In this case the furnii table. this is my original query @furnii_from_furnii = Furni.find :all, :include =>[:raider, {:imageasset => :skin}], :conditions =>

Hey guys, Trying to figure out how to do something like the following: class Child belongs_to :parent has_field :some_field, :through => :parent end class Parent has_one :child attr_accessible :some_field end child.some_field #=> parent.some_field child.some_field = value #=> sets parent.some_field = value I can of course accomplish this by adding custom accessors

I can''t get my view to display the most recent parameters from an associated object in a view... here is a birds-eye of my app: I have two models, Ferms and Kinetics.

Hi all - I've been working on a lite ORM and database abstraction package for R. Formatting complex queries by hand has always been an error-prone hassle, so I've tried to do away with that as much as possible, instead, using R objects to represent elements of a database system (statements, clauses, operators, functions, fields, tables, etc.). R5 classes have made the development of this

I''m not using ferret because the search I need is not that complicated. I created a basic active record search. I''m using some code from the pragmaticprogrammer book. This is the issue: I can get the single keyword to work fine when entered into the search box, but when you put to keywords separated by a space the search returns no results. It makes sense since the function

I''m having a bit of difficulty when testing my models, I''ve read a few times the testing chapter in Agile web development with rails and at http://manuals.rubyonrails.com/read/chapter/27 but i''m still unsure of what I should be testing. Firstly I''d like to be able to test things like my email validation using lines such as assert User.new(:email =>

Hello all. I have a problem using validates_inclusion_of. I need to switch off some validations during a migration period, is there a way? I tried to use if, with a static method of one of my models, but the behaviour is something strange It seems that the static method should be in a string to be evaluated. And the order of the elements in the if is counting... :if => (:some_field

I''ve installed the gem "meta_where" (and it reported back: "Succeeded") but when I use the example in a search method of a controller: Person.where(:some_field.matches => ''%something%'') there is an error that it doesn''t know the method ''matches'', so what still needs to be done to properly activate the gem and make its

Hello R-Users, I have some data sets which change on a daily bases. So far I have imported these sets into R, done all my evaluations resulting in a couple of plots, charts and tables of numbers which I copy&pasted via clipboard into Powerpoint. The procedure is always the same and I wonder, whether there is no easier way for doing so. Is there some type of "report generator"

Hi, all, I need to DRY up some code in a few models. My first inclination, having come from the Java world, was to go with an abstract class. After a bit of reading, I then decided to follow the mixin route instead. Now I''m running into trouble, most likely from a few basic misunderstandings.

Hi all, I can''t figure out why my radio_buttons won''t reflect the values stored in my database. I read through some of the previous posts -- is it true that they don''t work with integers?
