Hi all, I''ve just started working on another RoR project after a couple of months away. I''m having trouble with named routes, specifically root_* In previous apps I''ve used root_path and root_url without any problems, but in this project (2.3.2 - the same as my last project where I used it) it comes up undefined. I''ve double and triple checking my routes.rb,

Given the following.. Foo has_many :bars Bar has_many ::widgets Widget has_many :gadgets Gadget has_many :parts All of the following are now possible... @foo.bars @bar.widgets @part.gadget.widget.bar.foo However, I can''t just do the opposite of that last one... @foo.bars.widgets.gadgets.parts and get a full list of every Part associated with @foo. I know there''s several

Hi, i try to understand how plugins work in detail. Often you see stuff like: class Post < ActiveRecord::Base   acts_as_commentable end I wonder what''s happen all there. What kind of language-feature is behind this call "acts_as_commentable" ? In my opinion you need some kind of extend or include to extend the functionality of a model. And exactly this is which i found

I''m pleased to announce the official release of "GateKeeper". GateKeeper is a Rails plugin that provides easy to use methods to declare access permissions to instances of ActiveRecord classes at the model level. Permissions may be based on either a user''s roles (such as Admin, Moderator, etc) or on associations with other models. In most simple and straight forward

Is there any way to set the confirmation dialog title when using link_to_remote with the :confirm option? In Firefox the dialog works fine but the title is: "The page at http://localhost:3000 says:" It would be nice if I could set that to something meaningful. Any information is appreciated, Rick -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello all, I''m using Login Generator ACL System<http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/LoginGeneratorACLSystem> I want to know if there is a way to set the flash(:notice) before the before_filter is processed so that the flash() is available on my login page ? IE: "regular" user changes URL to an "admin" page, then I want the login''s flash to say

Filter chaining appears to behave in differently than Rails 1.2.x. It seems that I''m getting a lot of errors along the lines of: ActionController::ActionControllerError: filter #<ActionController::Filters::ClassMethods::BeforeFilterProxy:0x322f468 @filter=#<ActionController::Filters::ClassMethods::SymbolFilter: 0x322f4b8 @filter=:login_required>> was in the wrong place!

I use a call to the sanitize method every time I render some user input, but it would be much nicer if I could clean it up once before putting it into the database and avoid having to call the (relatively expensive) sanitize every time I render a page. My first thought was to just add something like: def message=(x) self[:message]=sanitize(x) end However, the sanitize helper cannot be called

Starting to feel more confident and code is DRYing up nicely, but I''ve hit a brick wall here and hoping someone can help me. I''ve got a module, TrustRanking, which extends a number of model''s instance methods, and I want to extend their class methods too, but I can seem to work out how to do it. Simply including the module from the class works a treat for the

Hi I am trying to create a plug-in to fix the error in the rails core produced by the multiple delete on a HABTM relationship. I have confirmed that my plug-in is being included into the base during runtime however the code does not seem to be overridding the base class. module ActiveRecord module Associations module ClassMethods def has_and_belongs_to_many(association_id, options =

Hey everyone, I''m interested in extending ActiveRecord::Base. I have a special "easier" find function that I want to include in all classes. How can I include this in all classes? Can I just create a model object that does something like this: class ExtendedAR < ActiveRecord::Base def self.special_find ... end end and then all my other classes

When trying to understand a piece of code from the Ruby-On-Rails framework, I found that I''m still lacking knowledge about scope issues in Ruby. Here is a stripped down version of the code I''m trying to understand (in case you happen to use Rails: This is from file scaffolding.rb): module ActionController module Scaffolding .. module ClassMethods def

Why is that in so many plugins I see people using (including acts_as_taggable by DHH): # init.rb ActiveRecord::Base.send(:include, ActiveRecord::Acts::SomeModule) # lib/some_module.rb module ActiveRecord module Acts module SomeModule def self.included(base) base.extend(ClassMethods) end module ClassMethods def acts_as_something # code

I am using the following code (inspired by one of the books) to check if the user''s session should have timed out. # Check to see if the user has been inactive for longer than the # expiry period. If they have, reset the session. def check_timeout if session[:expires_at] != nil @time_left = (session[:expires_at] - Time.now).to_i unless @time_left > 0

OK so I''ve been trying to follow the tutorial here: http://rails.homelinux.org/ When I simply do "scaffold: category" in the controller.rb, everything works fine. BUT after I generate the controllers and other files using scaffold AS A SCRIPT (script/generate scaffold categories), DESTROY (or DELETE) does not work for any record in a table. This is the error I got: Processing

I created a controller called reports, for which I didn''t have any model or tables. I wanted to use a menu/layout structure similar to all my other models/controllers and added a layout named reports which then gives me the menu/layout structure but is also now part of all my reports. That isn''t gonna work so I renamed reports.rhtml to reports_forms.rhtml (still inside my

I''ve created an access control module that I''m including in several different controllers. Everything works fine, but I want to allow each controller to override the default login page with something like this: set_login_pages :secure => ''my_login'' In my module, I''ve set up the set_login_pages method like this: def self.included(base)

Anyone got any idea of how to use built-in validation methods in a mixed-in module. What I''ve got at the moment is each class that needs ranking methods includes [the module] Ranking. Then the module Ranking has a bunch of instance methods and a submodule ClassMethods. The ClassMethods in this are mixed in to the class with self.included. So far so good. But I want the module to
