Hi, I''ve just downloaded the acts_as_authenticated plugin but I can''t find much in the way of documentation. First is there anywhere that someone could point me to to get a handle on this. Second.. Does the plugin still require the use of generators to use? Thanx in advance Dan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi there, I''d like to know if there is a solution to the scenario when using acts_as_authenticated and ajax: I have an action in my controller which is protected by login via acts_as_authenticated. Now, this action can be called both by human interaction, as well as ajax requests. (It is an add to cart link). It works great as long as I am in an authenticated session. Now, I want to

Hello, Just thought it could be interesting for some of you. I''ve written rspecs for acts_as_authenticated plugin. http://rashkovskii.com/articles/2007/01/01/rspec-on-rails- acts_as_authenticated I''m not sure they are 100% ok, but they seem to be :) Thank you, Yurii.

First off, I''d like to address that I''m n00bs. I''ve read the README and blogs associated with this plugin, and there really isn''t too much documentation. I have the newest version of rails,ruby, and acts_as_authenticated installed. #The setup I set up the acts_as_authenticated in the following manner. *created a table called "accounts" in the

Hi! I recently started with RoR and this may be a newbie question. I have a company table, employee table and transactions table. 1 company has many employees. Each employee performs many transactions. Employees from different companies LOGIN to the system to record their transactions. Employees can search on all transactions associated to their companies (indirect relationship via employee),

Anyone know how to stub Kernel#open? I''m trying to mock/stub an open-uri call, but it doesn''t seem to like it. Here''s the test code, and the failures: body = File.open(File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../fixtures/google_search_california.html'').read

Hi there I''m having trouble getting the ''remember me'' functionality going in acts_as_authenticated. The issue seems to be that the login_from_cookie method is using only the first 60 characters of the remember_token string in the database, whereas the string in the db is 75 characters long. I can see in my dev log that login_from_cookie is trying to find the user but

Sorry for the newbie question. I''d like to check out the Acts_as_authenticated plugin but have no idea how to conveniently set up the User Table in Mysql. I use a mac OSX, but how do I change the following code into a DB schema? def self.up create_table "add_authenticated_tables", :force => true do |t| t.column "login", :string, :limit =>

Just a question and an FYI I just installed rails and acts_as_authenticated and was setting up a site. Everything works fine except that in the AccountController that I generated the calls to the routine redirect_back_or_default don''t work because the call just before it to reset_session clears the session[:return_to] that the method uses to set where it will redirect. I ended up adding

Hi all, I''m running into this frustrating issue with the acts_as_authenticated plugin and one of the additional fields I added to the users table. I have added a column ''account_type'' to the users table (among several others) which denotes the type of account it is. This stores an integer value that is set by the system during account creation. The value is getting set

Right now I''m working on adding tests to a method that looks like this: def get_via_redirect(path, args={}) get path, args follow_redirect! while redirect? status end So, I want to confirm that get is called and that status is returned but I also want to see that when the value of redirect? effects how many times follow_redirect is called. Is there

I''m pushing a major overhaul in testing the Rails codebase. Mocha and stubba make my life easy so that''s what I''m using. The first major patch using them is in RailTies (http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/5970) now. I spoke to DHH today about using it in the other libraries and I think it''ll be ok, but they really want to include as little code as needed. I

hi the strangest thing is happening. on my local machine acts_as_authenticated works fine, but whe on the server [dreamhost] it refuses to log in. no error messages. nothing. just reloads the login page again. here`s my action: def login return unless request.post? flash[:notice] = "Incorrent login" self.current_user = User.authenticate(params[:login], params[:password])

I just upgraded to edge rails so I can use the BigDecimal support for monetary calculations. I''ve just come across the following problem.. Right now, I''ve got a content controller which is responsible for updating much of my site''s content. I''ve decided to make this a subclass of Admin, so I can organize my administrative related controllers into their own

If you missed it, I''ve written a plugin for testing RJS that uses (basically) the same syntax as the RJS templates themselves. Here''s a taste: assert_rjs :alert, ''Hi!'' assert_rjs :assign, ''a'', ''2'' assert_rjs :call, ''foo'', ''bar'', ''baz'' assert_rjs :draggable,

Hi All, I am following the useful Migrations tutorial found on this page: http://glu.ttono.us/articles/2005/10/27/the-joy-of-migrations However, when I try to rollback the database schema to version 1 using this command: rake migrate VERSION=1 I get the following error: undefined method `to_str'' for {:noop=>false, :verbose=>true}:Hash I just upgraded to Rails 1.1.0... not
