Hello all, I''ve recently been working with a model with a lot of boolean attributes and I decided that it''s worth trying to implement a attr_boolean function to cut down on the work. Something like class User < ActiveRecord::Base attr_boolean :contact_by_email, :display_real_name, :administrator end which would replace the hand written class User <

Is there any way to change the output of rake spec fails? The errors are just totally over the top ugly and not helpful. First of all the ruby -Ilib line always comes before each test and I find it distracting. But if an error occurs on something that is not nil it just gives me the entire contents of that object and that is no small matter when the object is a HTTP request response. Here is

Hello, I''m not sure if I''m missing something blindingly obvious here. All the relationships that Rails comes with assume 0..n, yes? It''s not a strict 1 to 1 or 1 to n because it''s optional. My question is this - What is the best way to implement a required relationship? For example, if I require that a comment is made by a user (a user has many

Hello all, I seem to have an annoying habit of realizing that I''ve asked a question with a blindingly obvious answer just after I''ve asked it but here goes. I''ve noticed that in my functional tests there''s the occasional reliance on the contents of the flash. For example, I have an action that confirms a users identity and may reject them because A)

Is there a way to ask the Route system what controller and action mapping will be used, given a hash containing :controller and :action? I am trying to generalize the case where there is a button bar (e.g. tabbed pages) having one image shown if you are presently visiting that page, and another shown if you are not presently visiting that page (e.g. an "active" and an

My rspec controller tests are appending POST params to the request_uri as though they are GET variables. So this line: post :create, :foo => ''bar'' Generates a request_uri that looks like this: my_restful_controller?foo=bar However when performing the same action from the actual application, the params are not appended to the request_uri (as expected). Looks like this

Hello all, There seems to be a bug in internet explorer 5 where a redirect causes the session to be lost. A controller says.... def login case @request.method when :post if @session[:user] = User.authenticate(@params [:user_login], @params[:user_password]) return redirect_to(:action=>''send_confirmation'') unless

Hello Folks, I am trying to use a standard sort of login controller, whereby you put a pre-filter on the pages on which you want the user to have to login. This is all well an good, except for one thing. Here is some code to save the original request uri before redirecting to the logon page. def authorize ... session[:original_uri] = request.request_uri logger.info("ApplicationController:

I wonder if there is a standard Rails way to redirect from an action back to a previously viewed page. As a quick fix I created two little methods in the controllers/application.rb. Does this seem like an ok way to go? Thanks, Peter class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base def i_was_here session[:i_was_here] = request.env[''REQUEST_URI''] end def

Hi, we''re seeing a really weird problem in our production environment. "Connection: Keep-Alive\r\n" is being pre-pended to the RAW_POST_DATA, which makes requests error out. This bug is seen infrequently and *seems* to be browser-related, although I can''t reproduce it using the browser reported in HTTP_USER_AGENT. Set up is a apache 2.2 -> hardware load balancer

i''m missing something here. how would I code this outside the application to be shared with other Camping apps? module Blog::Controllers module AuthenticationHelper def self.included(base) class << base define_method :authenticate do |*a| a.each do |meth| if method_defined?(meth.to_s)

I find manually accessing the router to be quite ugly below. Is there a more direct way to access it? module ApplicationHelper def menu_item text, url = nil routes = ActionController::Routing::Routes url = if url if url.is_a? String url else routes.generate url end else routes.generate :controller

I?m using the new 1.1 integration test facility? I?m trying to write a test that sees if a controller redirects to the correct place and preserves the query string. Here?s the code: class LoginRedirectTest < ActionController::IntegrationTest def test_non_admin_auth request_uri = "/datafeed/event/report?blah=blah" get(request_uri) follow_redirect!

Hi Friends, I am using Centos 5.2 and using ProxyPass to access applications running on other servers. Everything is working fine except for one of the applications I need to auto add forward slash when any user tries to access that application. For ex ProxyPass /testdiary http://testdiary.example.com/ ProxyPassReverse /testdiary http://testdiary.example.com/ If somebody
