similar to: Arel limit Where if fields are present

Hello all, I''ve recently been on a project where somewhere needs using case insensitive search(using UPPER(name) LIKE '''') and LIKE condition, I want to use arel and don''t use the old style string concatenation, can arel handle this? But I check on arel documentation, doesn''t seems have any upper/like operator, and check on arel source, under

I''m trying to figure out how to use ActiveRecord in conjunction with ARel. In particular, I''d like to replace my residual literal SQL with ARel, if only I could see how. Let''s take Article with multiple Versions as an example. With ARel alone, I can find articles with their latest versions like this articles = Article.arel_table versions = Article.arel_table

What is the recommended way to use table aliases with ActiveRecord::Relation these days? In prior versions of Rails, this would work: assume (pseudo code): model A has_many b''s model B ,,, at = B.arel_table atalias = at.alias(at.name + "_1") A.join(:b).join(atalias).where(atalias[:a_id].eq(at[:a_id]).where("b.widget =

Hello rubyonrails-core, I’ve been looking into possible changes to ActiveRecord / Arel to make it easier to write Rails applications that are free of SQL injection vulnerabilities, and in particular do so in a way that makes it easy for a code reviewer to verify that the app is safe from such bugs. The concern: ----------------- With the ActiveRecord API as is, it’s relatively easy to write

Hi all I want to make copy of current scoped object, then change some stuff in arel_table(i need to change table_alias, because i have complicated query) and arel(SelectManager) def self.do_smth query = scoped.dup puts query.arel_table.object_id == scoped.arel_table.object_id # true end Theoretically i can dup arel(SelectManager) but i can not find how to add table alias to that instance

I have a real-world application with some complex queries that I want to convert to Arel (as part of an upgrade to Rails 3.1). So that I can understand what I''m doing before I flail around in my real app, I wrote a little sample app (just the models) with some similar associations -- one table joined with itself and more tables that join to another table, so there are some queries that

Hi, I have a scenario where a doctor can have one or more specialties. For each doctor, one and only one of her specialties can be designated as primary. So I have tables called doctors, specialties, and doctors_specialties, the last of which has a boolean is_primary column. The doctor model class specifies that: has_and_belongs_to_many :specialties I want to enforce, at the lowest possible

Hi all, I'm having a problem restructuring my data the way I'd like it. I have data that look like this: Candidate.ID Specialty Office Score 110002 C London 47 110002 C East 48 110003 RM West 45 110003 RM

Hi.....I am relatively new to R but was quite pleased with myself at having generated a series of lattice plots as PDFs. I was very surprised when plotting these out as jpegs (or png or tiff) that the strip title information above each lattice plot vanished. The pdf was fine. Has anybody any ideas? I can't add an image as the information is sensitive. Many Thanks Steve Creamer Here is the

Hello, Arel::SelectManager (arel 2.0.9) uses following statement to insert a new record: @engine.connection.insert im.to_sql, ''AREL'', primary_key_name, primary_key_value But in DatabaseStatements insert ist defined as: insert(sql, name = nil, pk = nil, id_value = nil, sequence_name = nil) Actually, Arel::SelectManager does not use the sequence name. This leads to issues

I just posted this ticket in Lighthouse, but thought perhaps some discussion here would help point me in the right direction toward a solution. Here is a description of the problem (from the ticket - https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994-ruby-on-rails/tickets/6693-arel-union-does-not-support-order-or-limit) : > If we take two `ActiveRecord::Relations` and join them via `union`:

I have the following code: advertisements_arel = Advertisement.order("advertisements.id DESC").arel @advertisements = (params[:website_id].present? ? advertisements_arel.where(:website_id => params[:website_id]) : advertisements_arel).to_a It returns a struct Arel::SelectManager::Row data But I''d like it to return an array of Advertisement objects (like it would

Hi, I''ve search for documentations on queries with Arel 2 but there is pretty nothing and all I''ve found is for Arel 1 so I''ve run into NoMethodError: undefined method `[]'' for #<Arel::SelectManager:0x00000003f1b820> errors with join syntax. My query is barely simple but involve nesting queries. I have 4 tables. Assets, Deposits, Orders and OrderLines

Firstly I''m sorry if this is off-topic but I think it''s a question that won''t be answered without good core knowledge. I have written a multiple self join query something like this: Person.find :all, :select => ''children_people_3.*'', :joins => { :children => { :children => :children } }, :conditions => { :people => { :name

I want to write an arel engine to run an arel-based client against a RESTful back-end. I''ve seen people talk about it, but haven''t seen it actually done. Is it possible? What is the best place to find info/examples on how to do it? tx, Andy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. To post to this

Specifically, it''s not playing nice with any type that it doesn''t recognize, eg. SET, ENUM, etc.. Just trying to start my Rails 3.0.2 app I get a NotImplementedError exception "Column type `` is not currently handled" on the first SET field it encounters. Am I missing something here? Should I be disabling Arel for legacy tables or something? Thanks, Jason -- You

Hi, I''ve been playing with Arel for a few days, but I feel really confused about predicates / arrays intersection. Let''s say I have 3 models: users, (bank) accounts and transfers. An account belongs to a user, and a transfer is made of a source and target accounts (see the snippets below). Given a user, I want to query his transfers. I can go this way in the User class: def

I've been working my way through the softphones listed on voip-info over the last few weeks and I've not really found anything to fit the bill. Has anyone had more luck? The environment is a small call centre of 5 users. Operators often need to be able to transfer calls to other operators with different specialties, so the softphone needs to be easy to use and quick to transfer calls.

NetWare 6 sp4 server to windows 2000 server using cwrsync 1.2.1 when the cwrsync service writes the files to the server it uses it's own username and permissions. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get this to write the files so common users and delete and change stuff? would the perverse permissions work with windows?

Hey, We hit a bug today because Arel::Visitors::ToSql is not threadsafe. Here is what is happening: Arel::Visitors::ENGINE_VISITORS is a cache of visitors instances. These instances are not inherently threadsafe because it contains state ''@last_column'', ''@connection'' that is shared between threads. The other variables ''@pool'',
