similar to: Validate using boolean values

Instead of using numeric I created the field "unit_price" as PostgreSQL type money. Now when I try and add a row I get the following. How do I override AR default behaviour to cast numeric post data to money, or am I forced to only support database types that active_record knows about?

I have some code in my controller which looks like this: if request.post? and @account.save and @user.save ... end and in my Account and User models I have many :validates, like so account.rb validates_presence_of :subdomain, :on => :create validates_uniqueness_of :subdomain, :on => :create, :message => "is already being used" validates_exclusion_of

I have looked at examples for this. I found a similar example in the Agile Web Dev... book but that didn''t help. Here''s what i am trying to do. A Cart has many line items.

I apologize if this is a very simple question; I''ve searched the forums, wiki, Google, and Agile Web Development with Rails to no avail. Is there a way to put conditional validation in the model? For instance, if I want to limit items a user can add unless the user is an admin? My current code is: validates_uniqueness_of :user_id, :scope => ''event_id'',

Hi, I have a data file with all our purchases from last year, it contains the unit price, count, and total dollars spend. Now I'm looking for some way to "classify" all our purchases to find out which purchases are the best ones to find cheaper alternatives. for example: if we only buy 1 item of a product which costs 5 dollar, we maybe can find a cheaper product of 4.5 dollar, but

I was wondering if anybody knows an easy way to pass a method name as the scope option to a validates_uniqueness_of validation on a AR model?

I have Proposals and Members and Members can vote for a proposal only once. So, I have "Vote belongs_to :member, :proposal", but to make sure a member only votes once, I want to make sure that there isn''t a vote in the db with that member_id and proposal_id.

Hi all, I have a little function called format_price(price) that simply formats the argument as a dollar sign, dollar amount, dot and penny amount. Then, in a .rhtml file, I could do this: <%= format_price(item.unit_price * item.quantity) %> But where do I put the format_price() function definition? The app couldn''t find it in app/controllers/application.rb. Where do I put it
