_sms(number,message) #

I have a little helper that lets me add legacy fields to models where they have common prefixes, suffixes, or something else weird. Here is the method signature: def legacy_fields(options = {}, *attributes) ..... end options is a hash containing things like :prefix => "post_" - and attributes is a list of attribute names. This gets mixed into the class with extend, so I call

I was wondering if anyone had a quick an easy way to add color to the autotest output. I just want a nice green splash somewhere on success, and red on failure - I miss the Eclipse xUnit plugin''s easy feedback where I didn''t have to read log output. =) - rob -- http://www.robsanheim.com http://www.seekingalpha.com http://www.ajaxian.com

It looks like fastthread was rolled into 1.8.6: http://svn.ruby-lang.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/tags/v1_8_6/NEWS?revision=12055&view=markup Does that mean once we upgrade to 186 we can forget about rubygem version? - Rob

Hi All, I saw spurious mentions on a few blogs of a DVD being made available of RailsConf presentations. However none seemed to have a who/what/when/where attached to them, thus might just be pure speculation. Anyone know of an official source/effort being made for a DVD? Would be well keen for copy if one is to be made available.... Cheers Rowan --- http://raili.st/ -------------- next part

I find that a lot of times I want to ensure a method gets called exactly once, for example when testing caching or eager loading. What does the list think of adding this little humane method to Mocha::Expectation? def once times(1) self end which means this: def test_should_only_grab_post_once_from_the_cache Post.expects(:get_cache).with(google_vs_yahoo.id).times(1)

Evening, Alright folks, as Jeremy Kemper mentioned I''m working on a set of "triage" scripts for the Rails trac using RFuzz to go through all the tickets and clean them out. I''ve talked this over with the core guys, and they''re behind it. I''m calling this set of scripts "THE MAGGOT" thanks to hasmanyjosh. Basically THE MAGGOT (all caps)

Rails make it easy to start a new application. At the same time, import a new project into Subversion is not that simple -- there are quite few files that should be ignored. I used to manually remove added log files and tmp/cache, tmp/sessions, tmp/sockets files after the import and then go through the painful process of setting svn:ignore properties. There is an easier way -- simply
