active record bug?
I have some code that generates the following log entries (annotated with #). The code takes place inside a transaction. A record is inserted. Then I get the of the newly inserted record, then I explicitly select that record (this is just to illustrate the problem). Then another insert is attempted and fails because of a constraint that requires one of the values entered to be an existing

Re: DB Modelling the Rails way - solution by Chris Hall
Hi Chris, Yesterday you kindly submitted an answer to my question on modelling many to many relationships. I''ve briefly tried the proposed solution but so far with no luck. Before I get too involved - I''d like to know if mapping three way :join_tables is "legal" in a Rails sense. I only ask since you put (untested) in your mail and I can''t find any docs on

issue with deprecatiing push_with_attributes
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

push_with_attributes not inserting default values
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

Semantics of push_with_attributes
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 =

Use of push_with_attributes
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 <

HABTM - how to insert join row when associated rows exist
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

ActiveRecord, << or push_with_attributes: update if exists?
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

Updating Attributes in a HABTM Join Table
Is there a way to update attributes in a HABTM join table? Right now I am deleting the join and then recreating it with new attributes. I have a table "categories" and another table "items". They are both HABTM with the join table "categories_items" between them. If an item is joined to a category once, no problem, we create the join. But if an item is

How to retrieve attributes from HABTM?
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,

Storing additional data on join tables with Rails
Hi there I need to store additional attributes on join table. Searching the Wiki [1] revealed two possible methods: 1) push_with_attributes, as described by Justin Palmer [2]. Unfortunately, "this method is now deprecated" [3]. Even if it wasn''t, there seem to be inherent problems with that approach, for example with updating those additional attributes, though Joshua Muheim
