similar to: Naming rights_roles join model using has_many :through and polymorphic associations

It is my understanding that originally controller names where singular. In all the examples of RESTful controllers the names have been pluralized. So what is the new convention? Singular or plural controller names?

I''ve been bringing up a good basica framework for applications at work. To give decent security I''ve been implementing the Rails Recipie for Authorization of function calls modeled on the book''s implementation. (Changes for our environment were added..but are minor.) Since I initially let Rails create the join table between two data tables with a HABTM relationship....I

i got the rails recipes book, i have now an auth system for users without problems, now i want to made a role based acces for my app, im following the "Role Based Authorization" recipe of the book but i cant make it to work even when the tables created and correctly added data manually definig the roles and rights. als i dont know how to define a right for use all the actions in a

I have a role-based authorization system exactly like the one from Rails Recepies. I am looking to return all rights however in my view I want to highlight the rights that are associated with the currently selected role (passed in through @params[:id]). Schema: create_table "rights", :force => true do |t| t.column "name", :string t.column "controller",

Hello, is it possible to setup a model/table schema like this: Groupable --> Membership <-- Group ^ ^ | | User UserGroup I tried the following but failed: Groupable (table with ''type'' column) has_many :memberships, :as => :groupable has_many :groups, :through => :memberships

I want to create table called roles and then populate it with some new records...This doesn''t work. Is there something I''m missing? Craig class AddRightsAndRolesTables < ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up create_table :roles do |t| t.column "name", :string end Role.reset_column_information Role.new :name => "Users Admin"

I''m lost on regular expressions to begin with... I''m trying to fix a value to one of 4 radio buttons as there will be value of either 1,2,3 or 4 in @roles_users... <TD><input type="radio" id="roles" name="case_managers[case_manager_name]" value="Case Manager Admin" <% if =~ @roles_users /1/ checked =

Class Role has_and_belongs_to_many :users Class User has_and_belongs_to_many :roles Class RolesUsers has_and_belongs_to_many :roles has_and_belongs_to_many :users According to the logs...I''m good through here @roles_users = RolesUsers.find(:all, :conditions => ["user_id = ?", params[:users_id]] ) the next section of controller code is a problem...

Hello everyone, I was trying to set up access control in a new application Im working on, I''m trying to use the excellent authorization plugin from Bill Katz, Its pretty straight forward to setup and should be to use. But when i try to give the same permission on two differents users on the same object i get an error. (Well , Im kinda new to all this rails stuff) r = Red.find(1) u1 =

I''m making a simple questionnaire app using RoR. I''ve got a model for Questions, a model for Answers, and a third model, Qa, for matching each question to five possible answers through foreign keys. So, each qa has a question and five answers , a1-a5, through belongs_to and a :foreign_key, and then a selected_answer field for specifying which answer was selected by the user. The

Hi guys, I have the strangest thing happening. The funny part is its doing exactly what I want to do, I just don''t understand how. Basically here is my model. class Role < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :users has_and_belongs_to_many :rights def self.names names = Array.new() for role in Role.find :all names << role.name end return

I have added roles and roles_users table and updated the model so that my users can have multiple roles. ("Admin" role does always have id = 1). I have added these methods to my application controller. <code> helper_method :is_admin? helper_method :is_user? def is_admin? if @session[''user''] @session[''user''].roles.find(1)

Here are a couple of articles I wrote describing a couple of handy helpers for dealing with polymorphic objects. These helpers allow you to generate urls and render partials on objects without knowing what class they are ahead of time. http://www.sciwerks.com/blog/2006/05/24/polymorphic-urls/ http://www.sciwerks.com/blog/2006/05/24/polymorphic-partials/ Hopefully you will find them useful.

(Nuby to Ruby and Rails...) I''ve implemented security using the login generator in a simple app so that I have a user table, a roles table, and a join between them (roles_users). All works as expected. I now need to check if a user has a specific role, but my approach is off somehow. Here''s what I''ve tried thusfar: user_roles = @session[:user].roles

i''ve got an issue with integer columns in the database becoming strings in the model and I''m not sure why this is happening. perhaps someone can explain. given the following setup (simplified for example) tables: users ---------- id - int name - varchar(60) roles ---------- id - int name - varchar(60) roles_users (join table) ---------- role_id - int user_id - int

Is there a clever way to destroy just the link in Polymorphic association? For instance, in the example they have folders containing images. If I want to destroy the link from the folder to the image (not the image and not the folder), do I have to search through the join models to find the correct join model that links the folder and the image, or is there a more clever way? That''s

Hello guys, I have 2 classes (I pasted small part of them here); class Shop < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :items, :as=> :itemable protected def self.paying_scope with_scope(:find => {:conditions => ''expires_on > NOW()'', :include => [:address]}) do yield end end end class Item < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :itemable,

Using the example in the docs if I say @folder.items and I list the items, everything lists fine. If I delete a ''linking'', I still get the same list. Shouldn''t I get one less item even though the other two db''s haven''t been updated? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
