Hello I''m using the ''act_as_authenticated'' plugin to implement a small and simple authentication system in my app. Everything is working just fine and the world is a better place to live in. The plugin creates a ActiveRecord observer in order to send the newly registered user a confirmation e-mail. Per the API docs [1], one should declare the observer in the

I have been using multiple observers, i.e., observe_field(), on the same input field and relying on them to execute in the same order that they appear in the page. This has been working fine in FireFox, but it does not seem to work in MSIE; the requests come in and are processed in a different order. Now, I''ve always been a little hesitant about using this technique, but it always

Am i wrong or do ActiveRecord observers not work in mongrel? Is there a work around for this? I am 100% sure of this because in my observer i put raise "whatever". Whenever I try update the model using the mongrel server I get a successful save. If I do it in webrick I get an exception raised. Any ideas what I should do? Because webrick is pretty annoying to work with. Thank

In most of my tests I''d like to be able to stub out the observers for my models, but I''m not sure the best way to do this. I doesn''t look like there is a way to stub all instance methods, and I don''t seem to be able to stub early enough to stub out the observer as it''s instantiated. I can think of several hackish ways to get around it, but I was

I''m spec''ing a model with an observer that sends mail. Mailers behave similarly to controllers, so to make the whole thing work, I believe something like integrate_views has to be available. Has anyone dealt with observers and ActionMailer? Thanks

We currently have a SOAP server that processes incoming requests. I''d like to rewrite this system (maintaining the same SOAP interfaces) utilizing RoR. What is the easiest way to go about this? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Observers will be no more as of Rails 4, farewell, never been much of a fan. However, I''m using it in one of my gems which enables model attributes for use with a WYSIWYM editor. The resulting markup is persisted, but in order to use it in a view, it has to be nokogiried in a helper which fragment caches the result. This cache has to be zapped once the model instance is either

Does anybody have any experience getting CSS working with RoR on Firefox? I need help!!! I''m trying to move to the <div> model from the <table> model so I can use AJAX. The move to <div>s requires I also start using CSS for layout, etc. So here''s the problem I''m having. Firefox will not use the styles I''ve defined for the <div>s.

I was just wondering what about a report that I made almost 2 months ago: Active Record observers broken<https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/4087-activerecord-observers-cant-be-used-for-before-callbacks> I think it''s a pretty big bug. In Rails 3, creating an observer with a "before_save" callback (for instance) will result in all observed models being

In the Rails Recipes book the recipe "Keeping track of who did what" explains how to do decoupled observing of models. In my application I''d like to do a similar thing but watching the controllers. For example, when somebody hits the login method of the Security controller, I''d like to make a note of it. In this case I could observe the User model and watch for

Hello all, I am new on the rails list, having signed up today, but I am in the midst of some sticky business getting rails to go on my linux system. I am running Fedora Core 4, with Ruby 1.8.4 and Apache 2.0.54. I have setup the chapter 4 tutorial from the "agile book" and everything works absolutely perfectly using Webrick. I got rails 1.1.3 from ruby gems, and since have done an

Hi! I use simtest fonction of multcomp package to compile a Dunnett's test.

Dear R-experts, I need to replace the values of a vector(tx) with a word ('Vehicle') when the value of the vector contains the word 'vehicle'. Sometimes, the value could be 'MCT vehicle', or 'control-vehicle', etc. I tried gsub like this treatment<-gsub('vehicle','Vehicle', tx, ignore.case=T) But then I end up with values like 'MCT

Dear List: I have a data manipulation problem that I was unable to solve in R. I did it in SQL, and it may be that the solution in R is to do it in SQL, but I wondered if people could imagine a vector-based solution. Imagine a list A[i] of observers who observe some set of events B[j]. Each observer i may observe one or more events, and each event j may have been observed by one or more

I am working on creating an R package for doing fire department analysis and am trying to create a function that can display emergency incident densities. The following code sort of does the trick, but I need a display that shows the number of incidents per square mile. I believe the code below shows incidents per square unit (in this case, degrees lat/long). To solve this problem, I believe

I have a pretty complex form with many text fields and a number of selects. We let the user add multiple types of associated objects to the parent object and to edit the values for those associated objs, so the form can have something like the following number of fields on the page: 9 text fields + 3 selects + a*(1 text + 1 select) + b*(1 text + 1 select) + c*(1 text + 1 select) + d*(1 text +

I have a Rails model that has an observer. The function of the observer is to send an email when a particular state change occurs in the model. Because the template rendering code is not loaded when doing model testing, I''ve had to shut off the email functionality of the observer for testing. Is there a better way to handle this? Thanks
