similar to: has_many association with autosave issues

Hello, Have you guys noticed that conditional validation with validates_associated does not work well when you are creating a new record? Consider this gist: https://gist.github.com/aflag/4780225 The Lawyer class has validates_associated on address conditioned on whether the Lawyer data comes from a known source or not. So, if lawyer.source equals to some string, then lawyer.address must

I am looking for advice on an editor to use with R (windows) that has an autosave feature. I typically write scripts using the RGui (and tried TinnR yesterday) but I am having continuing problems with BSODs (non R related) and have in the past have had issues with R crashes and would really like a system that does not require me to remember to hit the save button on my script every 10 minutes so

I have the following associations. class Document < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :document_sections, :dependent => :destroy, :autosave => true has_many :document_items, :through => :document_sections end class DocumentSection < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :document has_many :document_items, :dependent => :destroy, :autosave => true end class DocumentItem <

Considering an object with several has_many :through => associations, what is the ''best'' way to handle validations? As an example: class Student < ActiveRecord::Base # some attrbutes like # :name # :grade # relationships has_many :students_assignment, :dependent => :destroy has_many :assignments, :through => :students_assignment has_many

I have two problems. I have a comment that has_many uploads. Before saving the comment, I want to be sure that the upload(s) has passed validation, but I also need to validate in other ways. For example, I do not want to save the comment if there is no comment or upload. Or, I do not want to save the comment if the image has been uploaded previously (comparing md5s with past upload md5s

https://github.com/NV/chrome-devtools-autosave doesn’t play nice with Asset Pipeline. https://github.com/NV/chrome-devtools-autosave/issues/27 The culprit of the problem is in the asset’s URLs. I cannot decipher a file path by its URL. For instance, /assets/main.css?body=1 could be either app/assets/stylesheets/main.css, lib/assets/stylesheets/main.css or vendor/stylesheets/main.css. To fix

The Rails API doc (api.rubyonrails.org) says that :autosave is still a valid option for belongs_to in the latest version of Rails. However, a look at the activerecord/lib/active_record/associations.rb (line 1590) reveals that it is not in the @@valid_keys_for_belongs_to_association array. I also noticed that it''s not in the ActiveRecord API doc (ar.rubyonrails.org). Does anyone have any

Regarding validates_associated... Let''s say I have: article belongs_to author But for whatever reason, I want an article to also be written anonymously and therefore not require an author. Then I have: Article: belongs_to :author validates_associated :author But I DON''T have validates_presence_of. What I want to do is validate that an author is valid --if it is

I''m creating a simple portfolio site for a painter. I have a painting and an image model with following relationship: Painting has_many :images Image belongs_to :painting On the edit screen the user can edit the Painting data as well as upload pictures for a thumbnails and full size image. The Image model extracts filename, width, and height from the uploaded file, saves those

Hi, I''m struggling to get the validates_associated to work as I think it should be. I''m using: JRuby 1.1 rails-2.0.2 activerecord-2.0.2 activerecord-jdbc-adapter-0.8.2 My tables in MySQL: CREATE TABLE area_codes ( id INT UNSIGNED auto_increment primary key ... ); CREATE TABLE markets ( id INT UNSIGNED auto_increment primary key, ... ); CREATE TABLE

By trial and error I seem to arrive to the conclusion that 1. Validation recurses through has_many by default and a root save! call raises an excepcion if some child no matter how nested is fails validation 2. Validation does not recurse through has_one by default and you can change this with validates_associated, in which case exceptions behave like above

In my schema, a question has_many :answers. When the validations are run on a question, and one of the answers is not valid, then i get "Answers is not valid" coming out of errors.full_messages. I don''t want this, i''m already testing the validity of the answers and this is an ugly and uninformative error message. It looks like it''s the message i would get

I am trying to set up a validation in a model to ensure that a record can''t be saved unless the foreign key it belongs_to is a valid record. My model says: class Admin < ActiveRecord::Base validates_presence_of :user_id validates_numericality_of :user_id validates_uniqueness_of :user_id validates_associated :user belongs_to :user end but I can still create an admin

If I have belongs_to :user Do I need to have validates_presence_of :user_id ? Does Rails validate the presence of :user_id automatically if I have belongs_to :user? In other words, does Rails prevent against creating orphan records that belong to non-existent users? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all, I am a newbie to Rails. Please enlighten me on how to do this appropriately, the Rails and the Ruby way: Suppose I have a Recipe model.

I have a pretty complex form with many text fields and a number of selects. We let the user add multiple types of associated objects to the parent object and to edit the values for those associated objs, so the form can have something like the following number of fields on the page: 9 text fields + 3 selects + a*(1 text + 1 select) + b*(1 text + 1 select) + c*(1 text + 1 select) + d*(1 text +

Having one to many connection (for example post has many comments), what is the most efficient way of saving all comments when post is saved. Using after_save on Post would introduce the n+1 problem. Is there any way of saving the whole structure at once? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
