similar to: Does ActiveRecord have support for "Boolean" columns?

Hello, there is a table that has a column TINYINT(1) called status. Through mysql console I see its value as 1 (when is true) but if I do this in Rails console: Mytable.status => true give me "true" rather "1". How could I change 1 to true using some method? Or true to 1? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are

So i had a boolean attribute in my model which gets interpreted to tinyint(1) in mysql by rails migrations. Now tinyint(1) accepts a range in mysql and i want to change my boolean attribute to an attribute which can accept 3 values(0,1,2). I made the change to the view and when i post the form selecting the selecting the value ''2'', it still gets saved as a ''0''.

http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/1117 I''ve attached a patch to ticket 1117 which fixes it so that booleans are escaped as booleans, not integers. Specifically, this situation will now work find_all(["send_date=? and sent=?", Date.today, false]) Which matches peoples expectations, but it causes some problems with the postgresql unit tests. Specifically, the use of

How do I check if an entry exists before saving? Someone one told me to use the method find_or_create (or something like that) but it didn''t work because I think the version of rails that we have is not the most recent. I need a way to check if an id exists in the db before saving. Any suggestions? Thank you -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Greetings made men of rails! I am presently writing a new database adapter for rails to bring the OpenBase community on board. In working through the rather extensive AR tests (which I very much appreciate), I have come across a question I can''t seem to answer on my own. In the test_has_many_with_piggyback(AssociationsJoinModel) the result is expected as a quoted integer

I am working on a RoR project that fetches some of its data out of an existing database. The database server is physically located in Florida. When Wilma went through there were problems, I''m not sure how much of it was server related or the network connections between Illinois and Florida. Long story short we are now looking at deploying a geographically seperate servers for both for the

this may seem silly but i just noticed that if in mysql the column which is a tinyint(1) happens 2 or greater, by a chance of glitch or corruption in the database(i did it manually ofcourse but i am speaking hypothetically), rails would see it as false. but i find that really wrong seeing how in mysql it sees any non-zeroes as true. i really think if it does happen to be any number other than 1

I am migrating to sql server 2000 from postgres and I have tried char(1), int, tinyint and bit datatypes to replace booleans, but without luck. the 1''s and 0''s are stored properly in the db, but checkboxes and dropdowns are not being auto-populated in rails. Anyone experience this before? thanx -- View this message in context:

Hi, Anyone got any cool tricks for converting a Rails site (in this case, a typo installation) from a mysql database to a postgresql database? I''ve got it almost working -- I''m doing a SQL dump from mysql and loading it into postgres. However, mysql does booleans as a tinyint with 0 = false and 1 = true. When I try to import that into a postgres database that expects booleans

Hey all I've been running a Dovecot 1X server for awhile. Most of the config was pretty simple using flat files. I'm switching to Dovecot 2X now, and want to switch to using SQL for lookups so I can share info with the Postfix front end. For starters I setup two SIMPLE SQL tables -- a 'users' table and a 'aliases' table, where each user can have many aliases. I want to

I must be missing something obvious here but I cannot seem to see it. I have this step definition: When /entity named "(.*)" has a legal name "(.*)"/ do |name, legal| myentity = Entity.find_by_entity_common_name!(name.hll_keycase) myentity.entity_legal_name.should equal legal.hll_keycase end Which fails with this: And the entity named "Myuser" has a legal

Hi, I''ve a boolean database field (tinyint(1)) wich allows nulls. Then, I''ve something like this: radio_button(''server'',''customer_has_login'',"NULL") radio_button(''server'',''customer_has_login'',true) radio_button(''server'',''customer_has_login'',false) The problem is

Sorry, but this is really NOT as easy as the tutorials/books make out. I''m really struggling at the first hurdle here. And while I''m not a programmer by design I do know my way around most stuff. And if I can''t get this to work I suspect more people will have the same issues. There seems to be too many variables to address. I have winXP, I have ruby and rails all

I''m working on a cost estimation tool, that allows each estimate created to override base assumptions of price, cost, etc. Everything was fine, until we said, "Let''s add a ''target net revenue'' property." So, the resource model got a "target" column. The override model got a "new_target" column. But, whenever I set

Hi everyone, I''m working on a new rails project and have to build it on top of a legacy oracle database. I''m trying to figure out how to get the number value from a NUMBER(1) datatype. So far I''m only getting a "true" value for 1 and "false" for any other number. From the console I can print out my object values and can see that there are number

Hi!

I''ve been reading the tutorial and I have problems with the TinyInt(1) for the attribute "item.done". I thought this thread would be the best to post it. I''m using Rails 1.1.14.
