Good morning rspec people! Still rspec nuby: I must do something wrong obviously. How can I spec about redirect_to at ApplicationController describe ApplicationController do it "method login_required should redirect to home path without login" do pending "I tried to use controller.login_required.should be_redirected and got NoMethodError with nil object

Just out of curiosity, why does action_controller.rb include classes with class_eval instead of directly? I.e., why ActionController::Base.class_eval do include ActionController::Flash include ActionController::Filters ... end instead of just class ActionController::Base include ActionController::Flash include ActionController::Filters ... end -- Posted via

Can anyone explain where render() comes from in ActionController::Base? I managed to trace it down only that far: ActionController::Base includes ActionController::Rendering where render() method is defined. This definition however calls to render of the superclass. Superclass is ActionController::Metal. Which in its turn inherits from AbstractController::Base. None of those have render () either

My rails log get chock a block with things like <<<<<<<<<<<< ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches "/admin/Y- ivrrecording.php" with {:method=>:get}): ...

This is a bit of a nuby question methinks but i''ve had a play/search around and it''s just bugging me now :0) Say I have a conditional statement, testing a variable against a number of values. The first way i did this is like so: if myvar != "" and myvar != 0 and myvar != nil # .. code end This seems a bit messy - is there neater way of doing this? I thought of:

Hi, I'm looking for a way to solve an error I get each times I run my functional tests. I have a Rails Engine gem (isolated), I have a JSON action with a route declared. But each times I use the method get in a test I get an ActionController::UrlGenerationError exception. Here an example of code with the problem: # config/routes.rbMyEngine::Engine.routes.draw do resources :cats, only:

Hi, My app uses attachment_fu and I''d like to pre-load some data via a rake task. Thus: [code]desc "Upload template files" task :upload_files_test => :environment do |t| conf = Conference.find(1) [{:f => ''styles.css'', :type_code => ''css'', :content_type => ''text/css''}].each do |i| file =

Has anyone had any success stubbing ActionController::Base#params?

I might have factored the gender. I'm not sure it would in any way be quicker. But might be to some extent easier to develop variations of. And is sort of what factors should be doing... # make dummy data gender <- c("Male", "Female", "Male", "Female") WC <- c(70,60,75,65) TG <- c(0.9, 1.1, 1.2, 1.0) myDf <- data.frame( gender, WC, TG ) #

i start the server but it exits right away, I ran the rake to update and changed the version string in config.rb. Any thoughts on this matter would be appreciated. i imagine that it has something to do with the session, but i am not able to figure it out. my config/config.rb has the following config.action_controller.session = { :session_key => ''c3_rails_session'',

I''m trying to override rescue_action_in_public() using the PP example, but my application hangs every time I generate an error. def rescue_action_in_public(exception) case exception.class when ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound, ActionController::UnknownAction render( :file => "#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/404.html", :status => "404 Not

I''m getting ready to put an app into production and I''ve found a strange issue that, as far as I know, shouldn''t be happening. To me this looks like it could be a bug, but I''m not sure and I''m hoping some one here can tell me if they''ve seen this before, or can idiot- check me in that hopefully it''s just something I''ve missed

Hello, I''m having some trouble handing ActionController::MethodNotAllowed errors. Basically, the following is defined in my controllers, but obviously I''m missing something. Thanks in advance for any light you can shed. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - class UsersController < ApplicationController rescue_from ActionController::MethodNotAllowed, :with =>

i can''t seem to get this working... basically, i want to use a patch that was added to rails: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/changeset/8785 but i don''t want to have to upgrade past 2.0.2, and i don''t want to have to freeze rails inside the app. so i was hoping to override the methods in ActionController required to make the patch to my app only. i created a file called

Hey, i''m trying to use "s3cache" plugin with my app, but after adding it to my vendor/plugins directory and following the install steps i''m getting this error after running script/server: /Users/richardschneeman/Documents/AptanaStudio/slangasaurus/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:275:in `load_missing_constant'': uninitialized

There are many techniques Callum and yours is an interesting twist I had not considered. Yes, you can specify what integer a factor uses to represent things but not what I meant. Of course your trick does not work for some other forms of data like real numbers in double format. There is a cost to converting a column to a factor that is recouped best if it speeds things up multiple times. The

Hi Guys, ActiveRecord is great for being able to drill down through many tables. I often locate the very "top" record, and have a render :action => "show" display that top record. Often I want to drill down like: @kingdom.phylums.classes.orders.each do |order| render :partial => "order/show" end But, depending on the user who is logged in, they see a

Hi All! This is not a problem in general but i''ve just missed the point. If my application has a global state, which i have to use both throughout ActionController and ActiveView, then, where to place that state? E.g. if I do this: class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base protected def authenticated? !user.nil? end end then I can''t use that from any
