There was some discussion on this list recently about doing .rcss templates in Rails using a custom template handler. I''ve come up with a very simple way to support rcss without a handler. Turns out all it takes is a route and an action that calls render(:file...). I put a full write-up on my blog earlier today:

I''ve been reading about ActiveRecord::Callbacks and they''re really cool. But I have a complex need I''m not sure they answer. Let''s say we have a User model. User has a #status attribute, which can be either "active", "closed" or "blocked". I want to set a callback to perform an action if an "active" User has been

Hi all -- The simple question is: How do I set different validations for the same Model, when accessed in different Controllers? Here''s the scenario: I have a store/cart app, with a customer-facing shopping cart, and a typical Admin side. The Admin side also has an Order Entry component, where our staff can enter orders received by fax, telephone, etc. Both the customer-facing cart

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/.

I am running the webrick server (/script/server) and I would like to be able to view the application from any browser. However, I can only see my application from a browser opened up on the localhost. When I use any other browser it times out. I have already modified the following line in the /script/server file (I''ve tried the numeric ip address also) so that it is the real ip

Anyone think it''d be useful to make a WriteBoard type application that supported ruby, html, etc. and allowed programmers to collaborate on writing scripts or just code in general and track each others changes? Just a thought. - Jim

would it be possible to get another beta gem posted for switchtower? core rails has been getting nice regular updates to the beta gems, but switchtower is still back at 1962.

We are building a web-based application with Ruby on Rails and MySQL backend. The client now wants us to add various workflow features that will eventually expand into SOAP web services. These workflow features include tasks such as automatically sending reminders for due tasks, or if a particular set of information hasn''t been logged by a certain time to automatically send an email

Could someone kindly send me a copy of the TextMate macros that pertain to Ruby and Rails? I am assuming they are stored in or can be exported to some kind of plain text file... Sadly I am not yet able to make the leap from Linux (and Windows) to a Mac and I am using Slickedit, which has *zero* built in support for Ruby/Rails. I can add macros and code templates so I thought it might be

Hi, I''d like to use migrations to build my initial database. Is there a gem or plugin that will generate the migration code for initial db if I point it at a live database or sql file? If yes, then can you automatically generate the incremental migrations as well? Thanks, Jason

I''m new to this list, I''m a student in History, Computerscience and a bit of Philosophy from the Netherlands... I have started using rails a few weeks ago, I did read the Agile Webdevelopment with Rails book, and I generally started to love Rails for it''s sheer beauty and intelligent structure... However I came across something that puzzles me quite a bit. It''s

Hi all, I have a problem with an observer. I have a simple observer... class ActivityObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer observe Customer def after_create(model) bind_params(model) @al.action = "create" @al.save logger "#{model.id} : created" end private def bind_params(model) @al = ActivityLog.new @al.user_id = User.current.id

Hello, I''m not sure if this is where to post this, but i cannot find much information/support for acts_as_state_machine. I have a Friendship model which implements acts_as_state_machine. I have an :initial state of :pending, but i would like to create a Friendship model and save it directly with :accepted status. I have tried Friendship.create(:state => "accepted") and

Hi all, I''m running into a very strange but incredibly annoying problem that I just can''t seem to solve. The exception is occurring from a seemingly innocuous line in my code, a simple ''logger.warn("some debug information")''. The backtrace follows: SecurityError (Insecure: can''t modify array)

Hi all: Below is s a dump from script/console in development env. Am I not supposed to be able to find the record later and use the state machine functionality, or have I missed something?

While using acts_as_state_machine, I noticed it doesn''t error when invalid state transition is used. No false return, no exception. By invalid state transition, I mean utilizing an event that does not define the current state as a ''from'' state. Does anyone find this lacking? I would like to be able to catch invalid state transition (such as attempting to fulfill a

(also posted on rails forum: http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?id=21744, then I discovered this lilst and there are many more people...)

Hello! Sometime ago I ran across a webpage where someone had identified the full callback sequence for an object lifecycle including AASM with it''s :enter and :exit and whatnot callbacks. Unfortunately, I can''t find it and searches don''t seem to help. Does anyone have a reference to a page that shows the callback sequence with Acts As State Machine (the gem)? I think
