Hello, I have the usual Categories and Products table scenario, mediated by a Categories_Products join table. When I create a new Product and into a given Category, I notice that my join table is not being populated. Shouldn''t the join Categories_Products table be populated?

Hi, Four tables: users, user_counties, uk_counties and us_counties. Each user has many counties, and each county has many users, so I decided to make user_counties a polymorph, so it can have counties from different countries (each country requires a completely different set of tables with a completely different set of properties, that''s why there''s one table for uk_counties and

Hi I have a has_many :through. It''s a basic mapping of Project id .... User id .... TeamMembers project_id user_id role What I would like to do is have different roles so I can have in the project model has_many :core_members, :through => :team_members, :source => :user but I would like to limit this to only those with the "core" role in the team members table for

I just took my HABTM and turned it into a :through since my join table has another "non-joiny" attribute. I went from this: has_many_and_belongs_to :jobs, :join_table => ''tablename'', :foreign_key => ''x'', :association_foreign_key => ''y'' to this: has_many :jobs, :through =>

Hi there I need to store additional attributes on join table. Searching the Wiki [1] revealed two possible methods: 1) push_with_attributes, as described by Justin Palmer [2]. Unfortunately, "this method is now deprecated" [3]. Even if it wasn''t, there seem to be inherent problems with that approach, for example with updating those additional attributes, though Joshua Muheim

I have a problem declaring a relationship through a join_table ; the SQL generated by ActiveRecord is correct, but there are two columns called ''id'', and the final object gets the ''wrong'' column ... Here''s a more detailed description of the data, code, and problem :- There''s a People table, with id, name, and a few things. Also a

So having just learned how to do has_many :through as opposed to HABTM, and then, being concerned that I wouldn''t get it to work, I started thinking about these two approaches. It seems to me that the _only_ problem that the HM:T (has_many :through) approach solves that HABTM doesn''t is the issue of the potential collision of id columns between your join table and one of

It seems that using a join model that joins with two has_many''s will fail to generate proper SQL class StudentSemesterRecord < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :semester has_many :discipline_records, :through => :semester end class Semester < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :student_semester_records has_many :discipline_records end class DisciplineRecord <

Hi, I have three Models: User, Group and File. User habtm groups and Group habtm Files How can I find all files that a particular user has access to? eg user.groups.files ?

All, I''m building model objects for existing tables that I cannot modify. In AWDWR, Dave says "Note that our join table has no id column...The second reason for not including an id column in the join table is that AR automatically includes all columns from the join tables when accessing rows using it. If the join table included a column called id, its id would overwrite the id

Sort of a newbie question - sorry if it''s been asked before and I missed it in my search. I have an id_array of Author ids, and I want to retrieve the associated Author models as quickly as possible, but also preserve the ordering of the id_array. Using Author.find(id_array) returns the records, but not in the same order. Is there some flag I can pass to find() to preserve the order? I

Hi all, wondering when I need to restart apache. I''m setting up a rails system for the first time, and it seems to be caching my database configuration, unless I restart apache.

Hi all. I am currently thinking about how to do the following: I have the following models. Team Person Team has various positions (manager, programmer etc.) I would like each one of those positions to reference one or more Person records. A single Person record could be on 6 different teams at the same time in different roles. the same person could even be on the same team multiple times

I''d like to use :through to create a web of associations like: class Thing < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :child_things, :through => :thing_thing has_many :parent_things, :through => :thing_thing, :some_other_option? end class ThingThing < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :thing belongs_to :child_thing, :class_name => ''Thing'', :foreign_key =>

I''m working on a simple photo gallery in rails, it seems to be a good project for a newbie. I have photos and categories, many-to-many association. It worked well with HABTM. Then I decided that it would be good to be able to change order of the photos so that thumbnail pages would look less chaotic. So I created a Layout model which is a join model (or whatever it is called) that
