similar to: Eager loading of polymorphic associations

Hi, I''m searching for a method of eager loading polymorphic associations under activerecord 2.0.2. After some initial google-fu I came up with a link to an enhancement that''s been added to edge: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/8119 Anyone have any idea how long that might take to work its way into a general release? I''m early in development now so I can afford to

Hi friends, i''m usgin the edge version because i need eager loading on polymorphic associations support, but i see this: Message.find(:first, :include => :owner) #This generate this query: SQL (0.000072) SET SQL_AUTO_IS_NULL=0 Message Load (0.000389) SELECT * FROM `messages` User Load (0.001070) SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE (users.id IN (1,2)) And this Message.find(:first,

So I''m one of those nasty people building a self-referential habtm-like Association using the funky new :through stuff. This is about users having friends, so here''s my user.rb: class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :friendships, :foreign_key => ''user_id'' has_many :friends, :through => :friendships, :source => :friend end And here''s

There is a dedicated section about eager loading in the docs. A coworker discovered eager loading does not work in polymorphic associations the hard way :-) so I''ve written a patch that documents it: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10610 There are at least a couple of tickets that implement something that would change that though: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/9640

Hi people, I''m looking into polymorphic associations as a way to cleanup some messy parts of my code. I think they will allow me to do exectly what I need, but since there''s little to none written on this subject, I''d be delighted if someone could shed some light on this. Especially what the different options and needed table structures need to be. Thanks, -

Yesterday I answered a question regarding polymorphic URL helpers on Core ML and noticed that the module has no documentation. I''ve documented it and rewritten unit tests using Mocha. I also optimized some of the code slightly (nothing major, though). The patch also includes two fixes by Geoff Buesing, who has done awesome work in this area in the past.

My app has an association that''s got me scratching my head. I have Users, and Images. A User has many Images. (Yes, another picture sharing app, but it''s for a small niche, and it doesn''t end in -r!) I would like to express a "Favorite" relationship between both Users to Users, and Users to Images. This seems like the opposite of the standard

If anybody on edge familiar with this could help, that would be "great" :) I have different types of things I want to be "reviewable". So, instead of having a slew of HABTM... this new Polymorphic Associations schtick seemed like the best solution. I have everything setup as I thought it should be (so I think)... but it doesn''t appear to be working correctly. Here

Hi, I''m just playing with ActiveResource and I did''nt find anything about the support of (polymorphic) associations. Is there a support at all?

Is there any sort of dynamic finder for polymorphic associations? For example if I had: class InviteNode < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :inviteable, :polymorphic => true end I would like to be able to search by: InviteNode.find_by_inviteable(some_object) instead of having to do: InviteNode.find_by_inviteable_id_and_inviteable_type(some_object.id, some_object.class.name) obviously I

Hey guys, I''ve been thinking lately about polymorphic associations, and I wonder: is there a noticeable or tangible performance "hit" from doing polymorphic associations when you''ve got your database under really high query load? So for example, maybe I have a "message" model, a "user" model and an "administrator" model, without any

I''ve read the stuff about polymorphic associations here: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/UnderstandingPolymorphicAssociations But I''m not sure what exactly they are and what their advantage is. Are they the same as HABTM, but they''re "two-way"? Joe -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Consider the following: class Event belongs_to :event_object, :polymorphic => true end class Asset < ActiveRecord::Base end class EventedAsset < Asset has_one :event, :as => :event_object end EventedAsset.find(:first).event generates the following SQL: SELECT * FROM `events` WHERE (events.event_object_id = 1 AND events.event_object_type = ''Asset'') LIMIT 1

Hey, I am starting my store application again for the 3rd time, I am just trying to get eveything right so that I don''t come up with any more complex problems later. Hopefully someone can steer me in the right direction. I have a store that sells lots of types of product. e.g. CDs, T-Shirts, DVD Each product type has different associations. Cds - multiple artists, multiple genres,

I have two models, Article and Post, that has many Comments. However, both Article and Post are inherited from a BaseContent class like so: class Article < BaseContent has_many :comments, :as => :commentable end class Post < BaseContent has_many :comments, :as => :commentable end and here''s my Comment model: class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to

Hi. I have a couple of best practices questions regarding polymorphic associations, naming join tables and user permissions. Currently I have implemented the user authentication model from the rails recipes book. Basically it goes something like this: MODEL CLASSES: class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :roles end class Role < ActiveRecord::Base

Hopefully the subject line didn''t scare you. That said... I have a simple polymorphic relationship (is that possible?): class Part has_many :attachments, :as => :attachable end class Attachment belongs_to :attachable, :polymorphic => true end Calling Part.find(:first).attachments yields this SQL error: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: Mysql::Error: Unknown column

It was said at one time that Rails 1.1 might be released in February. Is that still likely? Thanks, Don Mc -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Could someone please help me with this association scheme? I am familiar with habtm as well as the :through association but this one has me stumped. Here is an example DB. Tags Table: ------------------------- id name Taggables Table: -------------------------- id tag_id taggble_type taggable_id For purposes of this example say that there are 2 other tables that can be tagged and their model

Hi all, Is it possible to do "eager loading" with polymorphic associations ? Ex : I have a Page model that acts as taggable. When I do Page.find(:all), I would like to retrieve all tags associated with a page. Thanks, Thomas. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
