similar to: Speeding up ActiveRecord creation?

I am working on and will be publicly showing ActiveRecord some love around the time of the RubyConf*MI [1] in late August. My main focus is getting AR to better handle inserts, updates and merges when working large sets of data. It can improve improve performance by 400% to 600% in preliminary benchmarks. I am coding this in a way so it can be patched to AR easily, and with that in mind

Hello all! I have two views (list_1 and list_2) that show a list of users in two different ways. In the views for these actions there is a link to edit a specific user properties (edit_user). That works fine, except that when I change the user I want to go back to the view that originated the request and not to the default list (list_1). Can anyone help me? Best regards, Hugo -- Posted via

Hi. I need to use functions INET_ATON, INET_NTOA for IP address retrieving. Is it possible to make this transparently (without custom SQL for saving, updating and retrieving)?

How do you run an ad-hoc query that does not belong in any model? I thought it was something like ActiveRecord::connection.find("my query..."), but I can''t seem to find the documentation on it. I know I''ve seen it somewhere before, though. thanks, Jeff -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

In my rails application, certain computers were having huge problems. There were certain pages that were exceptionally slow, even to the point of timing out. Other computers did not have a problem. I finally found that Firefox was the difference. When using Firefox on those computers it works fine. The slow pages were typically posting a form with a couple hundred fields. This behavior was

Given the case of validating the presence of an attribute and then performing other tests on said attribute, how do you go about not having to check for nil in the other tests? Example: validates_presence_of :start_date, :end_date validate :validate_start_date_before_end_date def validate_start_date_before_end_date # without this check an exception will be thrown on access to the

I had a statement that was generating a warning about parenthesise argument for future version. The interesting thing was it would crash the page with an input/output error on my production linux server, but worked fine in webbrick/windows. I finally tracked it down to it crashed when trying to print the warning to the console. If I kept the terminal open that I started the server on it would

Hi everyone, I''m having trouble validating a model. The corresponding table has some boolean columns: create_table :permissions do |t| t.column :project_id, :integer, :null => false t.column :group_id, :integer, :null => false t.column :read, :boolean, :null => false, :default => false t.column :write, :boolean, :null => false, :default =>

has_many.count does not seem to support an options hash like ActiveRecord::Base.count does. Example: >> AcademicProgram.find(:first).course_requirements.count :conditions => "courses.name LIKE ''a%''", :include => :course => 40 >> ap.ap_requirements.count :conditions => "courses.name LIKE ''a%''", :include =>

Let''s say you want to validate that an attribute contains only 2-10 lowercase characters, e.g. with validates_format_of. The appropriate regex is obviously /^[a-z]{2,10}$/, right? Wrong! Try it with "abc\nANYTHING YOU LIKE" - this is perfectly valid. On the second look the reason is clear: ^ matches the start of a line, $ matches the end of a line. So as long as one line in

Hi, This code loops through my results and saves them : @results.each{|r| r.save} There are potentially thousands of results. This takes ages to complete. Is there a quicker way to do this? Any help is greately appreciated Thanks Chris -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I wonder if there is some fonctions which allow an activeRecord to save more than one row at a time??? As I understand, when we create an object from AC::Base, it represents one row of the table. So if I want to save more than one row, I have to create the object one by one and then save them one by one. If I have 10, it is fine, but if I have more than 1000, so it will a lot of time.... So

Hi! I recently started with RoR and this may be a newbie question. I have a company table, employee table and transactions table. 1 company has many employees. Each employee performs many transactions. Employees from different companies LOGIN to the system to record their transactions. Employees can search on all transactions associated to their companies (indirect relationship via employee),
