similar to: How to access atributes from a join table?

I have a table "domains", "users" and a join table of "domains_users" which has the domain_id, user_id as well as a userlevel_id attribute. I know that in the model User class I can set the value of this attribute with a function that calls: domains.push_with_attributes(domain, :userlevel => 1) but how do I access the userlevel field so that I can use it later

In my User auth scheme I have a userlevel. I''ve overloaded the User class operators like this: def >(item) if item.class == "User" self.userlevel > item.userlevel else self.userlevel > item end end (other operators are overloaded in essentially the same way). As I understand it, using the operator ">" inside the overloaded

In the Agile Rails book, on page 232 (PDF, 4th edition) there is an example of (within ActiveRecord) marking an article as read by a user at the present time. Short example code (from the book) here: class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :articles def read_article(article) articles.push_with_attributes(article, :read_at => Time.now) end # ... end

On Solaris 10, is there a probe that fires on receipt of an IP/UDP packet? I''ve spent some time looking for one but can''t seem to find what I want. (It''s unfortunate that its not running OpenSolaris as otherwise we''d use the ip provider.) What I''m trying to do is collect data on the latency between a packet being received and it making its way into a

Hi, I have 3 tables with HABTM relation. USERS -> QUOTE_TO_USER <- QUOTES Table QUOTE_TO_USER has 3 attributes: quote_id, user_id, component. I have a form where I can tie multiple users to QUOTE. This is easy one, thru "user_ids" (@quote[:user_ids] = @params[:quote][:user_ids]). In this form I have all users and I just check those I want to tie to this quote, however

I''ve been listening to the discussions regarding the plans to eliminate push_with_attributes. While I think it''s good practice to make join models if you''re developing a new system, I can''t help but think t hat push_with_attributes should be left around to deal with legacy databases. I might want to wrap my application around a database I don''t

I have a join table A_B with columns[a_id, b_id, c_data default 1, d_data default 1]. If I do: @aobj.bobjs.push_with_attributes(@bobj,{:c_data => 0}) I find that the row inserted, has d_data set to 0 and not the default value specified in the database, which is 1. So I am having to explicitly set it using : @aobj.bobjs.push_with_attributes(@bobj,{:c_data => 0, :d_data => 1}). Is this

In trying to add timestamp support to habtm, I''ve stumped on a question which I hope you all help me solve. And that is, when adding a record twice to the list of associations with push with attributes, should the following test succeed or not? def test_pushing_twice dev = Devel.new("name"=>"victor") p =

I have successfully used HABTM to create a many-to-one-to-many set of rows in one step. Now, if two objects I want to associate already exist, how do I create the join row? The Agile book mentions the ''push_with_attributes'' method. The text says this method is useful for adding additional attributes to the join row (in the example a ''read_at'' timestamp). I

Hi, I''ve got the following models: Company Package with a habtm relationship. In my controller, I have a ''dispatch'' action which does the following @companies.each do |company| @packages.each do |package| company.packages.push_with_attributes(package, :sent_on => Time.now) end end my table ''companies_packages'' therefore lists which

We have tables Users and Communities linked by has_an_belongs_to_many. The join table Communities_Users has additional fields [ is_active, is_blocked, join_date] etc. These are populated using @user.push_with_attributes(:is_active => true,...). Later on how do we update or retrieve the attributes in the link table for a given user or a community with doing it explicitly using SQL? Thanks,

Hi, I have a model class called Page and a corresponding pages table in the db. Is there a way to do Page.new without actually creating a corresponding record in the table? I want to set some values in it and then pass it to the add_content_component() method in the class below which calls push_with_attributes() which will actually create the record in the db? class Page <

Let me preface by saying I am not a samba expert. I've messed around with the smb.conf file a few times, and mount to the shares regularly. We are on 10.4.x on brand new Intel macs. We are mounting a samba share that is approx 4.8TB, but only 1.9TB shows as the size of the disk. Is this a known limitation of samba on the Mac, or can it be fixed by upgrading to a newer version of the

I've been using the macports version of dovecot, which is 1.1.11, on MacOS 10.5.6 $ /opt/local/sbin/dovecot --exec-mail imap Fatal: kevent(EV_ADD, 0) failed: Operation not supported This version is configured --with-ioloop=kqueue The problem seems to be known, if not understood: http://lists.apple.com/archives/Darwin-userlevel/2008/Dec/msg00010.html However, if I use

Hi All, Probably simple question: I want to make a share for sharing an lmhosts file which gets included by the clients. This share has to be very public and accept nullsessions (whatever that me be (no username and password?)). I want this because I need to generate aliases on the fly for for our fileserver for some clients (terminalservers specifically). So I thought that having an server

Hi, I''m trying to figure the most efficient way to model the following. I can think of at least two ways to relate the tables but from a client/server perspective! I''m wondering how to best (and elegantly)relate them from an AR perspective. A project has many people, A person can work on many projects at any time, A project has many roles, A role is performed by a person, A

For a while, I''ve been getting that HMT is replacing HABTM. It appears that HMT can do all of what HABTM can do and more. The question is: Should I stop using HABTM? Let''s take a simple case: A case has many categories For a given category, there are certain valid statuses Category has_and_belongs_to_many :statuses Status has_and_belongs_to_many :categories Question: Is

Other than doing a raw SQL update the only way to update join attributes is to remove an object and then push_with_attributes correct? -- Lon

Hello *Gem* experts, Sorry for asking multiple questions in one post but they are both related to one problem. So far I have the following code: class Member < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :blogs, :uniq=>true ..... end class Blog < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :members, :uniq=>true ... end The issue is that
