Ahoy, I checked the API and did some forum searches but didn''t find anything good on table sorting. Is there a "railish" way to do this? My current method really is lacking (i''m on like rails day 2) <th><%= link_to ''Name'', :action => ''list'', :order => ''name'' %></th>

Hi everyone, I''m a rails & ruby nuby, and this is my first post to the list. Here''s my environment in case it helps diagnose my problem: Ruby version 1.8.4 (powerpc-darwin8.6.0) RubyGems version 0.8.11 Rails version 1.1.2 Active Record version 1.14.2 Action Pack version 1.12.1 Action Web Service version 1.1.2 Action Mailer version 1.2.1 Active Support version 1.3.1 I did

Like with simple table editing, there are also typical ways of how a user usually interacts with one-to-many or many-to-many relations. For example, one would show the fields of one row of table1 in the screen and below a line-by-line view of all associated entries in table2. Then, one could press an "Edit" button and add or delete rows from table2 to this entry of table1,

Hi all, I''m new to rails after having used perl for most of these things, and am trying to get my head around the generate script for a project playing around with. If I do: ./scripts/generate controller Device I get app/controllers/device_controller.rb where I can then add: scaffold :device However, if I want to actually generate the scaffolding so I can make some changes:

How do I get scaffold to generate code for a table whos name is not plural of the modelname I give to it.

Ahoy, So i''ve installed the acts_as_taggable module and everything is fine, but i''m a bit confused about this bit of code described in the API "photo = Photo.new # splits and adds to the tags collection photo.tag "wine beer alcohol" # don''t need to split since it''s an array, but replaces the tags collection # trailing and leading

Preface: I''m trying to find my way through the "Build Your Own Ruby on Rails Web Application" book. I''m completely new to programming and am having a hard time figuring out the differences between rails 2.0.2 and what''s in the book so please forgive me if this is a stupid question. I''m confused because I finally thought I''d figured out the

hi everyone. I am learning RoR and just recently purchase the agile wed dev on rails. i am still at the beginning of the book trying to create the scaffold for the depot_development database. Everytime i run the generate scaffold products admin, i recieve the "before building the scaffold, try to create a table for model products" etc... a few questions: 1. How does ruby know that

I have an archive that can have 0 or more extra files associated with it. I would like to be able to edit the associated files info on the same page as the archive info. Listing the extra files info to the edit form is simple enough, but How do I form the text input fields for easy (or automatic) pick-up in the update? Or am I barking up the wrong tree here? -- Posted via

People, In the cookbook eg, categories has_many recipes but in a book eg, book has_one description - doesn''t that mean that the id of the description should be the same as the id of the book (instead of having it''s own "description_id" in the book table?

I''m doing very well with the Hibbs Rolling on Rails tutorial. I have an easy question for my personal notes. I''m coming up with a simple framework of steps for creating a basic database. It includes the following maxims to make original app creation easy: app_name = MySQL database name SQL_tablename = model_name model_name = controller-name Is this going to work for getting

Ahoy, I tried to install hieraki and it was a big mess. 1) upload_progress module needed to be installed 2) no test/development server configured in the config file so i had to add those 3) no log directory, had to add that 4) had to install 2 gems (ok fine) 5) once the server started, go to homepage and " NameError in Wiki/pageController#index uninitialized constant Node RAILS_ROOT:

Hello all, I''m working on a couple of Rails projects at the moment and have noticed something that seems to go against the DRY principal. Why, when scaffolding, are individual CRUD rhtml files created instead of using one as a partial and having the others use that single partial? This especially applies to the list rhtml. I am about to get to the other operations and see how feasible

I went through a tutorial at http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/01/20/rails.html?page=1 to get started with RoR. I really like the idea of the scaffold construct, but I can''t seem to get it to work the way it was described in the tutorial. I''ve got a mysql database that is properly configured, and a table called ''quotes'' with a column called

I haven''t updated rails today and all of a sudden scaffold is pluralizing my names ruby script/generate scaffold Admin::Category produces class Admin::CategoriesController < ApplicationController Do I really want "CategoriesController" instead of "CategoryController"? Thanks, Peter

I''m new to Ruby on Rails and just trying to get it up and running. I''m using RadRails, but I don''t think that matters for this problem. I''ve got a very basic app with one table and I used the scaffold generator for a table called datedgoals. The new page works fine, but then when it switches over to the list page, I get the errors below. Any idea how to fix

I''m trying to use new_equipment_path, which creates the appropriate link. But, when trying to evaluate "equipment/new" I get the error below. I''ve included my routes (rake route). Equipment is one of those words that pluralizes to "equipment", so the singular is right (from what I know from this forum. Any help would be appreciated. Error: equipment_url

Is there any reason that foreign key fields do not show in any of the scaffold views ? project table: id serial primary key, category_id integer, user_id integer, name varchar, morestuff varchar foreign key (category_id) references categories(id), foreign key (user_id) references users(id) scaffold generated views only show name, morestuff fields

Is there a reason why modularizing your controllers doesn''t work? I tried the following: ruby script/generate scaffold Admin::Bug But it just won''t work. I get a routing error when trying to access /admin/bugs/ : Recognition failed for "/admin/bugs/" P.S. If I create the model/controller individually it still doesn''t seem to work. A bit of help
