Hello, I got the following issue and I do not know how to resolve it: #1. created parent class (AccountExtended) for some my models (lib/classes_lib.rb): class AccountExtended < ActiveRecord::Base def self.findByAccount end end #2. created model Country: require ''lib/classes_lib'' class Country < AccountExtended end #3. and added a test controller what shows

What''s the best way to set the default value of an optional local variable in a partial template? In the past I''ve used <% foo = default_value unless (defined? foo) %> But http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Base.html says *not* to use (defined? foo) and instead use (local_assigns.has_key? :foo) thus <% foo = default_value unless (local_assigns.has_key?

I''m using the One-click 1.8.7rc2 Ruby Windows installer, everything has been working fine up till now, when i want to start getting into testing, i got this error, any reason why?

Hello all I prefer to use many partials. It makes my code more DRY Also I use rspec, and when I have to test partial with sub partials I have a problem. if I stub render, then my partial will not be rendered. If i do not stub render it tries to render sub partial (and i don''t need this) Not very long googling did not bring the answer, so I made very dirty and IMHO dangerous function

Hi guys, I really like RJS. I think they''ll replace partials in alot of instances. Unfortunately, because they''re automatically used like .rhtml and .rxml and are hard to specifically specify it makes it messy to preserve fallbacks when using them. For instance, using partials instead of rjs, my create method might look like: def create post = Post.new(params[:post]) ...

I''m getting a syntax error when rendering a partial. This is a simple html partial with one instance variable inside it. Rendering as a "template" instead of as a partial works just fine. The error occurs 3 lines after the last line of HTML code in the partial. There is no line 72! Here is the error: SyntaxError in Building_blocks#preview Showing

I''m not sure what happened, or what change has caused this to happen, but render :partial (or any render for that matter, doesn''t seem to let me set local variables via the local_assigns argument hash. for example <%= render :partial ''edit'', :username => @user.username %> used to allow that username was a local variable in my _edit.rhtml partial

Hello, I had an app running on RoR 1.1, now I''m migrating it to 2.1. In a view I have: <div id="user_management"> <fieldset> <legend>Please log in</legend> <% form_for(:user, :url => sessions_path) do |f| %> <p>Username: <span class="notice"><%= flash[:notice]%></ span></p>

Hi all, I''m new to rails and I''ve run in to a rather insidious bug. In development (with caching turned on in development.rb), my app successfully caches action "index" in controller "view": class ViewController < ApplicationController caches_page :index def index # do the stuff that index does end end I''ve got a sweeper

I have a problem with a mismatch between RSpec Rails and the actual behavior when using GetText, and would be glad for suggestions how to best solve this. When using GetText a failure is reported for the following simplified specification: describe SamplesController, "when requesting /samples" do it "should render index " do get ''index''

Hi, I''m getting an error I just can''t find any cause for. The error is "A copy of ApplicationHelper has been removed from the module tree but is still active!" and gets thrown in a Template that uses a method defined in my ApplicationHelper. The error occurs only in development mode. The error did not occur before my switch to Ruby 1.8.7 and Rails 2.1.2 minutes ago. I

Hi all, I am new to RoR and ruby, but am a very experience PHP developer. Let me give an overview of the problem. I have a model Latency, which contains username, graph_name so the logged in user can see his/her latency graphs. In my ViewController I have a fuction view_latency which pulls the correct latency object and runs latency.overview. latency.overview creates a .png file in /tmp, and

Hi, I wanted to be able to use some Rails code inside CSS files, so I set up a controller (StylesController) to serve CSS files that reside inside the controller''s view folder when the browser requests /stylesheets/:action So in the controller I just define empty actions with the names I want my style sheets in (ie: def cooleffects end - that would respond to

Maybe I''m misunderstanding something but it appears as if <%= render :partial => @items, @locals => { :this => ''that'' } %> does not give the local variable this but this one does: <%= render :partial => ''items/item'', :collection => @items, @locals => { :this => ''that'' } %> Shouldn''t they mean

With most models, almost always I find myself writing Search/Find actions. When I view a Listing of a model, I want to look at another record or set of records. How nice it would be if I can do a query-by-example while viewing a Listing, or during Show/Edit/Create. Would be nice if Search becomes another act in the scaffolding magic. This wish has been expressed here before. Since then, has

I''d like to tap in to the expertise here on this list. The autocompletion box at raildock.mytechsupport.com is a bit of a hack right now--the drop-down box is quite a ways off from where it should be, and it would be even further off if I hadn''t hacked controls.js to subtract a few pixels from its location on screen. Is there some guidelines for where and how to place a
