Is there any easy way of using something like current_page? method from ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper inside controller ? I have routing like: resources :addresses resources :mailing_addresses, :controller => ''addresses'' And I would like to do a check in my controller that would look like this: class AddressesController def index if current_page?(live_addresses_path)

Can someone give me a working example of current_page?(), because I''ve been trying to get this to work for a while now. I''ve been trying this: if current_page?(".*") @test = "asd" end but get a "undefined method `current_page?''" when I put it in my controller or application.rb. If I put it in my application_helper.rb, the page renders

Is there a way to ask the Route system what controller and action mapping will be used, given a hash containing :controller and :action? I am trying to generalize the case where there is a button bar (e.g. tabbed pages) having one image shown if you are presently visiting that page, and another shown if you are not presently visiting that page (e.g. an "active" and an

current_page?(:action => ''edit'', :controller => ''admin/products'') fails with an ActionView::TemplateError (No route matches ...) unless I''m in the edit action or I provide the :id. Route: /admin/products/:id/edit(.:format) {:action => ''edit'', :controller => ''admin/products''} I understand why this

With rspec 1.0.8 I have a spec in the directory: spec/units/controllers/application_controller_spec.rb require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../../spec_helper'' class DummyController < ApplicationController def index raise "Prevent index from rendering" end end describe ApplicationController, "Handling errors in production", :behaviour_type =>

Hi, I have some named routes defined e.g. map.public and wish to use link_to_unless_current() to disable link. However, as I''ve seen from forum discussions and the API doc, the issue lies with the fact that the named_route_url() method generated by a named route does not default to only_path = true like url_for. Therefore, the current_page? within link_to_unless_current() will not

Hi. I swear I found this in the group archives, but now I cannot find this in the group or elsewhere online! In a view I would like to get the current controller name and action that was used to get here. For example, I have a template that I''m using from two different controllers (and four different actions in each controller), such as :controller => "my_view", :action

can anyone tell me how to call link_to from within a model class? I''m trying to do something like the following: validates_uniqueness_of :email, :message => "address has already been taken.

Hey all, I''m seeing a strange behavior in my spec that I can''t account for. I''ve got a route that looks like this: map.writing \ ''/writing'', :controller => ''abstracts'', :action => ''index'', :index => { :select => ''all'' } and I have template code that looks like this: <br

Hi Everyone I am a new user of Ruby and Rails, and would like some help with the following problem. I have created a navbar with a styled unordered list and I would like to apply class="current" to the tab for the current page. Currently I am using a large, cumbersome and ugly if..then block, rendering the class="current" into the html and link_tos with current_page?. I am

I''m already successfully testing before_filters in application_controller courtesy of this blog post: http://www.movesonrails.com/articles/2008/01/23/spec-ing-your-application-controller However, i can;''t work out how to test the sort of method that is added to application_controller so that all controllers can use it. It must be something simple that i''m doing

All, I have some validation that I''m doing in a model. As part of the error message, I would like to provide an HTML link. What is the best approach to handling this? APPROACH 1: One way is to include ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper include ActionView::Helpers::TagHelper in my model so that I can use link_to to generate my link (obv. I could hard code HTML as well). But anyway that

So I have a describe which is a subclass of RailsExampleGroup. I inserted some data into my database, and reconnect! my connection. Before reconnect, finding the data I just created is fine.

So I''ve used the helper test plugin, and also tried some things from Rails Recipes, and basically neither seems to work for cases where a helper does anything related to link_to/url_for, and this includes calling named_routes. This is obviously an issue, as a common use for helpers is to refactoring something like this: <%= link_to "text that changes slightly", :id => id

I attached a rails helper implementation of the fb_table described here: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Facebook_Styles I included testing and comments. I hope you find it useful.
