I have three models in this small game I''m working on - the Game, Players, and Turns. A Player should be able to rescue another Player on any given turn. So it looks like this: class Game has_many :players has_many :turns def rescue_player(p) t = turns.last t.rescued = p t.save end end class Turn belongs_to :rescued, :foreign_key =>

Hi all, I''m trying to pass more than one parameters using link_to_remote, but I''m getting a behaviour that seems quite strange to me. Here''s the code: link_to_remote ''some text'', :update => ''form'', :method => ''get'', :url => { :action =>

For those that missed out joining the amazing turnout of ~70 people here in Vancouver for the mini-workshop I did on the 27th last month, I am making available the 30 slides I used for the presentation. The slides were used in conjunction with me demonstrating it via command line. Alot was learned by both attendees, and quite possibly even more so by myself while teaching the material. I created

All, I am looking to write an ecommerce application and debating using rails or struts. Any advice as to which path to follow.

I was writing my blob at http://railsblob.blogspot.com/ which is for new people who are new to Rubby and I was learning if Mongril or Lighthttttp? or Web Rick is better for me. Have you any advice. Thanks? Rails Blobber -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I am trying to teach my models how to render themselves, i.e. <%= my_model_object.render() %> Let me explain my reasoning and proposed method before this gets shot down as anti-MVC. Let''s say I am writing a contact-management application. I have a class Contact. I will need to display this class all over the application. My first choice is to use a partial. Now I can

Hi, Is the development of Rails Cron still active? most of the blog articles about it are unavailable and it hasn''t been updated for a long time. -- Abdur-Rahman Advany http://blog.railsdevelopment.com/

160,000 pages 99% static, only minor stuff done in rail (search, contact us, etc.) windows server 2003 Ror 1.0 Currently 30K Hits /day on IIS. Apache or Lighttp? Fast_CGI seems kinda slow with a 2003/Apache configuration. The only thing I''ll get rid of for sure is IIS. -Cedric -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is there a way to tweak rails 1.0 or 1.1-rc1 to use less RAM? I''m using a VPS (Linux UML) with < 160 MB RAM and would like to explore ways to make rails run more efficiently under such constraints. Are there articles/tips about this or do I need to look into this from scratch? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I finally got around to upgrading from 0.8.2 (!!). I had a spec which looked like specify "should render abc123" do controller.should_render :text => "abc123" get :key end With 1.0.0, the new spec is it "should render abc123" do get :key response.should render_text("abc123") end However it doesn''t work, giving me the error: undefined

I''m trying to spec a dead simple "show non-existent record should render 404" case, but it seems the RecordNotFound exception is making it impossible for some reason. #controller def show @event = Event.find(params[:id]) end #spec - pretty much straight from the rspec site before do Event.stub!(:find) get :show, :id => ''broken'' end #

I currently have a fairly simple Rails application running on FreeBSD under Apache 1.3 and normal CGI, and the performance I''m getting is alarmingly poor. I realize CGI or WebBrick are quite a bit slower than FastCGI, and I''ll probably use one of those instead when I have the time. However, I''m just curious if CGI is really supposed to be that slow, or if

Does anyone know how long it will be until Dreamhost get''s the Rails 1.1 install running correctly? My site has been down since last night at about 7:00 pm (I think). It''s annoying, and are a lot of others having this problem too? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''ve got enough models now that I''d like to separate them into modules. For example, I have the class Player that I want to stick in the Trainer module. I''ve changed the definition to class Trainer::Player I''ve created a models/trainer dir, test/unit/trainer, and test/fixtures/trainer. Change the PlayerTest class to be Trainer::PlayerTest. I get the

I''ve got the following expectation: response.should redirect_to(:action => "new", :video_id => "1", :process_id => "2", :origin_id => "3") that fails with this error message: expected redirect to {:video_id=>"1", :process_id=>"2", :origin_id=>"3", :action=>"new"}, got redirect to

I''m trying to use composed_of within my model. I have a field in my database named ''card1'', which is simply a string. I have this in my model class Player < ActiveRecord::Base composed_of :card1, :class_name => ''Card'' end class Card attr_reader :value, :suit def initialize(s) @value = s[0].chr @suit = s[1].chr end end The

I''ve added a method to the mock class that makes it pretty easy to stub associations in rails. I''ve been using it for awhile and it seems to cut down on a lot of setup code for the controller and model specs that use associations. #before @person = mock_model(Person) posts = mock(''post_proxy'') posts.stub!(:build).and_return(mock_model(Post, :save => true))

I''ve got switchtower set up, and it seems to work fine except for one problem: It doesn''t successfully restart lighttpd.

I''ve just started creating a web application with approx. 100 tables. Possibly more. Oracle is the DB. There exists a legacy schema I that i will use some of. So far i have created a small bit of the app, approx 10 tables. Im using webrick on my local machine. The Oracle DB is on its own server. My boss has noticed that its not really that zippy, there is a small delay between
