Is there a method to return a hash of the route configuration based on a path? For example: magic_method(''/my_controller/my_action/my_id'') => {:controller => ''my_controller'', :action => ''my_action'', :id => ''my_id''} Thanks!

I want a method in app/controllers/application.rb that can prepend/append text to whatever template gets rendered. Of course I can''t call render twice w/o getting a double render error, so is this possible? I want to redirect after a delay using a meta refresh. Here''s what I''ve got: app/controllers/application_controller.rb: def redirect_after_delay (url, delay)

I have a piece of code like this in one of my views: <%=link_to "link here", :action=>''my_action'', :id=>1 %> It works fine on my local development machine, running Webrick over http and it works fine on my testing server which is running single mongrel instance behind Apache 1.3 as a proxy. On both the outcome link is this: <a

Hi there, do you agree that for having scheduled tasks in Rails, the leanest solution is the following? - Create a controller with an action for each task - Implement the logic of the task as controller code - Set up a cron job at the OS level that uses wget to invoke the URL of this controller/action at the appropriate time intervals Advantages: 1) full access to all your Rails objects just as

When a controller responds to a link_to_remote with a redirect_to, the link_to_remote gets a success callback, this would seem like a bug to me, at a minimum it should return a failure? This is driving me crazy because all the login engines/generators respond to an authentication error with a redirect_to. The work around is to change them to all do a render :layout => false, :status => 500

I have an application that worked fine, but after the recent updates has broken in some calls to render_component from views. I might be missing something but as far as I remember Rails updates is the only thing I''ve done in between. See the log: *** START LOG SNIPPET Start rendering component ({:params=> {:center_id=>10, :id=>25},

Here is the scenario I am trying to achieve. Basically, I want to run the action "show" from my controller, without adding the "show/id". Standard: http://www.domain.com/controllerName/show/id I would like: http://www.domain.com/controllerName/randomstring (where randomstring is a field in my model/table, that is equivalent to a GUID -> and unique). I''m confused

Basically, I''m trying to have a table called "categories" have a many to many relationship with itself. But I also want each catagory to be able to be "copied" into another category so it is essentially a child category to more than one parent. To me the obvious way of doing this is by creating another table called category_maps (and a model called CategoryMap).

I see from http://rubyonrails.org/api/classes/ActionController/Components.html that is possible to pass paramaters to a component. I don''t understand the exact syntax. I''m trying: @master_id = @params[''master_id''] in the components controller but it is not working. ==== Details: In my calling view I have: <%= h(@opportunity.id) %> <div

Hi, I have build a conversion script from an old database to a new one (which is designed to work with ROR), and every action converts one table and takes over 5 minutes... When I trigger the actions from my browser, I finally end up with a "Failed to start properly"... So, simple question: How can I do this from the console, that is to say, trigger one of my controller''s

Is there a dev mailing list? I would like to ask developers whether the special handling of :id in render_component[*] is actually a bug, and in that case how to revise the signature according to how rails evolves. Or should I do that through a ticket directly? -- fxn [*] http://wrath.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/2006-April/032635.html

Can anyone supply me with a simple, succinct explanation of what the difference is between the "new" controller and the "create" controller that the scaffold generator produces? I run: > script/generate scaffold modelname controllername And now I need to do some work inside the controllername.rb file. For example, pulling a list from another database table to supply

I''m trying now to do "sudo fixrbconfig" in the terminal, and I get this: /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/powerpc-darwin8.0/ruby.h does not exist.

Got a noob question for ya... When I visit http://localhost:3000/ I get the nice "Welcome to rails" page. To get to a controller I have to go to: http://localhost:3000/controllername What if I don''t want the welcome message and want / to resolve to a controller? How do I set that up?

Ez (or someone) asked on #merb tonight whether respond_to was the right API for what it does. After some discussion and pasties, I offer the following proposed API for content negotiation and response format selection: First, what does respond_to do right now?
