I''m working on a plugin that requires some database support to do its job (adding a model or two). I''d like the plugin to automatically add a migration once it is installed. Is there already a mechanism for this? If so, how do you do it? -- *Berin Loritsch* Owner *Work:* 571-215-7708 *Email:* bloritsch@d-haven.com <mailto:bloritsch@d-haven.com> *IM:*

Does anybody use and prefer Redcloth (or bluecloth, which appears to be alpha)? Does it affect performance much? Is there a way to get it to automatically process templates without having to call textilize? Thanks, Joe -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is there any project or solution for an easy integration of a WFE / WfMS into rails? I''m quite new to this topic, but I probably need a small subset of workflow patterns (or whatever the correct term is) only. Any pointers are welcome. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Not really a Rails question, but a "best practices" one. If I want to associate an image to every account in my application, is it better to insert the image file directly inside the db or to upload the image in public/images/ ? Also, if I want to associate a cover to a movie, what''s the best approach ? TIA, ngw -- Nicholas Wieland nicholas_wieland@yahoo.it

Restricting size of an uploaded file, is how is that possible? If I do not want a user to upload a file larger than X bytes, can it easily be done? If I also would like restrict the types of files that can be uploaded, how may I do so? Thank you, Sharkie

So I''ve pretty much followed the steps in the video tutorial on RoR.com for creating a small app, to search for photos on flickr.com - all is good, and works as intended to.. How would I go about adding validation, so if no tags are specified it will fail. I know I have to use validates_presence_of :tags - but not in the controller.. so I tried to generate a model called

Hello I''ve been using Acts_as_Parnoid for a while and it has been working well but I am now having a slight issue with it. I have a company table were I would like to use validates_uniqueness_of :company_name. This validation works if a company exists in the database and has not been deleted. However, I also would like the validates_uniqueness_of to work if a company has

Hi! File_column plugin saves uploaded files to "public/model/image/model_id/filename", if i understand it correctly. Does it mean that it creates new folder for every image? I have product (model) that has_many images (model). Is it possible to use (or modify) this plugin that it would save my images to different folder, so the id of the model_id part would be id of the product

Does anyone have a sense for how painful the 1.0 -> 1.1 upgrade is going to be for existing apps? I''m finishing up my first real RoR application with Rails 1.0. I can live with it staying at that level, but I really want to use the has_many :through attribute to clean up some of my code. I''m not particularly interested in edge Rails, mainly because the documentation for

All, I''m attempting to use "form_tag_with_upload_progress" http://railsmanual.org/module/ActionView::Helpers::UploadProgressHelper/form_tag_with_upload_progress However, I''m having a hard time understanding what I''m supposed to provide and where in order to take advantage of it. There''s a lot of information and I''m sure I can figure it

How do I use... <%= link_to "All Facilities", :action => ''fac_log_all'' %> if I add :target => "_new" that is just a parameter and not a directive. I just want reports to print into a separate window. How do I do that? It''s not clear at all to me Craig

Sorry, but this is really NOT as easy as the tutorials/books make out. I''m really struggling at the first hurdle here. And while I''m not a programmer by design I do know my way around most stuff. And if I can''t get this to work I suspect more people will have the same issues. There seems to be too many variables to address. I have winXP, I have ruby and rails all

Is this the prefered method to implement RedCloth in your views. I''m trying to display user input that will sometimes have code references in it. This strips out all tags. I would like for the tags to be displayed but not read as html.

Hi, on a customer system samba/winbindd is used for windows and unix authentication. I just tuned searches of the ldap backend to speedup by factor 20-200 and slapd now doesn't seem to be the bottleneck anymore. Don't know how well the windows authentication now works, since this is presently done by the heartbeat failover server. However, simply starting 'mc' as root makes

Code that takes the default lazy behavior will still work if the default is changed to non-lazy. The only way non-lazy breaks (as far as I know) is if you've already done some lazy JITting and left some lazy stubs laying around. And code that does that will still work, after adjusting to an API change. This is one of the least disruptive breaking API changes imaginable. And getting rid of

Instead of making "lazy or not" be a policy maintained by the JIT, why don't we approach this as a bug in the current API. Perhaps we should
