Hi, I think the columns and table in migration should be able to have an optional "display_name" set manually. Something like: create_table :people, {display_name => "Personne"} do |t| t.column :first_name :string, :display_name => "Prénom". end Let me explain my point of view: Rails is a framework made to write programs in English. You see it when you

I have a bad feeling asking this but I did not manage to find an answer myself :/ @comments = Comment.all @comments is an array. I can for example access comment.created_at directly, or I could do: <% @comments.each do |comment| %> <%= debug comment["created_at"] %> <% end %> I expected comment to be a hash, but comment.keys or comment.values fail, as well as an

Hello There, As a new comer to RoR, I started to follow the article http://developer.apple.com/tools/developonrailsleopard.html. In short you create to entities and one one-to-many relation linking them. Everything was good until the establishment of the relation. I am unable to go any further than "Linking Models Together" : I can create the "vendors" mentionned in the

Hey.. So I have a model that has a lot of number fields. Each of these go through a process when read in and read out to add/remove commas (between every three numbers) to make them more readable. The getter I currently have is like this: def sale_price Listing.insert_commas(read_attribte (:sale_price)) end and the setter is: def sale_price=(price) write_attribute(:saleprice,

Hi, I have a database table and associated ActiveRecord model. I was trying to store (temporarily) an array in one of the attribute elements - not to save it, but just so that I can keep some form data in a sensible place. A stripped down version of the problem I''m having is: p = Property.new(:bedroom_count => ["2","3"]) puts p.inspect # ==> will correctly show

Hi all.... Admittedly I''m new to Rails and trying to find my way but I''m having an issue with uploading documents with attachment_fu. I have a form where I''m uploading multiple attachments (using AJAX to add file_filed_tags). That seems to work pretty well. The problem is I can''t seem to get the content_type to work as I would expect. For example, if I use

ActiveRecord supports composed_of for value objects which is fantastic but one thing that it doesn''t seem to support (or at least I am unable to find any documentation for) validation of the value objects. For example, given the following: class Message < ActiveRecord::Base composed_of :sender, :class_name => ''EmailAddress'' composed_of :recipient,

Hi, When we update a record via an update form, is there an easy way to find out the fields that have been changed. If the update is successful, i want to display: The following fields have been changed: field-name = new-value ... Thanks, Lantis. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I did some basic googling, but didn''t find an answer yet. I am sorry if this is a FAQ. In a manifest for creating an Apache config file, I define a hash like this: $aliases = { ''/foo/'' => ''/home/foo/www/'', ''/bar/'' => ''/home/bar/www/'', ''/baz/'' =>

Some of the data in names and string values were being unsafely printed, causing some types of XML processors to fail (e.g. Python's Expat).

I need to do some precise math, going to 12-14 decimal places, so I''m using BigDecimal. How can I store this in a db? I''m using postgresql 8.1.0, if that matters at all. I found a plugin [1] but it gives me the error "You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! The error occurred while evaluating nil.each_pair," with no line number. The plugin itself

Hello people, I''d like to detect whether an attribute of a model has vaildates_presence_of applied to it so I can automatically apply a mandatory (*) to the field...it doesn''t look easy...any ideas? Cheers, -- Dan Webb http://www.danwebb.net

I''m building an app that needs i18n support across the entire database (i.e. localized attributes). In order to do this I''ve created a special HABTM join table that can be associated with _any_ other table: create table language_strings ( for_table varchar(255) not null, foreign_id int not null, language_id varchar(5) not null, attr_name varchar(255) not null, value text

I have a couple forms that I''d like to be able to validate and automatically populate, but it shouldn''t be based on AR. In fact I often have a bunch of small forms that I can''t really justify writing a whole new model class for anyway. I''d like to validate the form input, and then use rails helpers to automatically populate the form if validations fail.

It is passed into the partial under the name "parent_xml". Why can''t I use :locals => {.... :xml => xml ....} in my call to render the partial? It seems like if I do use :xml => xml, it
