Good afternoon. I have two questions: First question: Can be defined at the time that I''m generating the scaffold the size of a string? For example name:string (50)? Second question: I wonder how to proceed correctly to include new fields starting at a CRUD generated by scaffold. Example: First step (I use): script/generate scaffold User name:string login:string Second step (I add

One of the criticism I have heard about rails is that the documentation is bad. I must admit I have a hard time trying to follow it and I wonder if anyone can shed some light on it for me.

Hello all, I am a rails nuby and I am evaluating using Rails for a new web application.

No matter what I try I''ve been unable to work how to get this to work with the cool ActiveRecord helpers. I''m not sure if it''s possible, Josh Susser''s blog suggests it is, but damned if I can work it out... I have: Container which can contain one or more Element. An Element is a polymorph of either a Container or a Chunk. An Element can exist in one or more

Hi, first of all I will apologize in advance for my presumably noobish question, but I''m only starting to learn Rails and am a little confused with all the changes in 2.0.1. There are as good as no tutorials out yet and the 2 or 3 screencasts I''ve seen deal with the creation of both the app and the database. Now my problem is that I already have a database with a fair amount of

Hi all, I''m new to rails after having used perl for most of these things, and am trying to get my head around the generate script for a project playing around with. If I do: ./scripts/generate controller Device I get app/controllers/device_controller.rb where I can then add: scaffold :device However, if I want to actually generate the scaffolding so I can make some changes:

I am getting an error when I try to run the code for the depot application (page 67 in the Agile Web Development on Rails book, 2nd edition).

I used "rails depot --database=mysql" because I have not

I went through a tutorial at http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/01/20/rails.html?page=1 to get started with RoR.

I''ve got a mysql database that is properly configured, and a table called ''quotes'' with a column called
