Hello, I''m a big bookworm, so I decided to round up all the upcoming Ruby books in the market in one big blog post. At my count, there are _sixteen_ books to be released (in print) for the upcoming year, with some available in pdf form right now.

Hi All, I saw spurious mentions on a few blogs of a DVD being made available of RailsConf presentations. However none seemed to have a who/what/when/where attached to them, thus might just be pure speculation. Anyone know of an official source/effort being made for a DVD? Would be well keen for copy if one is to be made available.... Cheers Rowan --- http://raili.st/ -------------- next part

I''ve written a little ruby/rails hangman-ish app to keep my wife occupied at work that I think list members might also find interesting. I''m new to this list so I wanted to see if it would be considered bad form to post the link before I did. There aren''t any ads so I''m not getting anything out of more visitors, but I still didn''t want to take the

I am trying to run some functional (or are they unit?) tests on my application_helper.rb. So far, I''ve not had any success in being able to call the methods defined in application_helper.rb.

Hi all Hope this isn''t too far off-topic on this list, as I think it would largely go ignored on the main rails list. I''m looking for the most pragmatic way to speed up our test suite. This is on an established project, and lets just say that we used way too many fixtures when we started =). For example: Finished in 128.870144 seconds. =============== 392 tests, 2106

Hi, I''m trying to send some emails with the same formatting as my pages & I can''t seem to access my display routines in application_helper.rb. I''m trying a hack to bypass this. At the top of my ActionMailer notifier script I''ve included application_helper.rb - my understanding is that this should arrive as a module and should be able to be used

Hi all, I have defined the following method in both application.rb and application_helper.rb: def still_logged_in? !session[:user_id].nil? end This method is called in a before_filter in my application.rb, as well as in my layout/application.rhtml and view/user/login.rhtml (for showing a login / logout button, etc.) I had to put it both places, otherwise I would get an

Having a weird issue where I can migration to version 1, but then go no further, and cannot go back to 0 -- but only from the command line. If I open up script/console I can do migrations just fine - down to 0 or up to 2, via ActiveRecord::Migrator. So I know the migrations must be valid, and I can verify that tables are created or destroyed in the database. Does anyone have any idea why this

Hi, I''m using the application_helper.rb file to create some useful functions for generating links by name. I understand that functions defined in this file are available to all views, but what about constants defined in that module? Is there a best practice approach for doing this other than accessing each constant via ApplicationHelper::FOO? Stu

Hey all, I''ve run into an interesting scenario that I think some of you might have some suggestions on. I am currently working on a RoR project and we are making full use of the migrations. We are also using a subversion repository for our source control. Now, the problem.... We are both making migrations and checking them into SVN. So, if in our checkout we have migrations up to 10 and

Hi, Nuby on Rails here trying to bring up an existing app on a new installation. The whole ruby/rails/mysql/lighty installation was done per the much touted "hivelogic article" that runs through all the steps.

Hello, I upgraded my Rails app from 1.0 to 1.1.2. Basically everything worked on my development box. When I uploaded the changes (including the frozen 1.1.2 gems) to my webhost most things worked. However I had a problem with my application_helper.rb file. It wasn''t able to find the url_for_image_column method from the file_column plugin. Here''s the relevant code in
