similar to: script/console and IRB readline failure

I keep on running into an irb/readline bug in script/console or plain irb. If the line lengths get to long then up-arrow won''t bring up the line properly. I guess that the readline buffer is only so many characters long and I''m clobbering something. After it gets clobbered then up-arrow only prints an ampersand.

The agile book says "You can inspect variables, set values, add other breakpoints, and generally have a good time". This is very sweet and totally useless. For example, I want to see the session variable, the cookies variable and so on. These names are unknown. I think I guess that the things that are available depend on where you put the breakpoint() call. I''ve tried a

Reviews Wanted. I''ve read the tables of contents and haven''t yet made up my mind. Is one book clearly better than the other? Is one clearly full of bugs? Is one so much further ahead that there is no choice? Are they both so incomplete that I should just wait and only cook real food? Do trains still have dining cars?

What wysiwyg html/CSS editors do people recommend. I''m mainly interested in FOSS programs that I can run on WinXP. Sometimes you just have to create some mostly-static pages and make them look nice. I see that Guy Kawasaki is using Nvu, which is based on Mozilla composer. Any of you guys have any experience with that? Warren Fred -------------- next part -------------- An HTML

The Agile book seems to say I should specify this as follows, probably in the environments.rb: ActionController::CgiRequest::DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS[:database_manager] = CGI::Session::ActiveRecordStore BUT the environments.rb file would have me Un-Comment this: config.action_controller.session_store = :active_record_store Anyway, I''ve tried both, and in both cases it

Railers, I would like to know if there is a way of changing colors for IRB standard input ($stdin). What I am interested in "is having IRB highlighting syntax as I type". Among other stuff, I would like to be able to: - set its background colours - have differing colours for strings, variables, keywords, e.t.c. I do use Wirble and Term-ansicolor gems, and they are fine when it

I''m doing some design/debugging in IRB and need to login a user and then be able to gain access to current_user in my efforts (I''m using Devise for authentication.) I found a sequence from SO that allows me to successfully login via IRB and access a page response: >> ApplicationController.allow_forgery_protection = false >> app.post(''/sign_in'',

The domain registration companies are pushing an add-on called ''Private Registration'' where they keep your email and other personal info secret to prevent spam. Is this a good deal? Is it needed? Do you have it? Do you wish you did? Warren -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I often use script/console to interact with models. It would be nice if script/console acted like WEBrick when it comes to reloading classes that get updated. Anyway to do this? Short of this, is there a way to tell script/console to reload a class manually? My current solution is to exit and restart script/console. -Kelly -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was

Hi there, I just set up ruby and rails and now whenever I run script/console I get this error: Orenad:~/Sway/Projects/mi7/trunk/mi7 dave$ ruby script/console Loading development environment. /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/completion.rb:10:in `require'': No such file to load -- readline (LoadError) from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/completion.rb:10 from

Hey, folks! It looks like the version of Builder that''s included with Rails doesn''t properly escape characters like ampersand in attribute values, while the current version of Builder (2.0) does. I''d like to use this new Builder gem, but I can''t seem to get it to work. I''ve included the following lines at the top of the controller that needs

Does this work with rails 1.0 ? I saw that people said it failed with rails 14.1, which practically identical. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: http://wrath.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/attachments/20060125/5da24694/attachment.html

I''m running script/console but keep getting the message that irb.bat is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. If it means anything I am running instant rails. I can invoke irb straight forward. TIA Stuart -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Several years ago, before PHP introduced their built-in pfpro functions, I rolled my own crappy interface, which of course delegated to the commandline payflow client. I could certainly do the same in Ruby today. Thinking back on it, I realized at the time, and realize again now, that delegating this functionality to a commandline app is a security risk unless you''re the *only* user on

Every page of my DEPOT on Postgresql rails app now gets an error from postgres-pr about some wild left-join SQL that has nothing to do with my tables: SQL (0.000000) NameError: undefined local variable or method `errors'' for #<PostgresPR::Connection:0x3b200c0>: SELECT a.attname, format_type(a.atttypid, a.atttypmod), d.adsrc, a.attnotnull FROM pg_attribute a LEFT JOIN

I''ve been working with rails for a while now. Rails is the second web framework I''ve tried. It blows the doors off catalyst (perl''s best framework). I even just wrote my first plugin (broomstick). Ruby''s ability to meta-program blew me away with it''s ease of use. I''ve been so impressed with the helpers that rails uses to make a lot of

I was trying to access rails functions (number_with_precision) from an irb session. It can''t find the method. How do I load the libraries ? TIA LS -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Folks, I have the standard setup with auto-generated unit tests and fixtures. I edited the fixtures and the tests but would now like to test associations from irb. How do I do this? I''m not sure how to load my fixtures into irb, for example. Once they are loaded I would create objects, save them to the db and pull things out. Thanks, Joel -- http://wagerlabs.com/

How can I find all the methods on an object from withing irb? Thanks, Joe
