I know you get a lot of questions like this, but I couldn''t find one which answers exactly what I''m after. I''m reasonably new to rails, and I''m having a bit of trouble with when to use belongs_to. On the rails wiki ( http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/belongs_to), it says "In general, the Foo model belongs_to :bar if the foo table has a bar_id foreign

I''m developing a system similar to the ForumExample (http:// wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/ForumExample), and stumbled upon the following. Let''s say I wanted to get all the categories a certain user posted in.

I''m trying to use one form to upload a file to the file system and insert a title and description field into the database. I have no problem uploading files to the file system using the code from http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoUploadFiles There are more fields on the form than need to be inserted into the database, name and file. I need to pull out these extra fields

Is Ferret the standard rails search engine? I''m looking to search the file system and MySQL.

Hello all, I''m very new to Rails and I love it so far. However, there are some things that aren''t so clear to me. Let''s say a blog post can have many comments, and a comment can only belong to one post. A user can have many posts and many comments as well. (this part makes perfect sense): class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :posting belongs_to :user

This is pretty much the same as last time around, if you recall. Thanks to Wilson for converting to the new form. I''ve added a few lines. Basically, it iterates over your model associations and does two things. - First, just try to call the association. Usually fixes speeling erors or other such silliness. - Second, try to find a record with an :include on the association. This

I have a model ''xp_jurisdiction_taxes'' which rails (3) created correctly. Another model ''xp_jurisdiction_states'' has many :xp_jurisdiction_taxes. In my spec I am using a shoulda helper to test the association but get the following error. BTW, greped the whole project just in case and the string ''taxi'' exists nowhere. 1)

Im making forum and i have problem with paths. Here is code: http://pastie.caboo.se/6389 With this code, it works. But its a bit weird to use so many paths function.

Hi, Anyone can help me with rspec shoulda validations please. I can''t get the syntax right for these validations.

Hi, So i have users in the system and i have topics. Topics also have_many subtopics. What is the cleanest way to setup the AR relationships if a user can either have_many topics or subtopics ? Its basically a dual select box dropdown, where the second dropdown is optional. Is the best to have user_topics, and user_subtopics tables and manage that way ? or combine into one table with STI

I have a model "Childmodel" that belongs_to two other models "Parent1" and "Parent2". "Parent1" "has_many :childmodels, :order => :positionp1" and "Parent2" "has_many :childmodels, :order => :positionp2". i.e. The child is independently positioned within each of its parents. This works fine and gets me the useful

I recently wrote a matcher for testing AR associations which allows you to specify things like: Foo.should have_many(:bars).through(:bazes) I''m pretty darned proud of it and a couple of people have suggested that I should submit it to the rspec_on_rails project. Before I go to the trouble of writing out rdoc and fully spec''ing it, I just wanted to make sure this was
