Hi, I just put together a little mixin to provide pseudo-RESTful services in camping apps. Basically, it looks for a hidden _verb field in form posts, and sets the @method to the supplied value (e.g. put or delete - which browsers don''t support). This lets you define put and delete methods in your controllers. Groovy. Code: http://pastie.caboo.se/22613 Is there any permanent repo of

Hi, all, I need to DRY up some code in a few models. My first inclination, having come from the Java world, was to go with an abstract class. After a bit of reading, I then decided to follow the mixin route instead. Now I''m running into trouble, most likely from a few basic misunderstandings. There are three models I will be using to average and count rating data by executing a

Hi folks, Can anyone share some accumulated wisdom about the best way to spec mixins in general, and (Jamis Buck-style) ActiveRecord "concerns" in particular? The standard situation here is that there''s a bunch of functionality, related by concept if not by implementation, that one wants to inherit in many different classes (e.g. ActiveRecord models) without having to

If I have several models which exhibit the same functionality, it seems makes sense to create a mixin, ''include'' it in each model and save myself some work and repeated code. Where can I define a module which will be available to all models? I can''t seem to find a documented place for them. Alternatively, is there a Rails-standard way of achieving the effect? Ben

I want to include common auditing functionality in my models. This involves storing the changes made to a model in a seperate table : I have created the functions in an Audit module : module Audit before_update :before_changes after_update :after_changes def before_changes old=self.class.find(id).attributes @changes=[] attributes.each do |key, val| if val != old[key]

Disclaimer: RoR newbie. Using the acts_as_taggable plugin. As an exercise I wanted to switch from the destructive TAG_WITH method to adding tags while preserving the existing ones. On the surface this seemed easy enough and eventually I got it working. However, the following method: def add_tags(list) Tag.transaction do Tag.parse(list).each do |name| if

It seems to me that Validations are quite useful for many objects, even ones having nothing to do with ActiveRecord. Common examples are Contact Us forms, multi-step forms, web service paramater validations, etc. I took a look at the source for Validations, and it seems that it is very independent from ActiveRecord. I caught only three depenedencies: 1. validates_numericy --> depends on

Hello all, Not a directly related question to scriptaculous or prototype, but I am looking for a good, dynamic vertical javascript menu. I''ve done some searching and there are a lot of menu implementations out there. I''m looking for something more or less free, but will pay/donate a small fee towards something worth while. I figured I''d ask here to help filter down

Hello everyone. I am not sure if this is the right place to post, please redirect me if there is a mailinglist more specifically dealing with prototype.js. After playing around with the very inspiring prototype library I have found a rather annoying thing, that makes the usefulness of the Enumerable mixin for Hashes questionable, if I am not totally wrong (again :-). Here an example:
