Hello all. Is there a way to stop users from being able to access a controllers methods without affecting the ability of other controllers to use them? i.e FooController def secret #Stuff end end BarController def index redirect_to :controller => ''foo'', action => ''secret'', :id => ''007'' end end But directly

Hi folks - Seeing a weird problem and would love some help. It''s documented in http://pastie.org/278310 to be more readable. In short, I have a caches_page "action", :if => {stuff} but the :if is never being called - the action is just caching every time. (If I put a debugger call in the :if block, it never stops.) If I replace caches_page with caches_action, the if

Hello, I have a method called "check_permission" that is set to run as a before_fitler and which checks if a user has the authorization to view a page. This page is displayed through the method "show" which is cached through the tag "caches_action :show" My problem is that once a user with authorization to a page accesses it, then afterwards all users (with or

Hello all, I am running a blog system which has its "/" (home page) cached like this: class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base before_filter :index_cache_expirer, :only => [:index] caches_action :index so the site''s top page is caches for 60 seconds in my case (index_cache_expirer is a home-made function to expire) on the site, there is also a

I have a lot of controllers with virtually identical functionality for most actions. I''ve been using shared behaviours to DRY things up a bit, but I still have to create separate behaviours for each context before I can use the shared behaviours what I have now is a generic file which contains all the behaviours and examples common to all the controllers, and that file gets loaded from

Hi When I enable action caching in my controller with caches_action :view_thread only the first part of my layout template is rendered (up to the yield statement), and the development.log shows Processing ForumController#view_thread (for 127.0.0.1 at 2006-05-31 03:13:19) [GET] Session ID: d6f7ef15f479250fd7e31e252d70f5ff Parameters: {"action"=>"view_thread",

I am trying to use caches_action and the agile book says that it is keyed off the URL, however it does not seem to pick up the URL parameters. http://localhost:3000/controller/action/id?foo=bar and http://localhost:3000/controller/action/id?foo=foobar Returns the same page. Anyone looked into how to add URL parameters to the cached key? Also, where do those file get stored? Thanks Dave

I was wondering if rails had any means of restricting access to an action in a controller (like they can''t type in url.com/cont/action, that would throw an error). The thing is I would like to be able to access this method/action through a call to render_component, so therefore, I don''t think private methods will work. So basically I am looking for something that cannot be

I''m calling render_component in a helper. render_component :controller => target_controller, :action => "show", :id => target_id This works fine, except that passing the id in :params didn''t work and I had to pass in an explicit :id parameter to get the target controller to override the id - is that documented anywhere? That''s not my question. My

Using Rails 1.1.2 and ruby 1.8.4 I''m having a weird issue with the flash when using render_component for an action inside different controller than the one from which you render. I''m passing an object via flash across a couple of actions (new and create) behind the scenes using flash.keep(:object). It works fine if the component I''m rendering is in the same

Hello, i have one layout file for all controllers. I would like to have news list on each page. So, i put <%= render_component :controller => "news", :action => "list" %> , to my layout file. But this doesn''t work at all. I get error "Application could not be started.. ". If I put render_component to some view file say

Maybe I''m missing the point? Lets take for example albums of pictures. If I have a scaffold for each, and I''m showing an album, what if I want to list all of the pictures that are in the album? Surely, I''d want to call the List action in the picture controller. render_component would do this perfectly. But we''re told not to use render_component. So

Hi All, Silly newb question. Is there a reason why :layout is unimplemented in render_component() ? I''m looking at a situation where that would *seem* to be the right answer. Are there any patches available to add this? JK

Hi All, Anyone know if there is a way to detect whether a request came from a render_component call? There isn''t anything obvious from looking at the source, but it would be useful as I have set up a logging filter in my application.rb, and I''d prefer to exclude all component renders, since they just add extra lines to my log (I guess I could exclude identical rows at the db

I have dynamically generated list of links that I wish to include in different views, I''m using render_component to do this but it is also including the layout. How do I turn layout off on a per action basis? Many thanks, K. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m using application.rhtml as the common layout for all controllers in my app. I want to add navigation links inside the header portion of each page and this section is in the application layout (application.rhtml). The navigation links also include inforation like username and a link to logout if the user is logged in, or link to login...standard stuff. Anyway, i have controller

Hi I''ve got a login action that handles authenticating users, setting cookies and, via its view, displaying an HTML snippet containing a form with username and password fields. It''s called from the main application.rhtml layout so I don''t need to have a seperate page (away from the main site) with a login form. My user model is more-or-less the same as in the Agile RoR

Hi I''m working on a program which relies on heavy cache sweeper usage. I''ve just bumped onto an odd problem. When using render_component method in layouts or templates with cache sweeping turned on, Rails throws an exception with the following message: NoMethodError in TestController#index You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! The error occured while
