I intend to release a project I wrote with Rails. What is the right licensing scheme for a web application (content managing system) which could grow with plugins and add-ons ? Personally, I would prefer the GPL but does that mean any add-on to the CMS (like task management) will have to be GPL ? If some people contribute to the code could it still be double-licenced so that the people who

Hey All, First off, congratulations to David and the others who worked on the 0.3.4 release and Happy Thanksgiving!

I am looking for a wsyiwyg html editor for note taking as I build up a system to note what I am doing. I typically just use gedit, but this system's notes are getting complex, and using code tabs, lists, and the like would make it more enduring. I am looking at lonote on my F17 notebook, but I would like to do the note taking directly on the Centos system. Just basic html. Image

I have just open sourced my Content Management System called Seymore. Rather than having a separate administration section for managing content, content management functions are available throughout the site so users are able to contextually and comfortably manage the content. I am looking for any and all feedback. Please, either checkout the latest source from subversion, grab version 0.1 from

Hi, I have this scenario. I have the full path of a page stored in the database (column ''path'').

Hey guys RoR evangelists keep telling us that they have the #1 framework for developing webapps. OK, but show us something that works and is useful to many people out there. I could be wrong, but it doesn''t seem as if there is anything that qualifies, as yet? So I''ve got a little challenge for you: come up with a decent plugin WYSIWYG visual editor for CMS. There are several

Hello ! I posted a simple template to show how to add ''act_as_whatever'' to ActiveRecord. I think this might be useful to others as there are some trickery ruby things in this file.

Dear List, I am writing a paper in Hungarian, that I Sweave and than pdfLaTeX. Everything is fine, except for two accented letters in the graphs that behave strange, though on the screen and in eps exports they look perfect. The problem is that I need pdf graphs, since I would like to have a PDF after LaTeX-ing. For the example below I downloaded the following two font sets: 1. Latin Modern

Hi all, Is there a way to create pagination with a complex SQL, more complex than the :conditions option will support? I have two databases, houses and images. Houses has_many images, and each Image belongs_to house. I''m creating a search engine for the house records and I''d like to be able to filter out all the houses without any associated images. So far I''m

Can someone tell if there is a reason models shouldn''t access the session? Models could easily be made to access the session or some other shared persistant data store such as a file or a table. _This is the problem_, a model needs to know certain information eg. the id of the current user. But the model has no idea about anything outside of its self, because it can''t access

I have some embedded tables that form different sections of a view. I find that I use the same look for certain ones which means I have to duplicate the same exact table for each section that''s similar. Is there a way to do.. hmm.. well.. kind of like what a layout does using @content_for_layout, but for a partial. Does that make any sense whatsoever? :) OK so here''s some

I am running Rails 1.10 and wanted to check out the RJS templates. Rails doesn''t seem to find them. I did issue the rake comment update_javascripts and that did not correct the problem. RJS is part of 1.1 right? Any ideas? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi there, I have been working on Rails applications for sometime and lately trying my hands on beautification of the same. Now the problem that I am facing in here is whatever design or layout I try to apply to a particular application is visible to the rest of the applications also! I mean...I am not able to apply different designs to different applications. If anybody could help. Thankyou. --

I''m fairly new to Rails, and I''ve been learning from AGILE WEB DEVELOPMENT WITH RAILS. Everything has been going smoothly until the chapter on Unit Testing, where I''m getting some strange errors. I''m up to page 141 in the Agile book, and attempting to run the test program containing the method test_read_with_hash. The previous tests work properly, but I

Hi All, Couple easy questions: 1. How do I view what environment my app is running under (i.e production / testing / development) - I''m not sure what RAILS_ENV is set at, how to I take a look at it? 2. Somehow (?) I have turned logging "off". I''d like to have it back on :s I have files called production.log, test.log, server.log, development.log in /myapp/log/ but

Hi all- I just decided to move from my 1.1.0 to 1.1.2. I had previously frozen to 1.1.0 and therefore had all of rails in SVN in my vendor directory. When I finally got rake freeze_gems to work, it blasted (rm -rf) my vendor/rails directory and put a new one in there. This also blasted all my .svn directories. Is there some convenient way to do a freeze upgrade and play well with SVN?
