similar to: Model class conditional on ENV["RAILS_ENV"] == "test"

Hello all! I''m having an issue with Observers, and I''m hoping someone knows the answer. Here is the definition: app/models/vehicle_observer.rb > class VehicleObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer > def after_save(vehicle) > breakpoint > if vehicle.has_new_mil_indication? > UserMailer.deliver_mil_notice(vehicle) > end > end > end

I have the following code in my index.rhtml: <div id="how_many_images" style="background-color:#eee;"> <%= render(:partial => ''form'') %></div> ...and the following in my _form.rhtml <%= form_remote_tag(:update => "images_div_main", :url => { :action =>

I''m testing to see if two objects are equal. One is accessed directly from the fixture, and the other is accessed through a relationship. Here''s the test: def test_hero assert_equal players(:hero), hands(:first).hero end Anyway, the values are exactly the same as far as I can tell. The only difference is the object id, but Ruby compares the values, right? This just

Hello, I want to put my app in production mode. So I write this line in environment.rb : ENV[''RAILS_ENV''] = "production" I restart webrick. If I write <%= ENV.inspect %> I have the correct "RAILS_ENV"=>"production" But browse my site and look the log, the development.log is still growing and the production.log stay to 0 ko

Dave, on another topic, might I recommend that you and DHH publish an updated version of the Agile guide right away when 1.1 comes out? You could reuse much of your material and it would do a lot of good to help make sure there is still a good centralized source of reference for Rails. Without that book, there really is not a good one-stop source of information for people to learn how to use

I''m trying to use counter_cache, but I''m not doing something right. It is unreliable and I keep having to correct it manually. Is there a good tutorial or reference on how to use it on-line? I have the AWDR book, but I need something more complete. TIA, Jeffrey

Hi, I''m desperate, so I thought I''d try one more time in the hopes of getting a different audience. Basically. it boils down to this. Using CGI, the ENV hash is populated and is accessible from a model script. Using FastCGI, the ENV hash is empty. Can anyone explain how I can fix this?

Hello, I''m working through the tutorial, and I''ve run into a little snag. In the first part of the tutorial, the destroy link is not working correctly. I can''t figure out where I goofed. Removing :confirm doesn''t seem to resolve the issue. Thanks, Randy. development.log ----->8----- Processing AdminController#destroy (for 127.0.0.1 at 2006-04-27

Hi Everyone, I''m trying to formulate my thoughts on how views work in RoR and I understand the basic bits - 1. Every controller has its own view defined using rhtml files in the views/[controller_name] folder. 2. There is one "view" file (rhtml) for every in the controller and has the same name as the method. 3. For portions that are common, partials can be used - file

Hi, I''m trying to follow the "AWDR" example of storing certain types of numbers (in my case, percentages not money) as integers in the database. I understand from the Depot application how to format the output to have 2 places (or n places for that matter) decimal. Now, I"m wondering about the input. It''s more natural for people to enter numbers as

I am writting a web service for authenitcation of users and was using web_service_scaffold :invoke for testing it out...and was able to consume it using .NET. But my question is, whats the simplest method using which i can use the same web service in the current Web App. I mean, not from an external application or something but from the current web apps itself. I found one method in AWDR, and

I''m working through the Agile Depot example I have no idea what I did, but when I try and delete something from the web page I get this error on the log.

So far I''ve been doing my controller testing against "real" (testing) objects; however, I''ve been beginning to wonder if I should "default" to using mocks in most cases -- both for performence and to enforce a looser coupling. In part this is driven by my viewpoint that rail''s "functional" tests are still "unit" tests, so they

I have a User class with a field called admin which is a boolean that determines if the user is or is not an administrator. I want to make it impossible for the last administrator for an account to be removed from the system. I need to protect against this both when deleting a user and when editing a user as you can revoke a user''s administrator privileges via a form. User

Is there a difference in the way that params[] and @params[] are handled? Is the ''handling'' done by Ruby or Rails? A pointer to the relevant documentation would be sincerely appreciated. Or just an answer would be ok too ;-) Thanks, Bill -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

How are you guys handling threads or server processes that have to, for example, process the data in your application on a periodic basis? Cron jobs can do it and then run on the database. But, are there ways to launch threads within the rails application itself. I have heard of WebBrick ways, but I am working with lighttpd, fastcgi? (textdrive if you are really interested).

I''ve got a couple apps that I use (billing app, support ticket app, some other custom apps) that I want to integrate into one site. They will all use the same layout for the most part, and will link between each other. When I initially thought of doing this, I figured if I put the apps at different roots - /billing /support etc - then the links wouldn''t work at all, because

does anyone know of a way to make the date_helper deal with mysql dates with 00 values in them? I have lots of dates that are like the following: 2005-04-00 2005-00-00 and I need to set null values in a date_select for elements that are 00. These are valid dates in mysql. In the absence of an immediate solution to the above, I''ve been trying to find out how InstanceTag.new works so I can

hi, can''t find any good tutorial or advice to deal with the creation of a new record and it''s associated objects within the same page. do i have to use ajax just to add custom form fields that will be handled by the controller for associated objects creation.? do i have to use ajax to add associated objects to the unsaved but allready in session parent object? what''s
