similar to: what version of BackgrounDRb do I have?

Ezra et al: I have this problem: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/backgroundrb-devel/2006-December/000578.html Any progress on it? Or are unit tests simply impossible for now? -- Phlip http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ZeekLand <-- NOT a blog!!

BackgrounDRbers: We pass a data batch to a background task for processing. When it finishes, our GUI updates correctly (using the results hash). But the data records don''t appear in the Rails connection to the database. Our stack is the HEAD BackgrounDRb, Rails 1.1.6, MySQL, and Apache/mongrel. As soon as I whack the background process with script/backgroundrb stop, the data records

Railsers: As usual for a product written very rapidly, most of its documentation assumes some other documentation told you something critical. For example, the file form_helper.rb tempts me with this documentation: # <% form_for :person, @person, :url => { :action => "update" }, :builder => LabellingFormBuilder do |f| %> That''s beautiful. Now what do I

RSpeckers: I went with RSpec instead of Systir because I downloaded and installed the former first. (I know that''s not exactly a ringing endorsement! ;-) I want to compete with FIT and Fitnesse, like this: http://www.zeroplayer.com/cgi-bin/wiki?TestFlea#tropism (Click on a Green Bar to distend one test case.)

I upgraded to Rails 1.2.1 and deployed to my ISP, who has 1.2.1 ready and waiting. The site disappeared into an HTTP 500 error. So I get into the site, run public/dispatch.cgi or dispatch.rb, and get this: # ./dispatch.rb Status: 400 Bad Request /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.4.0/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:405:in `to_constant_name'': Anonymous modules have no

When I read... http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/Routes ...it reminds me of the Apache documentation for mod_rewrite. I hope someone appreciates the candor of my

Railsters: ActiveRecord''s validation system puts other database systems to shame. However, the newbies might not know how to write a regexp that excludes a match, instead of tests for it. Understand - I''m just asking this question to help them. I have been using Regexps since ''grep'' on Xenix! But the newbies here might not know how to do this:

Railsers: The documentation for *.rhtml views invariably mentions *.rxml views. They sound like a Good Thing, because some of my generating code mixes Ruby and HTML so densely that the code is full of %><% markers. Dropping down to only one language would be a blessing. However, this documentation invariably avoids mentioning one tiny, insignificant detail: How do you inject raw HTML

Railsers: I switched from MySQL to Sqlite3 for Test-Driven Development. It meant the difference between (Long term, I want to understand the db:migrate system well enough that I can run a long test, occassionally, that migrates everything to MySQL and retests it there. That will prevent nasty surprises at deployment time. But that''s not the current question!) Because I don''t

BackgrounDRb-ers: I have this friend who claims that everything should have a unit test. We want to use BackgrounDRb in a test-first setting. When I update a database, to get it ready for testing, the update happens inside the MySQL transaction of the test process. The worker then runs in another process and sees the database''s original state. Turning off the transactions, in

Railsoids: FormTestHelper rules. It tests your response.body form at the same time as it triggers your action, with all the parameters in that form. This obviously improves quality. But it took issue with this: submit_form ''validate_stuff'' do |form| form[''IBhidden''] = ''validate'' end The field IBhidden is a hidden field. To be

Railers: Greetings from the low end of the learning curve. I have installed all the prerequisites on Win32, including a lite MySQL database with a table in it called Inventory. Then I run this command line... ruby script/generate ajax_scaffold Inventory ...and I get this error message: error Before updating scaffolding from new DB schema, try creating a table for your model

Railsters: The assert_select system has a submit_form method that reads your current page''s form, and submits all its fields with their data. This works great for Test Driven Development because it tests your current page''s form and your controller''s action at the same time. Is there a submit_form that calls xhr, to submit a FORM thru Ajax? How easy would that be to

Rubies & Acceptance Testers: For those of you not doing acceptance tests yet, I have a very slick test rig to show off. I haven''t demo-ized it yet, so please accept these diverse audiovisual displays as if they were a united whole!

I am trying to do file i/o with rails and rjb and can''t figure out a way to make this work. Here''s what I am trying to do: - a user uploads an image to the server via a standard html form: <%= file_field("blog", "attach") %> - this returns a ruby File object to the controller in params[:blog][:attach]

My latest stupid web trick, built, with love, in Rails: http://wordie.org Make lists of words. See who else likes the same words. Basically, it''s a dating site.

I have not been able to access the UJS site, http://www.ujs4rails.com/ for two days. Does that mean there are problems or that it has been incorporated into Rails core?

I have a big report to produce from a Rails app that takes several minutes to put together. I hoped backgroundrb would be able to pull together all the ActiveRecord stuff in the background then throw it back to Rails for rendering. It seems, however, that I can''t pass an array of ActiveRecord objects from the worker back to Rails. Do I have that right? Another possibility was to do
