similar to: acts_as_state_machine: SecurityError calling insecure method

Hi all, I''m running into a very strange but incredibly annoying problem that I just can''t seem to solve. The exception is occurring from a seemingly innocuous line in my code, a simple ''logger.warn("some debug information")''. The backtrace follows: SecurityError (Insecure: can''t modify array)

Hello, I''m not sure if this is where to post this, but i cannot find much information/support for acts_as_state_machine. I have a Friendship model which implements acts_as_state_machine. I have an :initial state of :pending, but i would like to create a Friendship model and save it directly with :accepted status. I have tried Friendship.create(:state => "accepted") and

Hi all: Below is s a dump from script/console in development env. Am I not supposed to be able to find the record later and use the state machine functionality, or have I missed something? Thanks Forrest ---------------------------- >> ts2 = TalkSession.create( :person_id => 2, :pattern_id => 2) => #<TalkSession:0x35811f0 @attributes={"pattern_id"=>2,

While using acts_as_state_machine, I noticed it doesn''t error when invalid state transition is used. No false return, no exception. By invalid state transition, I mean utilizing an event that does not define the current state as a ''from'' state. Does anyone find this lacking? I would like to be able to catch invalid state transition (such as attempting to fulfill a

Hello! Sometime ago I ran across a webpage where someone had identified the full callback sequence for an object lifecycle including AASM with it''s :enter and :exit and whatnot callbacks. Unfortunately, I can''t find it and searches don''t seem to help. Does anyone have a reference to a page that shows the callback sequence with Acts As State Machine (the gem)? I think

I have a number of fixtures in my test suite. For example, with acts_as_authenticated and acts_as_state_machine, I created a number of users in different account states for use in functional testing. (Suspended users can not log in, etc) Is it a good idea to run fixtures through tests to ensure that they conform to their ideals? EG: assert users(:suspended_user).suspended? If so, where should

Hello all, This is an interesting problem I have been working on. What I have is a little multiuser project request tracking application. What happens is that I log in and create projects and assign people to the projects. Each project has steps associated with it, and the steps need to be done in a certain order. Now, I have to request that the assigned person perform each of the steps, and

I''m adding some code to a project using restful_authentication and acts_as_statemachine In the create method for a user there is the following code generated by the restful_authentication template @user.regster! if user.valid? And this will save and the user record if it is valid. I understand that the statemachine will then change the state from passive to pending. It will guard

Hello, I''m currently developing an application which contains a Movie object. I was wondering what the best way to store a limited list such as mpaa_rating would be? The list is not likely to expand often, so i was wondering if it was still best to store this list in a table? Or if there was something else like acts_as_state_machine for maintaining a simple list like this. thanks!

Seems like act_as_state_machine plugin is not accessible from http://lunchroom.lunchboxsoftware.com/articles/2006/01/21/acts-as-state-machine as this site is down and script/plugin discover is broken as it fails when trying to add plugin repositories giving the message as below; Add http://svn.northpub.com/plugins/?

I''ve been reading about ActiveRecord::Callbacks and they''re really cool. But I have a complex need I''m not sure they answer. Let''s say we have a User model. User has a #status attribute, which can be either "active", "closed" or "blocked". I want to set a callback to perform an action if an "active" User has been

I am using the acts_as_state_machine plugin to control state of an object in my app, however when testing this I need to be able to stub out the guard conditions so that state will change when I fire off an event without depending on other models. Guard conditions simply return true or false so I have an instance method: def encoded? <check state of other objects> return true

Greetings all. I''m looking over a ''greenfield'' pasture, and enjoying the TDD(BDD) process of creation. I''m currently rspec''ing a finite state machine (acts_as_state_machine). As such, I need to persist the model through ''specifies'' within the context - from top to bottom. I have bumped into a couple of probs: 1. context_setup

I''m having some trouble with using brb for polling for work. Basically, what I want to do is update the state of a record and have brb notice and start a process. I do not want to call ask_work for each process because there may be several places where the object''s state is changed, and I only want to process once. Plus, I can schedule things better this way. My first thought

Hello, does anyone know if there is a "best practice" how to implement wizard pages in RoR? I want to have multiple pages for entity editing and creation. Is there any rails plugin available? I think it would be nice to have a howto in the rails wiki or to have built-in wizard support in RoR. What do you think? Any suggestions how to implement this elegant? -- Oliver Paulus OpenPGP

I recently switched over to v1.0, and things are rolling along pretty well. However, one thing that has always been a little confusing to me is knowing when to use thread_pool. Since most of my bgrb workers are called from my web app to process rather than being scheduled, I''m using the thread_pool for every call. Unfortunately, that means that I have to split up workers by how many

Hi, I am using backgroundrb to process audio files from a rails controller. Currently a new worker gets created every time the method is called on the worker, using this code: @job_key = MiddleMan.new_worker(:worker => :audio_file_worker, :job_key => Time.now.to_i) MiddleMan.worker(:audio_file_worker, @job_key).make_new_audio_file(params[:release_id]) I need to create the new

Hello! I was wondering, sometimes I raise an exception in my Rails apps, e.g.: raise SecurityError unless @post.user == logged_in_user Now: is there any way to catch that SecurityError exception somewhere and render a custom template? E.g., I want to render ''app/views/content/security_error.rhtml'' Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks a bunch, Rob

Folks I am new so I apologize if I come off as a totaly tool. I am finding Rails to be an amazing framework to use and having fun with it. I have run into a frustrating snag however with PLUGINS. I have a plugin installed in: /myapp/vendor/plugins/ When I run: ruby script/server in /myapp/ my WEBrick starts normally and I can access IP:3000. I get the default rails index page. How do I

Is there any project or solution for an easy integration of a WFE / WfMS into rails? I''m quite new to this topic, but I probably need a small subset of workflow patterns (or whatever the correct term is) only. Any pointers are welcome. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
