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!

Hi all, I''m trying to pass more than one parameters using link_to_remote, but I''m getting a behaviour that seems quite strange to me. Here''s the code: link_to_remote ''some text'', :update => ''form'', :method => ''get'', :url => { :action =>

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)

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

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

I would like a route that strips of the suffix of a url before determining the action. Eg: http://mydomain.com/my_controller/my_action.pdf Would map to: { :controller => ''my_controller'', :action => ''my_action'' } Is this possible? Thanks, -Jonathan.

I''ve asked this before, but never got a working response. I''d like to store an object inside a binary field in my db. So I''d have a class like this class MyAwesomeClass def do_something_awesome ... end end then class MyRecord < ActiveRecord::Base end the table my_record would have a binary field, my_object, that would store an object of

I have a mock object (Person) that is associated with another object (my_object) through a belongs_to association. When I check whether my_object is valid (my_object.should be_valid), I am getting an error like the following: Mock "Person_6338" received unexpected message :marked_for_destruction? with (no args) Checking the list of methods on the mock,

Hey, am i to stupid to find the information about how to route to a controller in a module? Maybe module support has gone! The controller is under: app/controllers/admin/my_controller.rb The my_controller.rb file looks like this: module Admin class MyController def index render :text => ''Hello!'' end end end How does a route to all controllers under module

Ok, so I am basically trying to use ''link_to_remote'' and pass the value of a javascript variable as an argument. Something like that: link_to_remote "my_link", :update => ''my_div'', :url => { :action => "my_action", :var => ''my_var'' } Basically,

I have a simple login scheme in application.rb. Something like :requires_login is called in any controller as a before_filter. All is good, except I''m having trouble figuring out how to make the public login actions skip this before filter. Here''s what I have: application.rb skip_before_filter :requires_login, :only => [:login, :logout, :confirm_valid_login]

Hi! I''m new to ruby and rails and got problems with using basic methods like form_tag or link_to etc to create what i need, i.e. to specify css class or id or name of html elements. I have problem with understanding rails api (it''s just as an example): form_tag(url_for_options = {}, options = {}, *parameters_for_url) what parameters can i pass to form_tag? How to specify

Hi All, I''m trying to use a form to upload a photo that I will save using attachment_fu. I''m very new to Facebookr so I apologize if this is covered somewhere, but I''m kind of stumped. Here''s what I''m doing now: <% facebook_form_for(:my_object, :url => { :action => ''upload_photo'', :id => params[:id] }, :html => {

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 found a reference to using attachment_fu and followed the lead of it but having an issue with the redirect_to that renders the fb:render tag - In my form I''m setting the canvas to false, file is being uploaded / save fine but when I attempt to redirect: redirect_to :action => :new, :canvas => true Unfortunatly it looks like my callback URL is getting printed twice, e.g.

I am a rails beginner and I am having trouble displaying external urls on view.

Can someone help me in fixing this issue. Thanks --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you

The new "pending" example feature reminds me of a feature I''ve been bouncing around in my head, to aid in refactoring. Often, when I''m changing existing behaviour, I know that certain aspects of the old behaviour should change. Imagine changing the "it" method to perhaps "not" or "old" or "removed"... The behaviour would be to

Railers, I''m trying to figure out why invocations to my Web service URLs work with Rails 1.1.2 but fail both with Rails 1.1.4 (and 1.1.5) and when I apply the new 1.1.2 security patch to Rails 1.1.2. It looks like they are failing with SOAP clients but succeeding with XML-RPC clients. The URL that used to work is of the form http://localhost:3000/my_controller/ServiceName/api. When I

So I''ve decided to clean up the structure of my rails app and have been using named routes and storing certain controllers underneath other controllers where appropriate.. For example, I have an AdminController, as well as a ContentController. I decided to make ContentController a subclass of the AdminController, because the content management portion of the site is only accessible to

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
