similar to: Dynamic Scaffolding vs. ScaffoldGenerator

I''m trying to get data in rows instead of columns by default. The default scaffold behavior is to create an initial table layout with column headers along the top. In some cases this creates really wide tables which require horizontal scrolling. Is there a parameter I can use with scaffolding or a hack to get the header cells along the left side of the table instead? I''m

I''m trying to call the postback generator on rails 0.9.5. I''ve installed the postback tarball into gems/1.8/gems/rails-0.9.5/generators/postback as it seems like it is supposed to be. At least, I installed the login generator the same way and it works. But when I try to run it, I get this: [carl@e236014 test]$ ruby script/generate postback

After I downloaded this plugin, I am not sure how to use it. According the doc: Generally, the scaffolding extensions are used in same way as the normal scaffolding. Inside a controller, run the command: scaffold :album But I tried to run scaffold :control_name, (I have table in the database) in the app/controller, the system says " scaffold: command not found" Suggestion? Thanks in

Now that were designing are controllers to just be CRUD, scaffolding makes a lot of sense (DHH must of had this planed from the beginning). The current scaffolding should be modified to better fit Resources. Scaffolding doesn''t need to be redone, it just needs a few tweaks. I''ve already started converting the scaffold method. I made a plugin, but it still needs some work.

Hello all, I am a bit hung up. I have created a simple table (pluralized) named aircrews and I have edited my database.yml file to point to the database that I created and that is holding the table aircrews. I have gone through the depot tutorial in the Agile book and when I have run the scaffolding command for the depot app all has worked fine for the table products. Now when I run the ruby

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 have a table

I''m creating a photo blog with ror. The front end has gone great, so now I''m working on the back end, and was playing with scaffolding. I generated these scaffolds: ruby script/generate scaffold Photo admin/photo ruby script/generate scaffold Camera admin/camera Then, in my routes, I added this line: map.connect ''/admin'',

Allo, Just started playing around with RoR/scaffolding and have been impressed so far. However, it seems to create a 1:1 relationship between Controllers and Models and the basic CRUD actions -- I need to CRUD two models from the same views and actions. I have: Book model Book controller, with create/edit/show/destroy/list actions and the scaffold-gen''ed views. Category model Category

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

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

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 trying to generate some scaffolding using "ruby script/generate scaffold order order". It always fails with the message "uninitialized constant CHARACTER_SET". I have an orders table in a Firebird databse called TARPRILOGISTICS.GDB. The database is in a folder named "database" in my rails app root folder. I tried FireRuby 0.4 and 0.4.1. My config file looks

I just got Oracle connectivity working on my Mac rails installation, and I started with a simple migration to test. def self.up create_table "computers", :force => true do |t| t.column "description", :string t.column "brand", :string end end def self.down drop_table "computers" end end This seemed to work, but when I

Hi, is there a way to scaffold with namespace? I''d like to generate a Posts model with namespace admin. But using script/generate scaffold admin/post title:string the migration would generate a table "admin_posts". So I did now script/generate scaffold post title:string moved the controller, views manually to admin/... and had to change each link manually from (e.g.)

I''ve updated the Scaffolding Extensions Plugin[1] recently to add a couple new features: 1) Scaffold all models and associations with one command 2) Show all associated objects on the edit page Example of usage: In an existing Rails application, create a controller (i.e. "script/generate controller crud"), and modify so it looks like: class CrudController <

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, Is is possible to add this constraint: "null => false" and "limit => 45" like below: create_table :movie do |t| t.string :name, :null => false, :limit => 45 end ...just by using this kind of scaffold command (on Rails 2)? $ ruby script/generate scaffold Movie name:string Thanks, D. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi Everyone, I built a scaffold and I''m having trouble getting results properly formatted. (I need to get the data into multiple columns instead of just one big column) I can''t get all of my CSS to work properly in scaffold.css, layout/books.rhtml, or the books/index.rhtml.erb Anyways, maybe you have a suggestion. Default view (127.0.0.1:3000/books) Title Abstract

It occurs to me as a missing feature that there''s no way to indicate a lookup table relationship (as opposed to other sorts of foreign key relationships) in Rails and that the scaffolding generator could recognise this lookup and render a drop-down list automagically for the lookup table. Say you have an Address and a State, and the State is a lookup table. In addresses you have
