I have an address model with country_id and province_id fields There is also a full_address method that returns an address that is in a format that the google maps api will be able to return a long-lat coords. Within the full_address method there is a call to obtain the province/state and country name. --------- def full_address ... full_address = [city, self.province.name,

I''m trying to use a shared method from an ActionMailer template. The method was originally in ApplicationHelper, but I''ve also tried it in the base controller (application.rb), with and without helper_method. In all cases, I get an error undefined method `wgg_replace_crlf'' for #<ActionView::Base:0x324b230> Here is the relevant block of code from the email

I may be totally wrong about what the fields_for method is supposed to do, but for some reason I thought using it scoped an object around an association. For example, I have a User class and when you''re creating a new user I want to use fields_for to add a BillingAddress to the user like so: <%- fields_for :billing_address do |billing_address_form| -%> <%= render :partial

I am relatively new to rails and I cannot figure out what is going on here. I am using the composed_of method in an ActiveRecord class to create two aggregate properties: shipping_address and billing_address. The object properties are getting populated from the form and validation is working - no problem. When I call order.save, though, everything is being saved except the address fields. I am not

I''ve been searching the web, wikis, and more, and I haven''t turned up examples of how to have multiple entities in a single-table inheritance related to anything. I have an addresses table, but multiple entities can have Addresses: both Person (which has 2 addresses) and Retailer. I''ve been told that I need to use single-table inheritance, and this was my attempt:

I''m trying to figure out the Rails way to model the following problem: I have 2 tables. One (let''s call it location) contains a single address. The other (let''s call it company) contains 3 address. I''m trying to figure out the best way to model this. I''ve created an address table, a set up the model as follows: class Address <

Hello generous coders, I''m having difficulty getting a couple of tests to pass. I have an address model which takes an address and with a callback on save and update passes the address to google''s geocoding service. The returned XML is parsed and saved to the address object: protected def geocode_address key = "mykey" url =

I''m wondering whether I''m wasting my time trying to verify that an addition I''ve made to legacy code is in fact setting a new attribute on a model. Substruct''s (http://dev.subimage.com/projects/substruct) OrderHelper contains this method: 1 def create_order_from_post 2 @use_separate_shipping_address = params[:use_separate_shipping_address]

I am trying to use the new partial_updates feature in rails 2.1, http://dev.rubyonrails.org/changeset/9157 but it is failing by trying to use all validations in the model instead of just the changed attributes. The model works as I can successfully .save(false) but if I try a regular .save I get an error saying that it could not save because of validations problems. I want to use this to get

I have the following models: class Order < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :billing_address belongs_to :shipping_address accepts_nested_attributes_for :billing_address accepts_nested_attributes_for :shipping_address, :reject_if => proc { |attributes| attributes[''has_shipping_address''] != ''1'' } def after_initialize self.build_billing_address

The Rails API doc (api.rubyonrails.org) says that :autosave is still a valid option for belongs_to in the latest version of Rails. However, a look at the activerecord/lib/active_record/associations.rb (line 1590) reveals that it is not in the @@valid_keys_for_belongs_to_association array. I also noticed that it''s not in the ActiveRecord API doc (ar.rubyonrails.org). Does anyone have any

Hi, How do I relate a table to another when one of the models uses single table inheritance? Will this even work? This is the specific problem I am having: There''s an "Address" model with "ShippingAddress" and "BillingAddress" as subclasses. It looks like this: class Address < ActiveRecord::Base End class ShippingAddress < Address has_one :order

I just updated to 2.1 and created a new, empty project. According to the docs I''ve seen, including: http://ryandaigle.com/articles/2008/4/1/what-s-new-in-edge-rails-partial-updates The file config/initializers/new_rails_defaults.rb has the default setting for partial updates and just needs to be edited: "Note: There''s currently a config/initializers/new_rails_defaults.rb

Hi, I have a simple program that tries to do something really basic. First, I have a company Model : ------------------------------------- class Company < ActiveRecord::Base has_one :billingAddress, :foreign_key=>"id", :class_name=>"Address" end Then I have the address Model : -------------------------------------- class Address< ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to

Hello When I try the command: rake db:migrate I get the following: rello@calimero:~/Sites/music_library/config$ rake db:migrate (in /home/rello/Sites/music_library) rake aborted! undefined method `partial_updates='' for ActiveRecord::Base:Class I googled with no results. Anybody can help me? Thankyou -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

In edge rails, serialized attributes are saved every time no matter they are changed or not: def update_with_dirty if partial_updates? # Serialized attributes should always be written in case they''ve been # changed in place. update_without_dirty(changed | (attributes.keys & self.class.serialized_attributes.keys)) else

Hi all, I am wondering if this could be a good idea to support the Object#extend method for an ActiveRecord class. Let''s say I have a customer (with a corresponding customer table in the DB). At one point, this customer becomes a "BillableCustomer" (with data in another table for billing information). Wouldn''t it be nice to write: customer.extend(Billable)

How do you guys test transactional updates with story runner? I have an action that needs to update four different models: Enrollment.transaction do @contact.update_addresses(params[:contact_address], params [:billing_address]) @enrollment.update_attributes!(params[:enrollment]) end The last update_attributes! will raise ActiveRecord::RecordNotValid if anything was

At the risk of being banned for posting the same question twice, I thought I''d try once more with a question for the title rather than a statement (on the basis that perhaps questions get answered and statements ignored ;-) ) ActiveRecord supports composed_of for value objects which is fantastic but one thing that it doesn''t seem to support (or at least I am unable to

Hi, I am pulling my hair out trying to work out how to put together what should be a simple app in rails. The app is to CV''s so I have a table of CV''s and each CV can have multiple skills. Skills are in a 2nd table below; CREATE TABLE cvs( id INT not null AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, first_name VARCHAR(30) not null, family_name VARCHAR(30) not null, email
