Is there any project or solution for an easy integration of a WFE / WfMS into rails? I''m quite new to this topic, but I probably need a small subset of workflow patterns (or whatever the correct term is) only. Any pointers are welcome. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, Can anyone spot why the below doesn''t work? * I have a "created_by" column in my create table in the dB * I have a "before_create" line, which definitely gets called * I tried a few different ways to set the "created_by" attribute in the model but it doesn''t seem to work, i.e. doesn''t appear in the database

DB field names: If I have a table that references 2 or more separate users from my users table, is there a recommended naming convention for this situation? In my case, I have 3 users associated with a record in my projects table: requester_user_id created_by updated_by I could name one of them "user_id", and then projects.user would work I guess, but wouldn''t work

I''ve got a polymorphic association on one table. I assign to it in the controller. This is handling invitations of users to tasks in a task management application. If the user issuing the invitation is the user being invited (ie the user assigned themselves to a task), I want to activate the invitation immediately in the model. The trouble is that this: if self.assignable ==

I have a model with a belongs_to association. The first model is called Thing and the associated model is User. I''m attempting to assign the user to the thing. To accomplish this I used a before_save method, like this: class Thing < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :created_by, :class_name => "User", :foreign_key => "created_by_user_id" def before_create

Hi, I want to automate somewhat the addition of created_by/updated_by fields on my models (i.e. to include username). What''s the best/recommended way to do this? Would it be to: a) Find out how to extend the ActiveRecord::Base itself (I haven''t extended a class before yet) b) Use a plugin type approach where you have to add a tag manually to each model file which then

okay... i have two models employee - id - username order - id - number - created_by - approved_by now created_by and approved_by are both id''s of employees. in most cases, two different employees. currently i do something like //controller @open_orders = Order.open_orders //model def self.open_orders find(:all, :conditions => [''is_open = ?'', true],

Hi All, I''m a bit stumped. All I''m trying to do is format a date and I get an error. Details below. I have a partial to list all "notes" associated with a "client" with the following code. <% for note in @client.notes %> <hr /> <%=h note.note_text %> Posted on <%=h note.created_at.strftime("%I:%M") %> by <%=h

My question is this - What is the best way to implement a required relationship? For example, if I require that a comment is made by a user (a user has many

Hi guys, I tried reading up the RSPEC Book (Dec 2010) and googled a bit but I could not find anything. I''m using Rspec2.

So I''m trying to do a find with an order by specific column values thing, but some of the columns are attributes through associations. So I did some eager loading with the :include option to try and access the attributes of the object I''m doing the find on. Stuff has been blowing up on me so far. Here''s the code in the controller right now: sort_by = params[:sort_by]

I thought I had a handle on this one but it''s causing me grief and I''m hoping somebody can set me straight. I have an object AlertTemplate which will contain a fill in the blank style hunk of web content.
