Hi! It seems that migration doesn''t use single transcation to execute the needed migrations for the database upgrade, so if I have database at version 5, and I wrote some migrations 6..10, and error occurs while executing migration 7, the database stays in state 6? I also think that migration taks could use some more verbosity, for example if migration fails, there''s no

Hi! I just started using RSpec and have some question that I couldn''t find answers to. If I have a result that can have two valid values, is there a better way of writing the following assertion? [value1,value2].should_include actual Is there a more elegant way of performing should_satisfy on a collection, for example I currently use something like collection.each {|x|

Hi! Is there an option that I could provide to the spec runner that would make it stop after it encounters the first spec that fails? Esad

Hi! The following example doesn''t work for me: http://pastie.caboo.se/41732 However, if the call to msg() happens in the specify block after the expecation and not in the setup, it will pass. Why is this? I thought the setup method was there to actually ''construct'' the context and the specifications are some kind of "postconditions" that only need to be

Hi! I''m using Migration to define my database schema and these "ALTER TABLE t ADD FOREIGN KEY..." look really ugly - that''s why I wanted to ask it would be possible to simply add add_foreign_key method to ActiveRecord? Are there any reasons this isn''t yet implemented? Greetings, Esad -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi! Is there a nicer way of writing File.should be_exist(''filename'')? File.should exist(''foo'') throws NoMethodError in ''specification'' undefined method `exist'' for #<#<Class:0x3ec1c30>:0x3ebc308> (I''m using rspec from the trunk) Esad

Hello rspec-users, I''ve encountered a strange bug in rspec, but it may be me who is wrong. I''m running latest version from the trunk (r1678) of both rspec and rspec_on_rails. Please consider the following model: class Url < ActiveRecord::Base def after_save Contact.create!(:primary_email => ''user at example.com'') raise

Hi! I''m thinking of implementing datagrid like functionality for showing data (models) in grids so that I don''t have to re-invent the view/controller for each table I need. There are number of parameters that need to be customizable: column titles, row style depending on the data (i.e. showing all rows with balance<0 in red), is column sortable, sort-algorithm etc. To

Hi! Is it possible to render the action within the after_filter method, or is the rendering performed before? I have something like this: class FooController after_filter :send def a @content=... end def b @content=.. end protected def send send_data(@content,...) end end However, when calling the action a or b, the @content doesn''t get sent, but instead

Hi! I''m writing a datagrid plugin and would like to render the datagrid using a .rhtml template. However, I''d like to avoid placing this template in app/views/shared, but it should reside somewhere within vendor/plugins/datagrid/... Any ideas? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I am a bit of a rails and rspec noob. I am trying to use rspec in conjunction with CruiseControlrb. When I run a cruise build having spec errors, the build does not indicate a failure. I have tried to track down why this is the case, and my best guess is that the spec task is kicking off the spec via a ruby() method in rake, and that ruby method does not propagate my spec failure back to

Hi! Is it possible to run unit tests when no database is configured? Rails recipes mentions putting following piece of code in a file within lib/tasks/ [:test_units,:test_functional,:recent].each do |name| Rake::Task.lookup(name).prerequisites.clear end However this seem to be out-of-date, as task lookup in rake according to RDoc is now done using Rake:Task[name]. But after I updated the

Hey All, Two questions. Firstly, what is the difference between create and create! I see that create is document in the api http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/Base.html#M002269 What is the difference between the two of these functions and where is the create! function defined. Also, What are the differences between these two calls? a) SomeModel.create!{ :property_a =>

I have a question regarding best practices around module and plugin testing for rails applications. In our application we have created several plugins that extend ActiveRecord::Base with class methods, that when invoked in a model add behavior to that model. For example ... class SomeModel < ActiveRecord::Base adds_some_cool_behavior adds_another_wicked_sweet_behavior end My

Is there any scalable alternative to iterating all the records of a certain model? #find_all seems to load everything into memory. With 500.000 records it will be a swap storm. Pedro.

Hi! I am looking for a solution for the following problem: Some of my models share some attributes and also was in need for some extra features, so I created a class "RecordWithFeatures": ----------------------------------------------------------------- class RecordWithFeatures < ActiveRecord::Base # @Override def self.descends_from_active_record? superclass ==

I have a simple question when to the synchronize method in the Mutex class. Now that backgroundrb has allow_concurrency = true there is no need to synchronize database calls in threads.
