similar to: Specifying a decimal field precision/scale with scaffold requires 2 steps?

Hi All, Inside my app\views\expenses\new.html.erb file, I had the code: <% form_for(@expense) do |f| %> [snip] <p> <%= f.label :vendor %><br /> <%= f.text_field :vendor %> <br /> <div id="vendor_droplist> <%= select_tag "test", options_for_select(@current_vendors.collect { |v| v.nickname }), {:multiple

I''ve got two entities created by scaffolding: Expense & Vendor In Expense#new there''s a form with a Vendors-drop-down and a NewVendor- button. The latter button brings up Vendor#new. The Create button in Vendor#new brings up Vendor#show with Edit & Back links. I want to append a third link conditionally to Vendor#show: if the Expense#new form led to the Vendor#show

Hi, Then RSpec 1.4 recommends, in the webpage http://rspec.info/documentation/expectations.html, referencing the subject items. I''m running ruby 1.8.6 (2007-09-24 patchlevel 111) [i386-mswin32] over WinXP-Pro/SP2. I believe I installed RSpec with a Ruby gem. At least, I think that''s confirmed because I have a lot of stuff in the directory K:\_Utilities

Hi, I''ve got a public\images\DownArrow.jpg and app\views\expenses\new.html.erb that want to present this image in the following context: <p> <%= f.label :vendor %><br /> <%= f.text_field :vendor %> <%= f.image "DownArrow.jpg" %> <br> <%= select_tag "test", options_for_select(@current_vendors.collect {

Hi, I''ve got a Rails app working that includes two two classes, etc.: Expense & Vendor. I eventually learned that the mental concept I had of their relationship should be express in Rails as: class Expense < ActiveRecord::Base; belongs_to :vendor; end class Vendor < ActiveRecord::Base; has_many :expenses; end

Hi All, I just created a new CRUD "expense" (using Rails 2.3.5 scaffold) which included "amount:decimal". When I: 1. populated the amount field of a new expense with 5 characters: 12.50 and 2. saved the new record I got a display of the new record that showed Amount to be merely "12". I clicked Update and put my cursor over the data field for Amount and got a

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew if it is (or ever will be ) possible at all to specify things like precision and scale at generate scaffold time, and if so how. Things like price:numeric(8,2) (obviously) just break the script.

Hi All, "We''re sorry, but something went wrong." is the message I got when I started up an RoR app in the environment: Rails 2.3.5 Ruby 1.8.6 WinXP-Pro/SP3 Firefox 3.6 MySQL 5.0.37-community-nt Mongrel The app under development was working fine until I (stupidly) thought I needed to upgrade MySQL to 5.1.44. I took the precaution of MySQL-dumping the development db before

This seems pretty brain dead: add_column :types, :notify_on_create, :boolean, {:default=>true, :null=>false} $ rake migrate Error: ERROR: column "notify_on_create" contains null values : ALTER TABLE types ALTER notify_on_create SET NOT NULL Why doesn''t Rails set the new column to true, as it''s supposed to default to? I tried :default=>1 as well (same

Hi all, I''m working on a financial app, and have set up some columns in my tables as decimals with precision => 8 and scale => 2. My migration looks like: change_column :lineitems, :price, :decimal, :precision => 8, :scale => 2 change_column :payments, :amount, :decimal, :precision => 8, :scale => 2 I''ve run the migration and restarted the server.

Hi, This is such a trivial programming issue, but I can''t find a way to transform, say ''abc'' to ''a-b-c'' without using pattern matching. Any ideas?

Hi I''ve created a migration called make_customer_type_id_not_null_for_customers. The migration .rb file looks like this: class MakeCustomerTypeIdNotNullForCustomers < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up change_column(:customers, :customer_type_id, :integer, { :null => false }) end def self.down change_column(:customers, :customer_type_id, :integer, { :null =>

Howdy Y''all, I was thrilled to recently discover migrations, as that framework addresses a common problem in an elegant way. I have, however, gotten tripped up a bit as I''ve worked with them. The first problem I encountered was that, though I was using a BigInt data type in a field in my dev database, my unit tests were failing because when I copied the schema from the dev

Hello, Currently if you have a string column that have only number values (think a year column using string by mistake) and you want to change to integer, you can''t. If you apply this monkey-patch will be possible: https://gist.github.com/1393441 Note: if some value can''t be casted by postgresql (if have a letter for example), the migration will fail as expected. I think

Hi All, I’ve got a few versions or Rails installed and I''d like to run an App I’m developing with various versions of Rails. I heard of two ways to switch the version of Rails that an app uses: 1. Use GitHub as described by http://kylecordes.com/2008/04/30/git-windows-go/ . But that requires using Bash in a Command Window and more steps than I want to go through. 2. Alter

Rails3.1.3 I have db type, startp:integer I need to change it to float. More specifically, 1.2, 45.1, 143.8 ... I have two questions: 1. Is removing and adding the field through migration the only way? in other words, is there a single command to change the type? 2. Is there anyway to limit the decimal place to only one? 56.3, 34.2... are acceptable, but 23.112, 77.34, ... are

All, It looks like rake db:schema:dump does not dump primary keys. I have some legacy table that don''t follow the convention ie pk = id and none of the primary keys for these tables are getting dumped... Seems strange as this should be readily available from the db. I am using MySQL. Is anybody else seeing that ? Incidentally how does one specify a primary key using
