Can anyone supply me with a simple, succinct explanation of what the difference is between the "new" controller and the "create" controller that the scaffold generator produces?

Just monkey patched Sprockets in our Rails 3.2.9 app to override the Cache-Control header for html assets that we need to tweak more often in development, but that we don''t want to use digests/fingerprinting with: # Sprockets 2.x patch if Rails.env.development? module Sprockets module Server private alias_method :sprockets_headers, :headers def headers(env,

While it was a good move from Rails part to escape ERB <%= %> tags by default, it doesn''t seem to happen to Sprockets as well. The strange bit is that according to Sprockets documentation, it would be just a matter of naming your template as .jst.eco to enable Eco: https://github.com/sstephenson/sprockets#javascript-templating-with-ejs-and-eco Then, extracted from Eco

When I create a new engine in Rails 3.1 stable and then access the dummy app or the engine I get an error say that the app can''t find jquery. I''ve created the engine using rails plugin new coffee --mountable I''ve also created a basic controller in the engine and the dummy app. If I remove the javascript include tag, everything works.

Here are my scopes: default_scope :order => ''posted_on DESC'', :conditions => { :status => ''visible'' } named_scope :positive, :conditions => { :rating => ''positive'', :status => ''visible'' } named_scope :neutral, :conditions => { :rating => ''neutral'', :status =>

Hey guys, I''m a RoR-Beginner and I started learning it with the RoR-Tutorial. Actually I''m at this chapter (http://ruby.railstutorial.org/chapters/ static-pages#top) and try to install rspec.

Here's my situation. I have two receptionists that answer incoming lines. Each has a 7960G with 5 incoming lines each. I'm trying to set this up so each line on each phone doesn't utilize call waiting. My problem seems to be that ChanisAvail(Sip/cisco1&Sip/cisco2&Sip/cisco3&Sip/cisco4&Sip/cisco5) always returns cisco1. Here are the sip.conf entries: (mind you,

Hi all, we''re just in the process of upgrading to the new asset pipeline, but I''m having an annoying issue with Sprockets. It turns out that I can''t enable both *debug* and *digest* in development mode. When I do, I get a Errno::ENAMETOOLONG because the digest becomes the *entire* *content* of the file instead of a hex. I get this with both sass and javascript.

I recently upgraded to Rails 3, and this error has come up ubiquitously: DEPRECATION WARNING: Base.named_scope has been deprecated, please use Base.scope instead. Any ideas on how to get rid of it? Or should I just wait for something? There''s actually no place in my application where the code "Base.named_scope" exists, so I assume the problem is inherent in gems that

Just starting out with a beginner book on jquery and the very first thing I am trying fails (has to be me) Rails 3.1 - other jquery things working including a poor example of drag & drop that is my ultimate target here but just simply trying to get every alternating row in a table to have a different css class So I''m using... app/assets/javascripts/people.js.coffee and put in...

I have a model layer containing Movie, Person, Role, and RoleType, making it possible to express facts such as "Clint Easterbunny is director of the movie Gran Milano". The relevant model and associations look like this class Movie < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :roles, :include => :role_type, :dependent => :destroy has_many :participants, :through => :roles, :source

Hi all, Stuck at this problem for several days. Tried to use named_scope, scope_out, and plugin such as searchlogic, but no result. The problem is as follows: I have a pic table and tag table, and a join table called pic_tag (with only pic_id and tag_id) so that I can associate N pics to M tags. This is the tutorial way to set up a many- to-many association. I''m trying to implement a

hi guys, I need a recommendation for searching with regards to timestamp & foreign key attributes. Sounds a bit too much but here''s an example. Suppose we have a "blog" object. It has many attributes such as - title - content - status_id - created_at - updated_at There are also "status" objects which have the following statuses, "new",

Is it possible to specify that certain tables not be cleared on each example. I''ve inherited a project where a good amount of enumerated data is stored in the database (US States, statuses, about 15-20 tables worth. Over all, it''s a reasonable decision that leads to solid production code (acts_as_enumerated is good). This data is read-only and relatively static; any

Hi guys, I''m just beginning to use RSpec and I ran into the issue of testing a named_scope. I''m not actually trying to test its behavior, as it''s not my code, but I wanted to test at least that it''s defined. I tried doing this: describe Post, ".most_recent" do it "should be defined" do Post.method_defined?(:most_recent).should be_true

I am trying to build a shared-appointment system, where users can subscribe to appointments and be updated whenever changes are made to them. I have three objects in this system, appointments, users, and subscribers. Subscribers are a polymorphic object like so: class Subscriber < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :user belongs_to :subscribable, :polymorphic => true end The tricky part is

Hi there, I remember reading in the comments of a Rails blog something along these lines: "Since a Model is loaded only once in production development (at server start), certain time-dependent ''constants'' that you have placed in a method of a Model will always return the same value for those ''constants'', i.e. the value the ''constant'' had
