I have two models, Donor and Contribution, and have has_many and belongs_to set respectively. My question is regarding creation of associated objects. I''ll let the code speak: me = Donor.find(1) contribution = me.contributions.create do |e| e.amount = 164.00 e.category = Category.find(1) end I thought this was valid, but it doesn''t work properly - it appears to

The Insured object has invalid data. I call save! on the quote input. QuoteInput has no validations. I expect two things to happen - 1) an exception should be thrown, indicating that there was a

I wanted to use ARTS to add RJS in a behaviour driven way to my application, but I''m having some trouble asserting a replace_html with a partial. I''ve created a pastie (http://pastie.caboo.se/60694) which contains the RJS I want to spec, the spec which I already wrote and its failure message. I''m currently using RSpec-0.9.2

Why can''t I access an associated model in a validate method? I have some code that looks like the following: Models: class Product < ActiveRecord::Base has_many: upcs end class Upc < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :product def validate errors.add_on_blank(''upc'') unless product.new_record? end end Controller: def create @product =

Hi, I have some problems with an application where I''m using custom accessors to do currency conversions. In my model, I have a price attribute in the database that stores the value in cents, to avoid future problems with float arithmetic and round.

Is there a built-in way to determine if a model object has just been created (ie. this object was the one that was originally persisted)? I can''t see it anywhere in the AR code, but thought I''d check. I want something like: p = Person.create p.original_instance? # true Is this built-in or should I just patch AR? -Jonathan.
