What does everyone on this list think about enhancing scaffolding somehow so that a "has_many" relationship will automatically drop the <select> box into the view to reference the "belongs_to" part of the view? I think scaffolding is great but I am always adding the <select> boxes to reference the parent association. Do you think this would be useful? just a

Hi, I would like to know if there is a way to maintain database reflection for the ''new'' and ''edit'' views whilst removing scaffolding? I''m trying to create a webapp that will be somewhat maintainable by colleagues (that aren''t necessarily web developers) through simple manipulation of db table fields. For example to add another field to the

Hello, i''m new in ruby rails framework. I have the following problem. I try to create a scaffold for a certain model of my db, but since ruby rails doesn''t assume the table name corectly (its incidents_reported ) i get errors .... Besides renaming the table :) is there a way to ''tell'' ruby rails the name of the table? I haven''t been able to find any

Hello list, For a school management application, I''ve got three tables: - people - subjects - roles (e.g. ''Teacher'', ''Student'', ''Tutor'', ''Lecturer'', ...) The HABTM relationship is 3-way, with the links being stored in the people_roles_subjects table. A person can have a role in a subject, but may have different

Hi All, I''m looking for a quality scaffolding plugin. So far I''ve discovered DryScaffolding and Streamlined. DryScaffolding doesn''t truly support Rails 1.2.2 so I dropped that. Streamlined works, but is full of quirks (e.g. many-to-many relationships not cascade updating correctly, etc). Can anyone suggest a quality scaffolding plugin/ generator/framework that

All, When I generate scaffolding on my model, it doesn''t display all the fields in the create and edit views. It populates the views with text/char and date types, but omits any integer fields. Is this normal behavior or a bug? Thanks! -Nick

Like with simple table editing, there are also typical ways of how a user usually interacts with one-to-many or many-to-many relations. For example, one would show the fields of one row of table1 in the screen and below a line-by-line view of all associated entries in table2. Then, one could press an "Edit" button and add or delete rows from table2 to this entry of table1,

hi guys, I am having problems after scaffolding I created a db called "requests" and when i tried to execute the command script/generate scaffold request It gave me an error please make sure you have a database request created before you do this The db is obviously created; rails cant access it... so I tried to hack i copied my view model and controller files from my local deployment to

Hello all, I''m working on a couple of Rails projects at the moment and have noticed something that seems to go against the DRY principal. Why, when scaffolding, are individual CRUD rhtml files created instead of using one as a partial and having the others use that single partial? This especially applies to the list rhtml. I am about to get to the other operations and see how feasible

When using ruby to generate scaffolding, is there an easy way to add features that would be useful for keeping track of has_many and belongs_to relations? For example, suppose I have the following: Users Sites Pages Modules Each user has many pages, each site has many pages, each page has many modules, and also the belongs_to relation holds in the opposite order. I''m using the

I am having trouble generating some of my scaffolding. I''m trying to use PostgreSQL as my back-end. Some of my scaffolding generates with no problem but for other parts I get this: Before updating scaffolding from new DB schema, try creating a table for your model The tables do exist. At least I can see them from psql. Here is the SQL I''m using to create my tables: CREATE

Hey all, I''m just starting in rails and am working on my first app. I need to do inline editing for 2-15 rows of data on a page. I found Ajax Scaffolding here: http://www.ajaxscaffold.com/ And it is EXACTLY what I want in my app. But I''ve also been trying to read a bit up on RJS Templates. Are they basically the same things except RJS is built into rails or is the

Hi, I''m going through the Depot tutorial in the book "Agile Web Development with Rails" and I can''t even get past the very first step. I''m getting the following error: "Before updating scaffolding from new DB schema, try creating a table for your model (Product)" when I try to run "ruby script/generate scaffold Product Admin.

I notice that I begin each project with a standard css file which is the one produced by scaffolding PLUS some other stuff. I could cut and paste a copy from an old project but I thought it would be "cooler" amongst other things (like more efficient) to just have the scaffold.css file be created for me. Is it possible? Is it safe(ish), What would I have to do? Thanks in

Hi, first of all I will apologize in advance for my presumably noobish question, but I''m only starting to learn Rails and am a little confused with all the changes in 2.0.1. There are as good as no tutorials out yet and the 2 or 3 screencasts I''ve seen deal with the creation of both the app and the database. Now my problem is that I already have a database with a fair amount of
