Hi, first of all I will apologize in advance for my presumably noobish question, but I''m only starting to learn Rails and am a little confused with all the changes in 2.0.1. There are as good as no tutorials out yet and the 2 or 3 screencasts I''ve seen deal with the creation of both the app and the database. Now my problem is that I already have a database with a fair amount of

I just ran across a weird glitch (IMHO) in find_or_create. The arguments passed to it are *not* added to the conditions for the ''first'' part. This is odd, given that it''s intended to replace find_or_create_by_* methods, which *did* use the specified values as conditions. I''m unsure on whether this behavior is entirely undesirable, but it''s definitely

Since there are so many efforts at the moment to port restful_authentication I figured I''d put a repo up so that it can be a collaborative effort. You can pick up a copy of the repo at git clone http://snatcht.com/git/merbful_authentication.git at the moment the app is in a branch. Not in the master. get the branch by git checkout -b remote/initial origin/inital_repo At the moment

Hi, I''m trying to use rails to build a model from a database view. I get this output C:\dev\v6\project>ruby script/generate scaffold Assignment ... error Before updating scaffolding from new DB schema, try creating a tab le for your model (Assignment) Is this not possible in Rails?

Hello, i''m new in ruby rails framework. I have the following problem. I try to create a scaffold for a certain model of my db, but since ruby rails doesn''t assume the table name corectly (its incidents_reported ) i get errors ....

I''m having a spot of bother creating a ''has_many'' relationship between two legacy database tables. The relationship is ''company'' table has many linked records in the ''contact'' table.

How do I get scaffold to generate code for a table whos name is not plural of the modelname I give to it.

There''s been some discussion on the IRC channel about getting a site for Merb going. Since the culture around the project is pretty casual, I figured I''d just throw a few ideas together, see what you guys think. So, firstly here are three example pages, just to show off the general look and feel. http://mr-eel.com/tmp/merb/01_frontpage.gif

I''ve generated the standard scaffolding half a dozen times on play databases on my own machine, but now I''m trying it for real against the team''s development database (postgres) and I see to have ended up in some sort of read-only mode. "list" will show my existing records and "show" will drill down, as expected, but "New" or

Hi all, I''m using Rails/Mysql as development platform. the production server is under Rails/Oracle.

I''ve upgraded to 0.11 this morning specifically to test out the pagination stuff. When that didn''t work (didn''t recognise the command) I deleted my project and recreated from scratch. So in short rails projectname cd projectname edit config/database.yml (my database is postgres by the way) ruby scripts/generate model Recordtype ruby

Just wanted to get the opinion from merb users on active record alternatives that you are either using or watching. I''ve been reading a bit about sequel and data mapper. Both look pretty nice. Anyone actively using those yet? Any others? If anyone cares to provide their thoughts, I''d love to hear them. BTW - is this too off-topic for this list? If so, just let me know and

Hi guys, I have a situation here. I have my project set to no pluralization due to legacy tables in environment.rb. Now, I have some new tables which I''m starting to pluralize.

Hi, I''m a complete newbie to this, I''m afraid. Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere, but I''ve had a look, and can''t find the answers I''m looking for, especially for using Rails 2.0. We have an existing database which we would need to connect Rails to, and the database structure is not what Rails would seem to expect. Firstly, tables are not

Sorry about the non-specific subject. Here''s what I''m trying to do. I have a method: DataMapper::Database.setup That I want to create an expectation on. I wrote: DataMapper::Database.should_receive(:setup).once.and_return (connection_hash) The call to setup is invoked in the "Object" namespace. I.e., it is setup code, and not in any method or class. I can see

Hi there, I''m fairly new to RSpec, and DataMapper and I''m trying to write a controller spec for an index action that will include DM query chaining.
