similar to: Creating records in two models in a RESTful way.

Does someone have an actual example of this? I saw DHH''s slides where he said that you could have your app automatically respond with HTML, XML, atom, whatever. So far I''ve found tons of discussion on REST and CRUD in Rails, but I haven''t seen anything that actually shows me what it all is. There''s simply_restful, which apparently makes things easier...I

Hey guys, I just implemented very simple and primitive class table inheritance in ActiveRecord. The goal is for this to become mature enough to become a true feature in Rails. Check it out here: http://guest@blog.raylucke.com/svn/inherits_from Here?s how it looks in action: create_table "books", :force => true do |t| t.column "product_id", :integer t.column

I have noticed that the image_tag helper method now appends a request parameter to the generated src attribute. With Rails 1.0/actionpack-1.11.2 I had <img src="/images/rss.gif" /> Now (1.1/1.12.1) I get <img alt="Rss" border="0" src="/images/rss.gif?1142366545" /> Is there any use for that number? Where does it come from? This is very far

In DHH''s keynote, he alluded to doing logins with REST. Has anyone implemented this, and if so, would you mind elaborating on how you did it please? Thanks in advance. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m coming from an Oracle and SQL Server background. I''d like to use OpenSource for my next RoR project. MySQL5.x and Postgres8.1 seem to be the most popular. I''d like some comments on which would be the better choice for a production environment and why. Here are my initial concerns in order of priority: 1. Works well with RoR. ( migrations, etc) 2. Stable enough

I am having a heck of a time understanding the new rest craze in rails. what I think I understand so far: 1 rest is about the way we use http to access information on the internet. 2 http was created with nouns and verbs in mind, but the only verbs that are supported in browsers and server software today are ''post'' and ''get''. Other useful verbs include put

Question, and I''ll preface it by asking if this is the right list to be posting questions regarding anything past Rails 1.1.6 , (i.e. edgerails) ? In the latest revision of AWDWR there is a sample REST based app. During the creation of the controller and actions, there is a foot note that says: "7. By the time you''re reading this, there may well be support build into Rails

Is Rails a good place to start for a newb to the database world ?? I need to make a database that is searchable with multiple filters that can be turned on and off at a moments notice kinda like java xhtml dynamic loading.. I have not worked with php or mysql much more than basic scripts running and website defaults. so I am new to the racket and want to pick something that is robust and

Hi, I just heard about REST capabilities of rails 1.1. Does anyone know a good tutorial, or good article to begin with?

I''ve finally started a blog. I really didn''t want to go public with it until I was sure I keep it up, but DHH posted a entry to his blog that I feel compelled to comment on. You can read about it on my blog: http://www.bloglines.com/blog/CurtHibbs Curt

I''ve been looking into RESTful approaches lately. Everything I know my dog, Lelu, taught me. REST (REpresentational State Transfer) is an architectural technique for networked applications first described by Roy Fielding in his dissertation at UC Irvine-- excellent work, especially considering the tempting proximity of Newport Beach. As Lelu described it to me, REST strives

Is it possible to have more than one kind of view for a specific action, for example an .rhtml and a .rjs file to handle the view for the same action? I suspect not, but this makes me wonder if there a way to call the .rjs file from within the .rhtml so the statements within it get executed? Thanks, Andy

Hi everyone, A couple of weeks ago I noticed a bug with :dependent => :nullify on a has_many or has_one. When you delete the parent, the children''s foreign keys are nullified, as expected. But when you do parent.child.delete or parent.children.clear, ActiveRecord actually deletes the child records, rather than just nullifying them. In my eyes, if you''ve set

Hello: I have found a whole lot of posts on this, however, none of them offer any sort of solution other than restarting the web server, which I can''t imagine everyone out there developing on Rails is doing. I am on page 40 of Agile Development with Rails 3rd edition and trying to get the missing template error to show but until I restart webrick I only get the following: Processing

In Blinksale, the settings link in the top right takes you to the / account url. From there, the side nav takes you to /account;templates / account;reminders , etc. >From what I''ve read, ;templates and ;reminders are custom rest actions for a given resource. But the controller (account) does not appear to be of rest nature. Also, when creating a new account, the url is / firms/new .

When using named RESTful routes, when should one use the generated ..._path helpers, and when the ..._url helpers? Say I did this in routes.rb: map.resources :users Where should I use users_path, new_user_path, etc., and where should I use users_url, new_user_url...? Thanks!

In the "Agile Web Development with Rails" book it runs through making an example application, a shopping cart. In one of the views files, there is one line of code I dont understand (below), I dont know what the "h" is for, also I took the h out, and it did not affect the application (as far as i could see). <%= h(product.title) %> Can anyone shed some light on this

Hello! I just read DHH''s presentation pdf. In his examples, he wrote PeopleController instead of PersonController. I''ve been using singular words in controller''s name. Which is more common? Thanks. Sam -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, We are thinking about choosing Rails as our weapon of choice for our next project, which is basically a text editor on steroids, whith some functionality that need an Internet connection. In the first step we are going to develop it as a plain web app (AJAX-ified, yay!), however, in the next step we would like to port some of the functionality (such as the editor) to a desktop app (which can
