Hi, I''ve just downloaded the acts_as_authenticated plugin but I can''t find much in the way of documentation. First is there anywhere that someone could point me to to get a handle on this. Second.. Does the plugin still require the use of generators to use? Thanx in advance Dan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Folks, i thought it should be straightforward but after a few hours poking around, I decided it's best to post my question on this list. I have a data frame consisting of a (large) number of date columns, which are read in from a csv file as character string. I want to convert them to Date type. Following is an example, where the first column is of integer type, while the rest are type

Hi! I have a table with visits with a visited_at: attribute which is a datetime field. They seem to be stored as UTC. Now I want to count all visits each day and return something like: { 2013-01-01: 8, 2013-01-02: 4, 2013-01-07: 9, ... } So, I did it like this which kind of works...: def self.total_grouped_by_day(start_date, end_date) visits = where(visited_at:

Dear all; I am searching for a way to extract wind direction and speed from a wind rose plot. I have a graph and I want to make a dataframe of 5 years with hourly intervals. > start_date <- as.POSIXct("2019-01-01 00:00:00") > end_date <- as.POSIXct("2023-12-31 23:00:00") > time_sequence <- seq(from = start_date, to = end_date, by = "hour") > df

Hi all, I would like to discuss a design idea I have in mind with you, in order to get critical feedback. ActiveRecord supports single table inheritance(STI) "per se", BUT you must add all possible instance variables(properties) of all subclasses to the "base table"(as columns). I would like to circumvent this restriction. Say we have a class AbstractGenericThing <

Hello It seems that datetime_select, is creating an instance of the Time class. Why would that be? I found this while building a site where people can create vigils (prayer vigils, peace vigils, etc). When I added a validation method that compared start_date to created_at, it generated the error: ArgumentError (comparison of Time with DateTime failed): I was able to put a breakpoint in the

Hi, I have the following problem. In a csv file I have under column A, the date, and column B, the prices. Thus, for example, the file looks something like this -> 1/31/04 2.5 2/1/04 2.6 ... 4/12/04 3.5 Basically, I use the function inputframe = read.csv( ) which reads the csv file into the inputframe. My question is, how can I make a function that has, as inputs,

I have the code for computing a weekly event: (start_date..end_date).select{|d| d.wday == wday} but I am wondering if anyone has any ideas for using this to figure out a recurring event for every other week. Is it possible to somehow specify every other within the .select method? Any other implementation ideas? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message

I''m wondering what the accepted method for doing unit tests on STI models is. I tried to create a fixture for the class but Rails tries to load that data into the non-existent child table. I could create a fixture named for the real, parent table, but then it would be very difficult to test for the individual functionality and integrity of each sub-class. I saw this page

Hello, is it possible to setup a model/table schema like this: Groupable --> Membership <-- Group ^ ^ | | User UserGroup I tried the following but failed: Groupable (table with ''type'' column) has_many :memberships, :as => :groupable has_many :groups, :through => :memberships

I''m currently coding a system which must store multiple contact methods for a user (phone, email, postal address etc). I''m planning a fairly straightforward inheritance hierachy for these, where each different method inherits from something like a ContactMethod class. The only mention of ActiveRecord support for inheritance I can find in the Wiki and the Agile Web Dev book is

I''m having a class called Person, with subclasses as goalkeeper, forward, defender. Now a person can be a forward as well as a defender or a goalkeeper. I want to use single table inheritance like : class Goalkeepr < Person end And not have multiple boolean columns like in my people table like is is_goalkpeer, is_forward, is_defender. How do I go about it ? Thanks, Pratik -- rm

Ok here''s a quicky... but a goody :) We have models Company, Reference and Applicant... and References and Applicants just inherit from Company, and are basically companies with the type field set to reference... All companies can have a phone number associated with them, and phone number is a different model... I''m having trouble using the form_for method with a company that

How to create a super class based on ActiveRecord::Base? For example: class ParentRecord < ActiveRecord::Base end class ChildRecord < ParentRecord end Rails always asks for ''parent_records'' table. Which has absolutely no need to exist at all. It''s intentionally made as a super class to be inherited. Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all, I have a situation with a recurring billing application where I need to test if one range of dates "overlaps" another range of dates. Does anyone know a rails find or mysql select statement that will test for this? Here are the details: * Recurringcharge items have a start_date and an end_date that represent the period of time that the charges should occur. * Statement items

I have one table, called "people". Within this table, there are type "users", "managers".... etc. So, basic STI. Now, I want a "user" to have one manager, but a "manager" to have many "users". Since I don''t want to use HABTM... how do I set this relationship up seeing that :has_one, :belongs_to and :has_many don''t

Hi all, Quick question for STI. With the following setup: class Company < AR::Base; end class Firm < Company; end Why does Firm.find(:all) return all Companies, not just those that have type==''Firm''? -- Alex
