I''ve been using rails for about a month and I''ve been noticing that most of my controller functions use values from my session variable. I find that I write something like: person = Person.find(session[:person] if( person ) # ... else flash[:notice] = "unable to retrieve person" redirect_to( :action => index ) end It seems redundant to write similar code for

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 =

Essentially, I want to populate the relationship table which will create the correct join values in my model. Here is my check_box_tag code: <%= check_box_tag("@current_job[target_list_ids][]",
